Went shooting my Bond Arms Ranger II last week I was apprehensive about shooting 410 shells from a small barrel. I was pleasantly surprised by the recoil of the Sellier and Bellott 2 and 1/4 000 3 pellet buck shot. The recoil was very moderate, and performed well at 10′ I also shot the Winchester PDX defensive disc 12 pellets combo. The recoil was stout in comparison to the other brand. I did upgrade to the Jumbo rosewood grips and will give another range report. Overall very pleased with my Ranger II it rides with me everyday as my primary weapon. Thanks Bond for a winner.
