No it's not a shotgun just a springer jumping around. To combat this I have added a weight to the barrel and during my trials the gun recoils back but no jumping about, in I don't hold the rifle just cradle it... I'll post a few targets later this week.
Hi I'm based in Kent, UK and I have been shooting for a year, been through about ten rifles but now settled and very happy with a model 24 whose birthday is today 03/94 makes him 31. I have given him a makeover as he is doing well
