NEW DOUBLE RIFLE TECH?? GRACOIL RECOIL REDUCER!!
#62096 - 04/09/06 08:56 PM

(Promotional Propaganda!!)

Tired of getting battered by that big 577??

Gracoil says they can make all that nasty recoil go away by installing this in the butt of your Double!!

The principle is simple. The system compresses 5/16" and spreads out the recoil impulse over time like a shock absorber so the WHACK (recoil velocity)isn't as violent!!

How exciting!
(Propaganda Over!!)

Does it work?

I dunno, I haven't got a clue-- but I would sure like someone to try it on their Double before I mess with mine!!!

5/16" seems a very small amount in which to absorb the recoil impulse from a .577 , best wait for someone else to pathfind if it works or not !

Didn't or doesn't Gracoil make shotgun recoil systems for shotguns. If it's the company I'm thinking of they've been around for years. Browning did install a recoil supression system in one of their sporting clay guns several years ago. It only compressed about 1/4" and recoil was zip. I'm recoil sensitive and bought the first one in town. Was like shooting a dream. Only one drawback, it made a loud snapping sound when it compressed that I could never get used to. Shot it about 3 months but my scores actually went down (they weren't great to start with, I'm not much of a wingshot) so I traded it. It did really eliminate the recoil though. I believe Winchester also once tried a system on one of their guns that had a Rear portion of stock that slipped over forward portion. The system was called the Hydrocoil system and the stocks were plastic. They were on Mdl 12 Trap and Skeet models.
