Shotguns: most powerful under 1 joule

The 20 most powerful under 1 J shotguns in the database, out of 30 with data.

How this ranking works

We rank replicas in this category that stay within Italy's 1 joule limit by energy. Within the limit the real difference comes from hop-up, barrel and accuracy, which we do not measure.
