About
What it is, and why it matters
The Fabarm XLR Chesapeake is a gas-operated semi-automatic waterfowl shotgun chambered for 3-inch 12 gauge. It uses Fabarm's Pulse Piston gas system and TRIBORE HP barrel with a 6mm rib, and ships with a Cerakote Midnight Bronze receiver, a True Timber Strata camouflage All-Terrain Composite stock, and a set of INNER HP flush-fitting chokes plus one extended choke. Offered with 28-inch and 30-inch barrels in right- and left-handed configurations, it is aimed at wetland and blind hunting.
The Chesapeake takes its name from the Chesapeake Bay, one of North America's premier waterfowling regions, and wears True Timber Strata camo tuned for tidal-marsh duck and goose blinds.
MSRP around $2,595 (right-hand) / $2,845 (left-hand). Part of Fabarm's XLR5 semi-automatic family; magazine capacity not published by the manufacturer on the product listing.

Trajectory
What the round does downrange
Solved from the muzzle figures and the bullet. The dashed rule is the effective range on the record, and the crosses are the steps the solver returned.
No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
