Bloom is just unrealistic for a Spartan. Think about it. The AA-12 shotgun (the real one, not from MW2) has a special butt that absorbs the recoil making the gun have VERY little recoil. On FPSRussia's YouTube Chanel he shoots them one-handed. I've shot a shotgun a few times and the recoil is pretty big. Not if we have that technology now in 2011 with normal human beings, think about what kind of recoil reduction technology there would be in 2552 with a Spartan. And Spartans are pretty tough. They can fall from space and live. Why not be able to handle the recoil from a gun that probably has very little recoil.
