The less work the gun has to do to move you, the less the perceived recoil. If you are a linebacker, you're going to know something happened when you pulled the trigger.
A (230lb) trap shooting friend asked if he could shoot my 450-400x3 1/4". I advised him against it, and he soon learned why. I think I was about 160 lbs back then.
