I think I calculated the recoil in such a heavy gun would be about that of a 223 or around 13 ft lbs which is barely anything at all .

We arent allowed to shoot shotguns at our local range so I will have to field test loads and see what works best . I will probably buy a case of the 1 1/4oz loads .
