I suspect there is a lot of recoil.
What weight would the 8 gauges weigh? I'm sure its far more than an 8-9 lb 12 ga gun.
Most folks shoot 1 1/2 ounces of shot . But I’ve never heard of any stipulation on charge weight . Of the ones I’ve owned they weighed anywhere from 13-16 pounds . Typically the larger the payload the more recoil . 1 1/2 ounces isn’t bad , 2 ounces I find rather stout .
