It also seems that 12ga ammo is very different than when I was growing up up in the late 70’s and early 80’s. The ammo has gotten faster 1300-1400fps or more, 2 3/4” seemingly being replaced in popularity by longer 3 and 3 1/2” shells with heavy payloads. I am sure this plays into the recoil issue for the modern generation.
