It was a long, slow, learning curve (learing curve in if you're in MN) but recoil is manageable by reducing your payload. Having a gun that fits you reasonably well and shooting lighter loads that still accomplish the same results on target applies no matter what gauge you shoot.

If a gun doesn’t fit (think LOP and pitch), you’re going to feel the recoil no matter what gauge it is. I shoot a 12 gauge about 95% of the time these days and I go through a lot of shells. Recoil is not a concern. Smaller gauges are the “in thing”, but for my purposes I’ll stick with my 12’s.
