Yep, get that. So, what do you think felt recoil is with a 10 gauge Parker weighing 10 to 11ish pounds shooting an RST 2 7/8 inch shell with 1.5 ounces (guessing) of shot? Does it drop into 30 lbs of felt recoil.
Size of load makes a difference as well. Is it in the 40 to 45 lbs range or is it less. Have shot plenty of 12 gauge 3 inch shells with my pump that weighs between 8 to 9 lbs and that is a healthy stomp to the shoulder, but I only do that duck hunting and when you have some heavy clothes on my guess that load is produces high 40s to somehwere in the 50s of of felt recoil.
Just wondering never shot a 10 gauge.
