Would the RST 2 3/4" 3/4 oz at 1100 FPS have less recoil than the Win AA's at 1300 ? If so, Would it be enough difference in recoil to consider buying the RST 1100 FPS shells for her ?

Your thoughts ?
All things being equal the 1300 fps load will generate 8.5 ft lbs of recoil energy in a 6 3/4 pound gun. The 1100 fps load will generate 6.1 ft lbs of recoil energy in a 6 3/4 pound gun. 39% more recoil with the 1300 fps load.
