Those "featherlite" guns do come with a price don't they? The best recoil pad in the world isn't gonna stop it from barking like a dog and trying to jump out of your hands when you shoot it. Trade the featherlite in for a few extra pounds of carrying weight and you'll be shocked at the difference.
Personally , I wouldn't spend the $$$ on a rifled shotgun to turn around and use the girly rounds.
