I have a 10 ga Browning Gold (semi auto)and it has much less recoil than my Benelli 3 1/2 in 12 ga. I have added a recoil tamer from Benelli and that does help but it is still more recoil than the 10.
not saying it aint true, but thats hard to believe. my sbe2 kicks just as lightly as my 20 gauge shotgun with duck shells in did. mine does have comfortech however.
T:
That 10ga the good doctor owns is a good 3-4 pounds heavier than your SBE2. Not to mention, it is gas operated and a 10ga is restricted to lower pressures than the new hotter 3 1/2" 12ga's. So the recoil will be less, probably much less.
And that comfort-tech stock you have does make a world of difference. I, like you, noticed that the recoil on standard 3" fowling loads out of a SBE2 resembled a 20ga.
