Yep and then some. I use mine for anything I' m going to use a shotgun on. I agree with WorthlessNut when you bear down on a animal you don' t notice the recoil! BUT (theres always a but) when you pattern with 3 1/2' s it sucks. The only other advice is (do as I say & not what I did) MAKE DANG GOOD & SURE it' s seated in your shoulder before pulling the trigger.................vertical shot on a canadian goose, the ol' collar bone was sore for 3 days! The worst part about it .............I missed! That' s why they call it hunting & not killing!
