They have the same powder loads...
Are you SURE? Just because they have the same "dram equivalent" doesn't necessarily mean it's the same exact powder. 10grains of xyz powder can be totally different in reaction/burnrate/powder than 10 grains of ABC powder. (And as said oldtimr said, are the shot loads the same? Obviously 1.5oz of any shot will recoil drastically different than 2oz of just about anyother shot.
And if you want to FORGET about the recoil of either loads you are talking about then just get you a Mossy 835UM and load it with 3.5" Hevi-shot Tri-plex 2.25oz loads from Nitro Ray... TRUST ME, you'll forget ALL about the "recoil" of anyother 12ga loads!
