I can use some type sissy bag or pad on the range to help with recoil. I don't shoot many hunting loads before season, just enough to know I'm on target and how it patterns at various ranged in 10 yard increments. (About a dozen last season and six this year.)
I don't seem to feel recoil in the field when the bird is in the sights.
I want a light gun because turkey hunting requires a lot of walking and carrying the gun but not much shooting.
