wow. when i did this post i would guess i would get about ten responces. but it seemed to be an argument. I probally will be using a slug form what i have read. 12 gauge slugs have 1 1/2 and i normally shoot 1 1/8. I was wondering about teh recoil. i would liek to know experiences. i haev looked at chuck haws page. if memory servers me right it is 23 and 42 or something in that vicinity. just can anyone tell me how much more felt recoil there is between a slug and birdshot?
