Still Waiting For My H&R
My friend owns a police supply store including firearms, he also can get firearms for hunting, etc. So I placed an order with him for a H&R Ultra Deluxe 20ga., the day it came in I went to pick it up, either he ordered the wrong one or there was miscommunication with the supplier, they sent the Ultra which is the same as the Deluxe, but it doesn't have the cut checkering nor the laminated stock. He replaced the order, but seems the suppliers he deals with are out of stock for the time being, he did call H&R, they are shipping them out within a few weeks, no rush plus I get whatever I want at dealer cost

RE: Still Waiting For My H&R
The Ultra's don't kick bad at all. I have the Ultra Deluxe in 12 ga. and it handles recoil much better than any pump or auto slug gun I have shot. Then again it weighs a TON. Weight is a very big factor in how a gun recoils and the Ultra deluxes are heavy. They have the heavy barrel, a laminated stock and a steel bar inside the stock to balance out the barrel.
Then you have to throw a scope on it as well.
I think mine with a scope and sleeve that holds 5 shells weighs close to 12 lbs. Not bad to shoot, but you don't want to carry that sucker very far.
The 20's are probably similar on recoil since they are a bit lighter. Might even be worse with some of the more stout loadings.
I think your going to like it as long as you don't do alot of walking.
I'm thinking of getting the 10 ga turkey barrel for mine.

Good thing you got a 20 gauge, I hear those 12 gauges are some ofthe most ridiculously kicking guns out there!

A 12 gauge pump gun will kick harder han an H&R load-for-load, guaranteed. Also the H&R USHs are fitted withone fine recoil pad.
