I love shooting 12ga shotguns. Except for one. An old bolt-action Westernfield shotgun. Most uncomfortable gun I’ve fired. Manageable recoil, but it always left bruises.
I’ve done 12 and 10 guage shotguns. The biggest thing I’ve shot was a 30 ought 6. The sound was worse than the kick. Really shoulda had ear protection for that fucker.
I’ve been happy with every other 12ga I’ve shot. It’s just that one particular gun that I hate. I think the solid butt plate is narrower. It feels more like getting hit with a hammer than kicked by a mule.
Grand dad’s 16ga coach gun… [Chef’s kiss]. Hard to find ammo for it, though.
