[QUOTE="Reelamin, post: 2490347, member: 42157"] I've shot a lot of the slugs both in pumps and Benelli M4's. The M4 is recoil not gas so it eats a little recoil and not close to a gas gun. I would say in a 18" 870 the slug has more recoil. The important thing is it is totally different. The slug is heavy and semi sharp, and the rifle tends to be much sharper and quicker and less heavy. I am not recoil shy and shoot magnums up to a 300 RUM in a 9lb rifle pushing 180's at 3400. That being said my adult son says he wants to try hunting. I want to get him a 7RM, 300WM, or a 300WSM if I have to. I will down load them to 06 level until he wants more recoil. The best thing you can do is swap out to a quality recoil pad. I am a big fan of Sims and they help a little. [/QUOTE]
