[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 3667441, member: 27991"] 1. Operator error, not gun malfunctions. Which you identified. Those pistol grips may look tacticool to some people, but they are a bear to shoot. 2. Buckshot does not matter. The pay load, ie. 1 1/2oz, remains the same. Regardless of size. 9s to Buck. The powder load, listed as dram equiv (a reference back to BP); along with the shot payload is how you can relatively compare recoil. Game load is typically, 2 3/4 DE 1oz Field load is 3 1/4 DE 1 1/4 oz and will recoil more. Heavy Field is 3 3/4 DE may carry as much as 1 5/8 oz load. With a pistol grip and a light weight gun, they KICK. I got an extremely good deal, on a Presentation Grade Coach Gun. The original purchaser bought the gun. It has 3" chambers. He bought a box of Heavy Turkey Loads. MAX DE (>4) 1 3/4oz 6s 18" barrel SxS, he fired 1 round and sold the gun. I have shot it extensively, at Cowboy Action and it is flawless. I tried some 3" heavy loads, once. Those are for the 8# 870. [/QUOTE]
