Thinking about a new pump 12ga to take to the range/home defense. Looking at something basic such as the Winchester 1300 or the Mossberg 590. Here's the clincher...I've fired many different types of rifles being in the military for 20 years, but never a shotgun. What can you compare the recoil of a shotgun to in terms of a rifle? The shotgun rounds I figure would have to be 2/34in OO since that seems to be the most common type defense round.
