[QUOTE="esshup, post: 1187911, member: 11101"] Greyfox, I have been shooting my Browning Citori O/U since the mid 1990's and I did a few things to reduce the recoil. 1) I had the forcing cones lengthened to 4" and polished. 2) I added a TrapDude gummy recoil pad (really, really soft). 3) Sent the stock to Shooters Emporium to have them install their "Soft Touch" recoil reduction system. [url=http://www.softtouchstocks.com/]SoftTouch Custom Stocks - Home of the Soft Touch Recoil Reducer[/url] All the things that I listed helped, but the Soft Touch helped the most. I used to shoot a LOT, roughly 25 - 30 thousand rounds a year. Many of those (around 300 shells a week) were when I was playing the shotgun games. 1 3/8 oz at 1380 fps (4 dram load) The Soft Touch started to lose it's seal around 120,000 rounds, and talked to them at the Grand about it, They had it changed out in less than 20 minutes with a new one, and it was less than $100 (out of warranty). I have a G-Square Recoil reduction system on my Model 12, and I like the Soft Touch a tad better. I also had the shotgun fitted to me. While that may not have reduced the recoil much if any (it was pretty close from the factory), it also improved my score. [/QUOTE]
