Hi Yannairis, one reviewer on Bud's said "with this shotgun being so light, the recoil is a bit nasty." It has a soft rubber buttpad to absorb some of the recoil, but the recoil is still close to 'kicks like a mule'. You can a;ways try some low recoil loads such as these https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/117165/winchester+ammo+aa12fl8+aa+low+recoil+12+gauge+2.75+26+gram+8+shot+25+bx+10+cs , Stay safe & have a great day!

Hi Yannairis and welcome. Recoil is at a solid 8. You can drop it to a 6 with low recoil loads : https://www.budsgunshop.com/search.php/q/12ga+low+recoil ----------------- You can drop it to a 4 with this recoil pad : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/133969/lyman+04428+pachmayr+shock+shield+rifle+shotgun+osfa+black -------------- Cheers and stay safe!

it can vary to such a large degree because of different loads that you can use A heavy 3 inch 12 ga load will kick like a mule (10) a standard 2 3/4 inch shell would be a 6/7 a 7/8 low recoil target load around a 4/5. as a reloader I can load 3/4 oz light loads that would have almost no recoil

50!!!!! Gonna send you back about 10 foot after you pull the trigger!!! Okay, just having some fun. As mentioned, it will depend on the ammo you'll be using & your recoil sensitivity.
