My neighbor has one just like this minus the red dot. Borrowed it on one hunt last year to see if it would do what he said range wise. When I shot at this turkey, I guess I was not holding onto the gun tight enough but I thought it separated my shoulder. Never have experienced pain from shooting a gun that almost made me vomit until I shot that gun.

I don't know if they make the h&r 10's different than the one I have, but mine doesn't have bad recoil... I know mine has a lead rod in the stock supposedly, do some have it and some don't?

Probably had to do more with the funky position I was trying to shoot from and not holding on to the gun very well. I know it did not have a butt pad so that may have added to the punch. That gun was real heavy so I would figure it would not have kicked like that. I'm a good size guy 6'3" 275 and it was all I wanted that day.....no mas H&R 10G por favor

I got the same one, except i took the rod out of the stock.

its got alot of recoil, but its not really that much more than a 12ga with 3 1/2's

Where did you find a rail mount for the 10 single? I have the same gun that I'm trying to put a red dot on, but can't find the rail mount needed, and the holes (predrilled) are too wide for my scope

I finally had the opportunity to shoot some 3.5 Hevi-shot #4s 2 1/4oz in the new 870 yesterday. Man, what a difference that shell makes. I had 18 pellets in the kill zone, 48 pellets in the 7" circle and a total of 102 on the paper at 40yds.

The Magnum Blend is too expensive to shoot for target practice, IMO. So these #4s will be playing backup to that come March 16th.

If you have one that you're not looking to use, id love to take it off your hands. That would help a ton. I'll pay whatever you need as well as shipping, etc

If the recoil is too bad, just shoot 3"...
