My reply was aimed @ the question regarding the lowest recoiling 28 ga shells available.

If another gun is an option, I'd suggest a SxS or O/U 20 ga w/ the Fiocchi Trainer loads. Much easier to teach proper gun safety w/ a break open gun vs an auto, and if she ever pinches a finger in the action of an auto, she will be done shooting for sure...


Always looking for small bore Francotte SxS shotguns.
