Actual recoil is only a function of gun weight, weight of shot and velocity of that shot.
Felt recoil is a subjective quantity and you find 'theories' and I use the term 'theory' loosely, all over the place but mostly concerns what is technically called 'impulse' or how the force applied acts over time. Shooting a 2&3/4" shell in a 2&1/2" chamber may cause other problems but not recoil related.-Dick
