    depends entirely on the load.... seriously go and find some 30 or 32 grm loads...falcon do some...gamebore do some ...winchester Xpert do too...we have killed birds with all of them. they are noticably less in recoil than the 35-36grm loads.
    steel loading recoil more than lead...BUT a lot of it is the noise factor...EG I made up lots of 7/8th oz and 1 oz steel loads going along at 15-1600fps...they didnt kick stuff all but mate were they LOUD.... definately wear earmuff material.
    my bakail U/O is rather brutal to use for long without recoil pad with steel loads...slip on the pachmayer and its completely different gun to use.
    still interested to know what load it is you have been using.
