Assuming this is a 12 gauge, get the new light loads.

The difference between 7/8 oz and 1 1/8 oz at the target usually isn't crucial. But, all else equal, the 7/8 oz has roughly 25% less kick.

A good pad,even a slip on will also help.

Adding weight will also help, but that counters the great portability of thses singles.

HTH....
