I am curious if anyone can compare perceived recoil differences between Remington 11 (or Browning Auto 5) and Mossberg 500 or 590. I am considering a swap, but not sure I can take more kick than I am getting now.

I tried a Browning O/U and, with skeet loads, it was as mild as the Model 11...can I expect the 590 to behave similarly?

Finally, what is the going price on it, with ghost ring sight?
