So I've stuffed the rear stock with the shot from 25 shells of 7 1/2 birdshot, 12 gauge, all wrapped in a ziplock bag and cotton fabric...

I've also ordered a limbsaver to replace the recoil pad that came with the gun...

Finally, I'm trying to get some low recoil slugs (again, I have to shoot slugs at the NRA range)...

And of course, I'm trying to learn good technique.

Is there anything else I should do to ensure that my early days of shotgun shooting go smoothly and I don't develop any issues from the gun kicking my a$$?

Thanks again for all the free education, gents!
