The 8 gauge we had at our power plant replaced the Remington 12 gauges we kept wearing out and was tripod-mounted for blowing slag off the boiler walls. The gun was rented from Winchester and the ammo purchased directly from them
Swopjan - since a 12 gauge pheasant load of 1-1/4 oz @ 1300 or so is right at a 30-06, the 8 gauge will have more recoil
