454 Recoil
I have two 454's - a 10" bull and a 15" heavy taper which is mag-na-ported w/four ports. To me, the 10" bull has a lot less recoil because of the weight. I have special forends for my bull barrels that I don't believe will fit the tapered ones (I haven't tried though). In my opinion, the biggest recoil reducer for the Encore is the rubber grip. Use a fancy wood one for display, but come shootin' time, put the ugly rubber one on.
