Whats the hardest kicking gun you ever fired?

A gun we called "the pipe". 12 guage coey with a shortened 20" bbl.

It couldn't have weighed more than 5 lbs, maybe.

I fired a 3" magnum federal 1 1/4 oz slug, and, my goodness, it was just BRUTAL.
 
Thought a .500 nitro was bad till I cut an H&R 20 ga single back to 22" and put a variable choke on the end for use on my ATV, thing kicks like a mule
 
Only gun I ever flinched with was my Rem 700 BDL in 375RUM with 300gr bullets at 2920fps.

Backed the velocity off to 2750 to 2800fps with the 300gr bullets now and reinstalled the LSS stock...
 
Mossberg 500 shooting 3" 385gr sabot slug's.... 3 shots and I'm done good thing it was sighted in when I bought it cause that would have sucked.....lol...
 
I know my 12 gauge Mossberg 500 kicks pretty good with 3 inch shells. I think it weighs about 7 lbs? The worst shotgun I shot out of was a 12 gauge 3 inch in a single shot (Cooey?) that weighed 6 pounds.

I would think 12 gauge 3 1/2 inch in a Synthetic Model 87 Express Super Magnum like my son owns would be pretty brutal?
 
Hardest kicker

Hands down a Remington 700 Classic I had re-barrelled to .300 Ultra-mag several years ago....nasty! Thing just beat me up worse than .375 and .458's I've owned.

#1 458 win mag 500gr max elephant loads....loaded 20 of those. After that...checked the regs..no elephants in my area....Dont do that again.
Switched to H 350's, nice solid "push" not the instantaneous "wack" of the 500's. Prior to that a weatherby 340 mag, two shots from the prone position..got up,, handed the rifle back and said " you can keep that"
 
I shot a Sako stainless synth in 300 Win Mag offhand was really nasty.
Terrible pad and still the most hurty rifle I've shot, and that includes my 9.3x62 off the bench and a friend's 375 H&H.
