The 28 is why God gave us MEC. Given the choice I too would opt for the 28. I wouldn't be without mine.
Re: the 12 gauge. I switched to 7/8 ounce loads for 90% of my 12 gauge shooting. Turns it into a pussycat recoil-wise and still kills efficiently. Heck, I only use 1 1/8 ounce loads for waterfowling anymore.
