I have been using 16ga Kent Matrix in 1oz and 1 1/16oz for several years with very good results. Really don't see much difference in performance between them and the old lead loads I used for ducks back in the day.
Usually when duck hunting I'm wearing at least a parka or jacket and recoil does not seem to be a problem while hunting. Like mentioned before, if shooting a round of sporting clays with them, I'm sure they would get your attention as they have a bigger punch than my 3/4oz clays loads.
I bought a bunch of 10ga Federal tungsten at Cabelas on a closeout a few years ago for much less than it would cost to buy just the non-tox shot and have been breaking them down and reloading the shot for my 16ga guns.
