With slugs i mostly just use plain lead. However i have used wheel weight with 2% tin.
As long as you are below 1300 fps the recoil shouldn't be more than a normal AA Trap Load. I would think you could shoot 200 of these in one afternoon and be fine. In Shotgun Payloads 1 oz. is 1 oz. doesn't matter if it is shot or slugs or sand it all weighs the same so the shell doesn't know the difference. But 1150-1200 fps might work a little better and be easier on your shoulder and the meat..
You still got pretty good results, but slowing down the slug a little might not waste as much meat?
As is sits these are the most Vicious Slugs I have seen so far. Dang Rusky's anyway!

If i remember correctly the last one i weighed was 585 grains with the wad attached which i think is like 1.33 ounces. Its definitely over 1 oz
As far as the alloy these are behaving like i cast them with wheel weight with 2% tin
