Really about the same as the 20 gauge buckshot. Nothing you'd go WOW what a difference. Different ammo brands could be more or less though. Lot less than the 12 gauge buckshot.
Assuming good technique you can go out and shoot the 20 and mostly enjoy it, the 12 is like punishment. Not manly enough I guess.
For some perspective and context...
20-gauge, 5/8 ounce slug is .62 caliber; energy is equivalent to two .44 MAG rounds hitting an individual simultaneously in the same spot.
