[QUOTE="Cheyenne 1, post: 1026496, member: 9735"] I can tell you in my opinion. I really do not like the recoil of the short mags. I have shot them in all calibers from 300 to 270 and 7mm and in all different kinds remingtons, browning x-bolts to lever actions, winchesters. They all seem to jump. I would way rather shoot a long action magnum in any of the above calibers. ( I also do own some short mags) One other thing is I have a lot of people bring guns over in the magnum calibers for me to "sight in" for them. Reason being they are scared to shoot them. Most of them are light weight short barreled 300 magnums of sorts. And do really kick. I find that a lot of the more inexpensive guns that are in the magnum calibers are the the poorest design and kick the hardest. So stock design and weight have the biggest impact on recoil. And if you find a gun you like and it kicks to hard have a quality brake installed and it will be all good. [/QUOTE]
