[QUOTE="captacademy, post: 938730, member: 7159"] The 375 is not low recoil, it's just a lot lower than my 416 mag. I am not recoil shy, but would rather shoot the rifle with the least recoil that has the punch needed for the game I am after at distance. If my 6mm Creedmoor or 260 would work for dangerous game, I would use those calibers. I really enjoy shooting them in tactical matches, they're just fun to shoot! However, when I hunt elk, it's the 7mm mag, or 338 Lapua, for ER. All my rifles except the DG rifles have muzzle breaks or suppressors, heavy recoil can make me sometimes develop flinching if I am not watching myself. Dangerous game, cats it's the 375 H&H. The 416 mag I use for buffalo. No need for these unless you are going to Africa or Alaska. I hope your shoulder heals up! The 270 is a great caliber, I hunted with a 280 for years and really liked it, was a good all around rifle for medium range. [/QUOTE]
