[QUOTE="OrionsStar, post: 2033612, member: 50448"] Well my friend I feel your pain! Pardon the pun. I have 3 artificial disks in my neck and a four level fusion in my thoracic. I started off with a light .243 win no break. I bought a 6mm CM for the faster factory twist (no break) so I could shoot the Hammer Hunters I wanted. Both are very tolerable/mild. While in that process I was having a 6.5 SST being built for me. Well I just recently got the barreled action back and dropped it in an old stock, while my new one is being built as I write this. I had my smith put on a Little Bastard 3rd gen break on it. Let me say I have fallen in love with that rifle/bullet combo. Very, Very light recoil! For your purpose, I highly suggest a similar setup. Remember if you go copper you will need a faster twist due to the length of the bullet. I should add, the hammers are amazing with terminal performance. I can’t wait to get the stock so I can hand load up some perfect cartridges! Good luck with your back and quest! IMHO the 6.5 SST & Hammer combination will be hard to beat for guys in our situation. Thanks to all on this board, many blessings and gratitude! [/QUOTE]
