[QUOTE="RFtinkerer, post: 526259, member: 34460"] I wouldn't say the 300 WM is THAT big and painful, at least not in this rifle. The muzzle brake on the Bear Hunter helps a little (not as much as it should), but even without it, my shoulder was only a little tender after 50 rounds or so. The shoulder pad is nice and squishy--I think that helps a lot. I'm not a big guy, nor am I playing the part of a MAN here, just an honest report. I almost prefer to shoot without the brake just because the blast is less--I think that makes me flinch more than the push on the shoulder! The worst problem with the recoil is staying on target after the shot...I need to work on that. But get the 300 WM, if *I* got it, it most assuredly is the superior round. :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
