[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2302446, member: 75451"] If the person is any kind of decent rifleman, it should not be “necessary” to sit all day at the bench all day with any rifle.....it’s an option! A “shooter” can be proficient with a magnum without sending hundreds of rounds downrange in a session, or even in a year of sessions! Proper rifle fit is a prerequisite for comfortable, accurate shooting! Just yesterday, I shot 15 rounds through my .375 AI and 8 rounds through my wife’s .338 WM with no ill effects......done without brakes on either! And yes.....I can still use my arm today! 😉 Unless it’s the “only” rifle the shooter owns....other firearms can been used for practice shooting or enjoyment! You shoot a few rounds through the properly fitted “magnums” to remain proficient and to prove your zero. If the shooter (?) cannot shoot the magnum proficiently during the occasional practice outing...they need to be honest with themselves, as many do, and select another cartridge to hunt with. Or, God forbid.......put a weed-burner (muzzle brake) on it! Magnum is only a word.....few of us would fear a .22 Magnum! My 45-70 pushing 430 grain bullets @ 1900 has a bit of recoil.....but, doesn’t come with the word magnum in it’s title! 😉 memtb [/QUOTE]
