[QUOTE="Hntelk, post: 651345, member: 39807"] TBP, I went down the road you are on a few years back, father is over 70, on Coumadin, shoulder problems as well and other medical problems so I had to select the right gun. So after much research and time I went with a model 70 Winchester, 3 position safety, 300 wm , wood stock, big bright scope ( zeiss 3x10x50) and the icing on the cake was the muzzle brake. Kicked like a 243 and he had no problems shooting 20 rounds at range w/o fatigue/flinch or excessive bruising on the shoulder. This gun weighed around 12 lbs so it could be heavy to carry so I also bought him the mini-me eberlestock so he could slide his gun down middle of his back and still have his hands free and not be too much off balance...( don't need any broken hips) I also had the bog-pod for shooting off sticks...the tripod as the bi pod he was too unsteady. Hope this helps, good luck [/QUOTE]
