[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2271234, member: 118816"] I somewhat agree that unless one is used to heavier recoiling rifles the 300 or 7mm mags are a bit much on the shoulder out of the box. I have also found that by simply having a good muzzle brake installed the recoil can be tamed down. I have a Browning AB3 in 300 Win Mag, 26 inch barrel and had a custom muzzle brake installed by America's Gunsmith Shop in Kenosha. Unlike many brakes there are no ports pointing down on the brake, thus no gasses being diverted down into the dirt and sand to blow back into your face. The result of the installation is that the 300 mag has about the same recoil as my Browning A5 shotgun shooting 2 3/4 inch hunting loads. [/QUOTE]
