[QUOTE="Leslie Sapp, post: 986321, member: 74272"] memtb's post about his scope cut reminded me of this story my daughter told this week while recuperating from her 13 week vacation on sunny Parris Island, SC. We don't have any black rifles at present, so she shipped to recruit training having never fired an AR15 or any other .223. When she finally got a chance to fire her rifle "Jaeger", her coach warned her to expect a loud noise and a "kick". She snuggled up behind it in prone position and squeezed one off. She said it went "pop" and the sight picture hardly moved. She then looked up at her instructor with a puzzled expression. He asked, "Something wrong?" She said, "I thought you said these kicked." He said, "They do kick." She said, "It doesn't kick nearly as much as my rifle at home." He asked, "What do you shoot at home?" She responded, "A .264 Winchester magnum." He laughed and said, "Well, in that case, no, these don't kick.":D [/QUOTE]
