[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 427959, member: 22335"] I've got a Sendero in 7mm Rem mag, and my other main rifle is a 7mm Wby mag. The Sendero weighs enough that I am not bothered by the recoil - and this is with a "not quite perfect" rotator cuff due to a car accident many years ago. With a shoulder recoil pad I have shot many rounds out of my Sendero with zero issues, and the Wby really isn't bad either. The Sendero is currently shooting 140 and 168 grain bullets with no noticeable difference in recoil. So, I would not let the bullet weight affect your decision with regard to recoil. Pick the bullet you like, and go from there. FYI, using the Wby with 154, 160 and 175 grain bullets Dad and I have taken elk and deer with zero issues. These are more than "arguably just enough" in case you wondered. [/QUOTE]
