[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1135961, member: 74902"] That's tough. I don't have shoulder issues yet. I would try a 6.5. Something like a Creedmoor or 260 rem. I would make it a medium weight rifle and put a break and a good recoil pad on it. Then maybe wear one of the protective shoulder pads that some of the big bore boys use. A 6.5 Creedmoor will take an elk for you at reasonable distances. I have Creedmoor on a 14 lb. long range rifle without a break. I could (almost) put it to my nose and pull the trigger. Good luck.
