[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 344028, member: 10"] About like a 25-06 in a standard sporter weight rifle.... If that, recoil is a very subjective thing. Most of my customers tell me recoil feel less then what I discribe it as . Lets just say it was very easy to see the bullets impact at all the ranges I tested her at. I could see where at ranges under 300 yards it may be a bit more difficult to see bullet impact but beyond that, it would be very easy to see bullet impact. The rifle "feels" different then a conventional rifle. Most conventional rifles will have somewhat of a vibration to then after firing. This is simply from the vibrations in an unsupported barrel. The Raptor LRSS feels much more like a heavy V-Block rifle, there is nothing you feel after the shot. Many may not know what I am discribing because it is very suttle and if you have only shot conventional rifles, this has not been felt but there is a "solid" feel when you shoot a V-Block rifle and its the same for the Raptor LRSS. Cold today but tomorrow, new years day is supposed to be warmer so I am going to try to get out again with the bird of prey!!! Will clean her up good first thing in the morning and then head back out to tweak the drop chart a bit more. Just talked Bill on Oklahoma and he said there may be the possibility for a 1400 yard class shot on the ranch I will be hunting. Better get her fine tuned and ready!!! I will try to take some better range pictures tomorrow, always can use a bit more gun porn!!! [/QUOTE]
