[QUOTE="Jon Bischof, post: 1852234, member: 879"] Shooting the 7-08 for a while may even help you with your 30-06 groups if recoil sensitivity is the problem. No man wants to admit any sensitivity to recoil. But it is a physiological fact that recoil affects us whether we know it or not even if we real men never admit it. most of the time, if you think you may have a slight flinch or quiver--you do. That's why the 22 LR shooting can help you overcome it. You can't shoot T-Rex Ultra Mags for too many rounds before it has an affect on you. Ideally, you should only test hard kicking rifles for a few groups at a time and then shoot something softer or quit for the day. And a Tikka T3 Hunter in 30-06 (what I have) is a pretty stout kicker due to the light weight of the rifle. Sometimes I actually wish it were heavier. Used to have a 7 WSM A-Bolt. Nice rifle, good cartridge but no fun to shoot because it was just punishing at the bench. Didn't need that much for whitetails anyway, so when the original owner asked to buy it back I was happy to let him buy it back. Sold my 300 Win Mag for the same reason. Still have my 338 Win Mag just in case I need to shoot a dragon--you never know👹 [/QUOTE]
