[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1246194, member: 30902"] A Rum in a 14lbs package isn't bad to shoot at all. I have three of them in Remington Senderos, all with good brakes on them and they are fine to shoot from the bench, prone, off of sticks or hanging it out the truck window. I always however encourage anyone thinking about going with any of the large case magnums (above .300wm) to find a range that will rent you one or a friend that will let you shoot theirs before buying or building one. Some people are just more sensitive to recoil than others and of course even a light weight 7mm Rem will beat you up pretty good if you are at all sensitive to recoil and don't have good technique in managing recoil. I have a rather light 300wm, 300 Rum, and 7mm STW and they are all quite manageable and tolerable. There are three things you can do to deal with recoil other than avoid it, you can fight it, you can reduce it, or you can just go with it. Fighting it hurts, the rest don't. [/QUOTE]
