[QUOTE="Timnterra, post: 1647806, member: 55944"] I don’t enjoy recoil, lots of guys act macho about that kind of thing but I don’t care. I want to enjoy my shooting experience and as a result I shoot heavier rifles. I have a 7lb 30-06AI and it is not a pleasure to shoot more than a couple times. I was firefoming brass a couple weeks ago and after 30rounds from the bipod on the bench I was done and so was the sling swivel stud that held the bipod, It sheared off. I would rather carry a 12lb rifle all day and have confidence of making the shot every time than a 6lb rifle with a flinch. I’m not a big fan of muzzle brakes either because I don’t hunt with hearing protection and I don’t like the concussion in my face. But that just me. My unbreaked 300win recoils less with 212gr bullets at 2950 than my 30-06ai shooting 178grbullets. [/QUOTE]
