[QUOTE="ol mike, post: 229293, member: 4683"] Howdoo , I'm recoil sensitive -my cut-off point is a 270 w/ 140gr bullets in a sporterweight rifle. I'd guess a 308 w/ 168-175gr bullets is in the same ballpark if not more recoil ,w/out a brake i'd say forget the magnums . Have you seen the berger 150gr vld in .277" =270cal. ? They have a bc of nearly .6 and would do well on mule deer to 800yds and elk at 400 -i guess. I'm not clear on whether or not you have a 270 now ? Anyway -personally i'd shy away from the big 300's w/out a brake -and maybe look at 6.5 caliber also. Not sure about a brake that blows the pressure forward? That would seem to go against the way a brake works? [/QUOTE]
