[QUOTE="gliechty, post: 64611, member: 2026"] 4ked horn, I tried the recoil calculator and came up with different #s. A 9.5 lb 460 wby came to 119lbs which is what I have also read. My 300 ultra at 8.5 came to 40.4 and a 338 lapua imp, 17lbs, 300gr bullet, 115gr powder at 3000ft/sec came to 38.7. The same 338 at 10.5.lbs is 62.7. Half of the 460 wby. A 17lb 338 seems totally usable to me [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]. A muzzle brake should tame recoil that much more. Thanks for the link. LiteTac [/QUOTE]
