[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1175257, member: 10755"] This is difficult to quantify, because, felt recoil is perceived, free recoil is a figure put on a swinging rifle in a cradle without anyone shouldering it. Rifle stock design has a far greater influence on felt recoil, so, once again, it's difficult to answer. My belief is that rifles that have a straight comb, with little drop, are more comfortable to shoot than rifles that drop dramatically at the heal, like a lot of shotguns. A good recoil pad is second to none for controlling recoil, those hard immovable pads a lot of rifles come with do nothing in taming heavy recoil. I have rifles ranging from 17 Rem to 505 Gibbs, anything above 30 cal has a Pachmeyer Decellerator, I'm not a fan of being beaten to death by my rifles!! Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
