[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1788738, member: 30902"] It can be tolerable but even the most efficient brakes on the market can only reduce felt recoil by about 60%, maybe 70% at most. Identically equipped rifles compared to a 300wm and .264 wm or 6.5 PRC will have lower felt recoil by about half. You can greatly reduce the "rocket motor effect" with a quality brake or suppressor but you can't eliminate the equal and opposite reaction. Heavier bullets, more powder, you're just going to have more recoil. [/QUOTE]
