[QUOTE="LVJ76, post: 1707004, member: 108965"] With practice you do not tire after 40 rounds. Here in AZ, the State Shooting Championships we shoot 40 rounds Precision Rifle in the morning and then 40 in the Hunting class in the afternoon on both Saturday and Sunday. Also keep in mind the precision rifle is heavier than the hunting version. The recoil of the 7mm-08 is pretty mild and you also get used to it. Practice is key and as I mentioned before you can practice with the 22 LR on the smallbore range to get used to the weight of the rifle. I'm sure they also shoot smallbore every month so that will also help get in the rithym of the competition. When practising, use the timer not just shoot at the silhouettes, like if you were at a match, it will help a lot And I still recommend the 7mm-08, my wife is 5' 2" and 120 lbs, she is so used to the recoil now that she'll shoot a few rounds with my 7mm Rem Mag whenever we are at the range practicing, she says its more fun.
