[QUOTE="joe0121, post: 512697, member: 26058"] I'm a big guy, but my 12 year old sister in law can easily handle my .300 win mag. A bipod, and muzzle break really does a lot to take away recoil. Also consider the .338's such as the 338 win and rum, can get the guns on the cheapish. Components and ammo may be a bit much though. Also 30-06 or the plain old .308 are readily available both for reloading and on the shelf. I am in the boat not of gathering all the reloading gear I have a single stage and all the goodies for my win mag but I want a progressive to feed my mini 14 and pistols. But that is a lot of $$$ so I have been hitting garage sales and looking for used stuff online. I am squirling away money and if a Dillon progressive press presents it self over the winter ill be all over it. Oh over on sniper central in their gear shop there is a sling called the tactical innovations sling, it is the same one now being issued for the m-24 sniper rifle. It is the best sling on the market period! Takes some training and getting used to but I can now shoot my win mag standing and that saying a lot it is a heavy pig. A good sling does a lot for your accuracy and soaking up a bit of recoil. Slings IMO are one of the most over looked components in a field craft rifle.
