[QUOTE="CBH Australia, post: 2224404, member: 116486"] [USER=79296]@the blur[/USER] I have both in Tikka rifles and I've had 2 other .308 sporters. My brother has a Browning X Bolt timber stock and is has a short sharp kick. I've shot all sorts of projectiles from my .308 up to 180gn soft point factory rounds. I run a Limbsaver recoil pad and I think it makes a lot of difference onany rifle. My brother has had a Brake fitted and it reduces recoil and increases the perceived blast at least what the shooter hears. I sat near one at the range , Yey. I don't think .308 need them. Consider running lighter copper bullets in lieu of heavy bullets for Elk. Consider a Limbsaver. Consider his hearing if you choose the brake option. I reload I have used plenty of 125 Nosler BT from the .308 as I was aiming at faster and flatter with low recoil for shooting from a vehicle targeting pests up to hog size every chance I got. The shorter Tikka CTR is the truck gun now but maybe it's just the right .308 with the right load you need. [/QUOTE]
