[QUOTE="PartTimeHunter, post: 1447086, member: 100292"] Is there anywhere that has a number rating to the recoil? Seems to me I saw an article that had a number value attached to it with the 6.5x55 having a value of 12.9, 30:06 at 23 but 6.5x47 wasn't listed. I'm looking at a hunting rifle for my fiancée and she is concerned about recoil (currently shooting a .223 no problem) and was considering a 6.5x55 because of the low recoil and ability to take any game around my place within the distances presented. Then I started thinking about the 6.5x47 but can't find much info on it as far as recoil goes. I wouldn't think it would be too bad but.... don't want to scare her off of shooting or hunting by giving her something that is going to hurt her. Yeah I know - old post but it came up in a search I did [/QUOTE]
