[QUOTE="McDewbie, post: 512027, member: 33945"] I have looked about 20 pages in on this forum (basics starting out) and another one I cant remember and I can't find any info on recoil. I have found a basic table, [url=http://www.chuckhawks.com/recoil_table.htm]Rifle Recoil Table[/url] and a calculator to find out roughly what your recoil is [url=http://www.handloads.com/calc/recoil.asp]Recoil Calculator[/url] just remember that this calculator and table are the mathematically correct amounts and are NOT what you are feeling. With that said I am a novice, to say the least, of a LRH, so any info from people who aren't would be greatly appreciated (I'm sure someone is going to find this helpful besides just me). Also wondering if anyone has some ideas to up the weight of a gun, without destroying it structurally, so as to reduce mathematical recoil. I would like to forget about the effect recoil pads have as that is my "whoops my math was off" contingency.
