[QUOTE="tmwtrfwler, post: 1649219, member: 72596"] Alright. Cleared to shoot and not lift more than 50lbs. Treatment is some shots in the neck and some pill to help pain. Time is the healing plan for now. So after discussions with me based on my thoughts, input from this thread, and his dr’s input on recoil tolerance he’s gone the 6.5 route. Funny thing is he went the spend $ route. Big time. He picked up a Nosler M48 long range in 6.5 creedmoor and a Leica ER5 3-15x56. He wanted the weight and light gathering. Should come in just a hair under 10lbs. I’ve had luck with Nosler rifles and those Leica er5 scopes (mine are 2-10x50). The mag ballistic reticle is far from perfect but we zero to MPBR anyway at the distances we hunt. Use that reticle for anything really far which is always steel for fun. Thanks for all the input guys. No BS the entire 10 pages. That’s rare for a web forum! Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
