[QUOTE="MQ1, post: 1649263, member: 18287"] I had my C5/6 disk replaced 3 years ago, and suffered for almost 5 years before the replacement surgery...so I am speaking from experience. Buy a 25-06, and look at loading up some 115 Noslers Partitians. Minimal recoil and excellent downrange performance that is greater than you would expect from the caliber. I had the opportunity to test run 7mm-08, .243, and .308...but the hands down winner for me was the tried and true 25-06. I had my gunsmith put together a 7lb Model 700, and it has become one of my all-time favorite rifles, taking deer, pigs, and a 1 shot elk that never took another step. Since my successful surgery 3 years ago, I can comfortably shoot any caliber again...but my 25-06 will probably never get sold because of how easy it was on my neck when I really hurt. MQ1 [/QUOTE]
