[QUOTE="BEEMAN, post: 1294810, member: 38130"] My 6.5X47 Has virtually no recoil. It is heavy though at 15.5 lbs complete with a 4 port brake. I just finished building another one that will finish at 8 lbs complete with a 5-25X52 Z5 BT. Haven't shot this one yet as the stock is getting Hydro Dipped. It wears a 25" Benchmark #3 fluted. For those closer range shots you could go with a cheaper bullet if you want. Also mine has no feeding or extraction problems. It is a full Custom built by R BROS on a Defiance action. Second one is a Remington 700 SA blue printed and trued. I don't look at Lapua brass as expensive because of the quality and longevity. I have read of guys washing out a X47 barrel on their original 100 Lapua brass!! [/QUOTE]
