[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1472965, member: 30902"] I've shot as heavy as .405gr and it's no pick nick. Big bores like this though don't hit as sharply as our modern magnums so while the recoil can move you back a few steps it doesn't hurt in the same way. If you're going to shoot heavy recoiling rounds you need to learn to manage, rather than fight the recoil. Let your body be a shock absorbed rather than a brick wall. The way the difference was explained to me years ago was the difference in the velocity of the recoil vs that of our modern high velocity magnums. [/QUOTE]
