[QUOTE="hawk45, post: 3040909, member: 27634"] Unless you have a health issue, why worry about recoil with a hunting rifle? How many shots do you plan to take in a row. Maybe 5 to sight in once a year. Now if this is really just going to be a range rifle, I could see the reason for lower recoil. I always like a KISS approach, especially with supplies getting harder to find and rising prices. I say anything in the standard 308 cartridge size (308,708,6.5,243,etc) that meets your need on barrel length powder burn efficiency. Since you reload, you can load down and use lighter bullets to lower recoil. [/QUOTE]
