[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2875457, member: 10755"] I used to like big bangers, still have several, but in 2017, 2 years after I had already destroyed my right shoulder, I irreparably destroyed my left shoulder…carrying such rifles very far is not an option. Luckily I make my own rifles, so I set about making SA rifles of much lighter carrying, but still capable of taking large game. So, I made 3 switch barrels on REM 700 and Win Model 70’s, in 22-250/22-250AI 6.5x47 on REM 700 SPS, 6.5x47 and 7-08 on EW Model 70 and 260 and 260AI on REM 700 VSSF II for prone shooting, has had less than 20 rounds put through both barrels, haven’t even fireformed half a dozen cases. It’s my Dad’s favourite, but I don’t shoot anymore. Anyway, this helped me a lot, little recoil, and lightweight rifles that you could build heavier if you wished, but are just easy to lug around and shoot off rests. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
