I'm shooting the 25-06/110NAB combo at 3160fps out of my Tikka T3 Lite. The recoil is very manageable. I've considered trying the 80gr TTSX to cut the recoil even more. I know that bullet has a ping-pong ball BC, but I doubt that would matter much out to 400yds and I have other rifles for use out further than that.

Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.
