4 ft lbs difference.....I just dont think my kick o meter is good enough to detect that difference in a side by side blindfold test.....certainly stocking and fit of the rifle to an individual will make much more difference than 4 ft lbs

I suspect most of ya all that are finding Mashburn recoil alot different are using lighter bullets than 175 to 195

a load ive used alot in 300 roy is about 76 gr 4350 under 180s....so size of the powder charge doesnt always have to be much different

I do think the Mashburn is best of the breed if you want a 7 mag....just enough powder capacity to get what the 7 Rem mag users wanted all along without going to the ridiculous powder appetites of the STW or RUM
