I hadn't noticed that Bob, maybe you could point out where anyone has made the case that no one can handle "300-338 level" recoil?


I've noticed it.

You read it all the time with the condescending nonsense about how people can't manage recoil and therefore a 300 magnum is a lousy choice.

Hell I've even said it myself at times LOL!

That's despite spending a couple of decades hunting elk with 300 magnums..... grin

I am not going to waste my time chasing down and citing specific examples.....this is a discussion forum, not an examination. We don't get paid for this crap.. wink




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
