I have shot a lot of rifles and I don't know of any that I have fired that kicked worse than John Barsness' 9.3 BS which is a short action 700 with a 350 Rem Mag case necked to 9.3. I think it duplicates the 9.3x62 powder capacity. Maybe the rifle is just light, I dunno, but it was worse than his 375s that I shot the same day.
My 340 may kick harder but not by much.
