I often wonder why when I read threads referring to lite caliber and or lite bullets for any game hunting. Why not just go up in bullet weight such as this op 75 to 100 gr well constructed bullet, recoil difference is almost nil.
Will it kill deer sure it will but so does a .22 short if placed properly.
I have had 2 shoulder surgeries in my life one was a total replacement to my butt stock shoulder three months prior to hunting season all I did was go from a 300wsm to a 257 Roberts with 117 gr8 bullets that season to kill 4 deer.
