Just because a person prefers lighter recoil doesn’t mean they can’t handle higher recoil. I’ve fired plenty of .378 Wby class rounds up to .50 Cals, without issue. I primarily elk hunted with a .340 Wby for several years and also took bears and caribou with it without a problem. I just saw zero gain to it as opposed to more mainstream rounds, even with Wally World special bullets.
That doesn’t mean I prefer heavy recoil, especially for the small gain in velocity you (might) get. I do appreciate being able to recover from the recoil faster as well as using less powder, especially with powder prices.
