I will back up your claim to the No. 5 Enfield Jungle Carbine. It's not so much the recoil as the muzzle flip. Scoped one and the thing jumped up and drove the wire of my Ray Ban glasses deep into the bridge of my nose. Being younger and dumber in those days, I shot again just to see if it was a fluke. nope. Still got the scar.

My top three miserable shooters:
#3 - No. 5 Enfield

#2 1895 WINCHERSTER in .405

#1
.460 Weatherby. They muzzle blast alone from the brake will make your head ring. Roy can have that POS.
