Wrong guy to pick on here Chris... I watched him shoot a scoped big bore revolver at 100 yards better than many here can shoot a scoped rifle off a bench...

Just sayin...

I think if they were shooting at a rogue snow machine running their dogs down, they wouldn't notice the recoil too much until everything was over. But I agree that they are NOT fun to shoot.

I've carried everyday since early 2000's a 340 PD loaded with 158 gr. hard cast at a little over 1000 fps....put down a 200 lb. black bear between the eyes at 3 feet bullet recovered against diaphragm....my ears were ringing for a the rest of the day....

I wear a pair of leather gloves with light insulation and can put 3 out of 5 shots in a 6" black at 100 yards. with a 2 hand hold....about 20 shots is enough for a session....38 wadcutter loads are fun to shoot...lol

If I knew that there was a possibility of dealing with a moose or large bears my 329 PD would take the 340 PD's place....
