My Rigby don't hurt on the back end but you don't want to be playin' catcher. Can't tell you how much fit matters...in rifles as much as shotguns. Yup,it was just "too much gun" for me and that does not bother me one bit.

There is something about those glasses.
You guys can have them big guns. They're like a bad mule, they kick to hard and make to much noise.

Only rifle I ever shot that I really, truly didnt like was a .458 Lott.... 460 Weatherby was my nemesis. One shot was all it took to convince me I didn't want one.

Held a .460 Wby. [/quote] Saw one hanging on a wall. That was as close as I cared to get.

I shot Gunner's 8 Bore muzzleloader and .577 NItro at the Hog Hunt last March.
The 8 bore is fairly violent. The .577? If I was being charged by an elephant, and the .577 was laying there in front of me, I'd have to think about it...

The 8 bore is fairly violent. Know a fella that doubled one of those (SxS cartridge gun) not long back. To avoid a long dissertation I paraphrase: "The sky turned purple." PTO

I know a guy who doubled a 470 Nitro....supposedly VERY experienced shooter...blah blah blah....but he showed his true colors when he wrapped his fingers around both triggers.... Yeah. I loved it!

The pitfalls of recoil can be largely avoided if one takes an analytical approach to the problem.

[quote=ingwe]Only rifle I ever shot that I really, truly didnt like was a .458 Lott.... got it cheap, along with 18 rounds. Guy said he'd won it in a raffle and only had two rounds down the tube. I put a 1" limbsaver on it and loaded 300 gr. TSX's at 458 win mag velocities. IIRC, it was a pussycat. LOL Best GWB
