...Experience, it's a great teacher, and sometimes it pays to pay some heed to folks that have it.. It's a lot less expensive if you can learn from the mistakes of others, but some things we just have to screw up ourselves before we learn. Just ask my ex-wife. The more I ask questions here and read other BPCR forums, the more I learn what to do, and, more importantly, what NOT to do. Ed

I think more accurately, get an ultralight .300 Weatherby and let folks shoot it. It will kick their ass for you. My LW 338/06 AI pushin heavies is worse than my 110 with a 530gr PP...

I can assure you, an Ultralight .300 Roy, loaded with 165's and a fistful of R22 kicks worse that a light .45-90, slinging 500's.

Worst kickin' thing I ever shot was a Model 94 Trapper. Fit was atrocious. Added a pad and lengthened the pull and it's no worse than a growed up .338 Win Mag. fed max loads under 250 and 300 gr bullets. 510 grains from a .45-70 at about Mach 1.5 is a pussycat, comparatively speaking.
Have never met a big bore that hurt anything but my ears. And the target.
They all overpenetrate.
I am..........disturbed.
