Weatherby VAnguard deluxe 300 wby absolutely sweet shooting --recoil is not an issue 180 grain Factory Ammo

RUger M77 338 wood stock --recoil more of a push then a shove - quite docile 225 Remington Factory Ammo


I would like to try out a 340 weatherby but would have to make a custom vanguard deluxe to get that , think the Mark V would have more felt recoil.

I have fixed several brutal-recoiling Savages with a simple pad change...


Worst recoiling rifle I have ever owned and it had a 1" recoil pad.

And I have spent a bit of time looking at that very stock to see what can be done to avoid every aspect of its design!

Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.
