.....Edited to add....

And the SAUM has LESS recoil than the 7-08 with "Heavies"


147's out of a Saum, prone with a sub 7 pound rifle is gonna end rather quick personally.

The Creedmoor Fieldcraft I shot, didn't seem to snuff recoil as well as my Montanas either, but I didn't spend more than 20 minutes behind it.

Argue the 10% less recoil thing all you'd like, the Creed is a serious sweet spot and makes the SAUM mostly unnecessary.



I'd also like to point out that I spelled unnecessary without spell check, so I have that going for me. Which is nice.


Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!
