Yes....recoil will get your attention, but really is quite manageable. I finally started using a PAST recoil shield, when shooting from the bench. At just under 9 lbs. scoped, loaded, and slung....you wish it was a pound or two less when carrying, and a pound or two more when shooting! It’s been my only hunting rifle (to use) since 1990, so it’s not bad ....or I’m numb! crazy memtb


You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong." -Bob Hagel
