My neck has large patches of skin from my thigh and enough nerve damage from surgeries that recoil makes a difference. Besides that ,all else being equal, everyone shoots a 243 better that a .338
Man that sucks, regarding the nerve damage. Sorry to hear that.
I think that I have a pretty high tolerance for recoil but agree that less recoil is easier to control and for self spotting impacts. I have three kids and something like a 180 at 3000 from a 6-8 pound rifle isn't my idea of a good tool for learning. In fact, I haven't seen many adults shoot a 6-8 pound rifle well, let alone spot their own impacts. No brakes on hunting rifles.
On a side note, I was spotting and filming for a recent ELR match and a bunch of shooters were not able to spot impacts in Light Gun past a mile with brakes and cans. Weight limit was 26 pounds, and you probably have an idea on TOF.
