I usually want all the velocity I can get within the safety envelope, but 2,500 (+ change) fps with 250’s in a 7#, 12 oz rifle provides all the recoil I’d ever care to eat.
For sure, the moose had it far worse than my shoulder did, but I kinda found my personal limit with that load. It’s been eye-opening to see the load books show even hotter recipes since I worked that one up.
