Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Express Rifles and Big Bores Only How "big and strong" must one be to handle the recoil of a true Big Bore?

Little Fern was a marksman with her lightweight 375H&H killing bears back at age 9. By the time she was 10, it was routine for her to out shooting most full grown men she encountered while sighting in at hunting camps. Her mastering the recoil of a lightweight 375H&H was not a result of her tiny size, just as the size and weight advantage of the full grown men was not a factor in their inability to match Fern's skill level. Fern's marksmanship was a result of proper training and precise execution of sound technique.

I seem to recall Shoemaker's daughter, Tia, being an expert for using the 416 Remington Magnum for hunting Alaska big game. I'd imagine she'd also give many a run for their money when it comes to capabilities with a big bore rifle.
