As for my worst experience, strangely enough, I remember it coming from a lowly .30-06--my Ruger M77 MK II loaded with Federal High Energy ammo. That rifle/ammo combo rattled the fillings in my teeth. I'm no tough guy when it comes to recoil, but I've shot some rifles that kick. Not even Safariman's .416 Rigby kicked like that '06 with those stupid High Energy rounds. I had to go shoot about 1000 .22lr rounds afterward to get rid of my flinch.
