Had fun as the Combat Systems Officer on a double ended 5 inch 54 caliber destroyer on several occasions.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Largest I ever pulled the trigger on was 40mm. OTOH, I said "Fire Mission, over" a lot. The results were inflicted by 105/155/8" and 175mm artillery. The 8" guns were remarkably accurate, the rest were area fire for the most part. Kinda like the difference between ordinance delivered by A4's versus A6's. A4s couldn't hit their own ass. A6's could drop them in your back pocket. Kinda like C130s and Daisy Cutters. God, how I loved Daisy Cutters.
I am..........disturbed.

.500 A-Square. It was a beast, but honestly wasn't as bad as the .460 Wby due to the heft and beefy stock design.

Worst recoil I've experienced from a long gun and handgun, respectively, was a lightweight 12 guage with slugs and M_Stevenson's cut down Ruger Super Redhawk in .480 Ruger. Firing 5 very stout handloaded rounds through that short barreled (4"?) was quite memorable. I could feel the effects of that. 480 from my wrist to my shoulder for quite a while afterwards. Yeah, those were 425gr LFN over a stiff load of H-110. They chronographed at 1220fps. Arthritis in my hands caused me to sell the 480 and my Freedom Arms 454. I miss both of them but my hands don’t. As for biggest/hardest recoiling a CZ 458WM, Ruger Magnum M-77 in 416 Rigby and a 425 Express, didn’t compare to a Marlin 1895 in 50 Alaskan with 570gr cast bullets. That thing stunned my shoulder so bad I couldn’t rack the action. It came unlocked on every shot too, makes me think it’s a bit too much for the platform.

.50 BMG single shot Barrett - nicer than expected. .375 H&H pre 64 M70 - also nicer than expected. .338 mag - lots! Brother in laws Monte Carlo stocked .300 Win - Hated It!
