Holy crap. Sorry for the late reply guy's I haven't been on in a while. I appreciate all the feedback. JE your explanation is exactly what I was looking for. I didn't know about the bullet v. gas recoil but the way you explained it makes sense. Thanks again.

I've been considering a 300WM recently and have been reading about cartridge efficiency, overbore and the like. I came across something regarding powder charge weights and their relationship to recoil in short mag's vs standard length magnums. Maybe those of you who own or have shot both can...

Good morning from Kuwait LRH! I'm looking for some insight and personal experience with a couple long range scopes; specifically the USO ER25 w/MPR and the NF ATACR F1 5-25 w/ MOAR. Does anyone have any experience with either or both of these scopes? Eye box "forgiveness," eye relief...
