A Serious Question

One of my students brought out an ultralight .300WinMag. Every step had been taken to reduce weight. Didn't weigh it, but it was so light, it felt like an empty stock. Destroyed a brand new Apel mount. Ended up putting a Picatinny rail and Badger rings on it just to stand up to the recoil.

Shooting them is one thing. Dealing with the recoil from a light rifle is what I don't want.

I recoil at the thought! memtb

my learning curve came from shooting two kimbers, a montana and a hunter. a 257 roberts and a 7mm08, not big kickers, but very fussy what you fed them and how you held them.
