[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1207509, member: 30902"] Ok, I can see that now. I know it as the M1917. They are definitely known to kick far harder than an 06 should, something about the geometry of the action just doesn't lend to tolerable recoil. I thought Dad's 06 had killed me that first shot but I was just a little squirt and the heavies recoiling rifle I'd shot prior to it was the old Remington Woodmaster semi auto in 243. Hell of a wake up call it was! I have always flat out loved the Schabel and until a guy has shot them free hand he'll never understand that it's really a marvelous practical modification that is quite valuable. Even wet you'd be hard pressed to lose your grip on the fore end with a Schnabel stock. All of my Ruger No 1's had them so I learned to really appreciate them quick shooting prairie dogs. [/QUOTE]
