[QUOTE="AROKHUNTER, post: 1521078, member: 42089"] I’ll throw my $0.02 in. No matter which cartridge you choose, stock design will make a significant difference on felt recoil. Especially when you are talking about a lightweight rifle. And there is a difference in the type of felt recoil with different cartridges. Some are more of a push vs. more of a punch. I’ve had a lot of different rifles, and just for example, I had a 300 WSM that I MUCH preferred to shoot over a 308 I had. Lots of factors play a part. I suggest that you pick a cartridge that: 1) Is enough to get the job done 2) You are confident enough with that when you pull the trigger, you know it’s a done deal 3) You are comfortable shooting without any worries of recoil or doubts of bullet performance. I believe that if those criteria are not met first, it won’t matter what you choose. [/QUOTE]
