My 37 year old son and I call it "recoil therapy", but we're usually out at the range 2 days a week shooting targets and steel out to 500 yds with our precision rifles. Pretty easy unless wind really acting up. We shoot out in the open desert to 1000 yds or more with our 2 338 LM rifles about twice a month. Occasionally shoot pistols indoors when the summer heat become oppressive at 5 AM. Haven't done any hunting in years, but still love shooting and just now getting into hand loading-another new adventure. Be Safe!
