The recoil of the weapon is not the problem, but its weight and therefore top-heavy. As I get older, this causes me problems getting the weapon to my shoulder quickly. The recoil of my rifle caliber 500 Schüler is much stronger but the weapon is lighter and better balanced. This rifle will be preferred in the next few years, be it for many reasons I have to take rental rifles and satisfy me with smaller calibers for hunting big game. But I want not shoot an elephant with a cartridge 375 H&H Magnum.
