I shoot about 40 rounds every time I take the .500 Jeffery out. That is the only way to master that kind of gun.
After shooting - sure I can feel the shoulder a bit

, but it does not effect me when I train with the gun.
I guess the Heym Express is build well when is comes to balance and recoil. One could get a finer gun made by a custom maker like Harry Baelder but they might not handle so well!! Then again they might

Cheers,
