Hi MCB:

I like to shoot the big bores. I have my 375 H&H breaked, but I bought it that way. I have a custom break on my 416 Rem Mag, I had that installed. I have a Ruger 458 Win Mag, no break, and just a lil red hard recoil pad and it kicks less than my 416 Rem Mag.

I also have a custom 458 Lott, weighing 12 lbs. It has two mercury recoil tubes in the stock with a muzzle break and a desellerator recoil pad, and from the bench it ROCKS my WORLD. Nine or ten shots seems to be my limit from a to low bench. Thats a 500 grain @ 2350 FPS.... ouch Standing up it is much better, but I have met my match with the 458 Lott.

Regards... Jim P.
