The 500 weight listed seems heavy. Mine's 10lb 10oz. Feels pretty much like my 458Win Mag in recoil, 105gns at a
just over 2000fps with 570gn Woodleigh.
Calibre / Bullet Weight in Grains / Bullet Velocity in fps / Powder Weight in Grains / Gun Weight in Pounds
570/2000/105/10.63 - Recoil Energy of 68 foot pounds, and Recoil Velocity of 20 fps.

Of course gun fit would make the world of difference.
True, felt recoil and how the rifle moves back would be determined a lot by the design of the rifle and stock design.
