Re: What's your RECOIL TOLERANCE???

I can't comment on the big ones because I've never shot a .458, .470, etc.

For some years due to a shoulder condition I had a lot of trouble with recoil of any sort but as I've improved somewhat 30 rounds at a stint is no problem at all from my .375 and 40 or 50 rounds not too bad. Before I had the shoulder thing a day at the range meant 80 or more rounds of .375 and I never had ill effects.

Some years ago I bought a cheap $70 H&R single-shot shotgun and modified it so I could carry it while elk hunting, to shoot grouse. I put a youth stock on it and hacksawed the barrel back to just legal OAL. We named it "L'il Stubby". The gun weighed just at 4 lbs and it was amazingly accurate with rifled slugs even without sights, though after running a couple boxes thru the little bugger I came to deeply appreciate my wife's soft bosom and tender caress...
