Daryl I doin't know if I have that post I would like to read it though. I had no idea that these guns were as light as they are. It wasn't to bad to shoot standing up but I can't do my best shooting that way also I didn't try standing till the last 4 shots from the rifle so I was already sore. I just might have to look into building a standing bench for testing I could use it with my .72 as well. I think that with a PAST recoli shield I wouldn;t have to much trouble though I used one when I was shooting my frinds 458 and 416 rigbe put a lot of rounds through them with out any discomfort at all all full power loads so I know that they work. As a hunting gun it will be fine as you carry it more then you will ever shoot it I just hope I will be able to get a lode that will shoot to the sites and at lest put 4 rounds into a 4 inch circle at 50 to 75 yards.
