N320AW

Hey, welcome to the place where dreams may come true. Many of the posters here never thought they ever hold a Double and now they own one.

A 10.5 pound 470 would kick less than an 8.25 pound 458 just from a physics standpoint of weight alone. A well fit Double will also feel like it has less recoil than it does because of the balance and fit it would have.

The Rigby is famous for being a strong recoiling rifle and at 9.5 pounds would also be more than a 470 IMHO. I have not run the figures, just guessing.

What kind of rifles are we talking about?
