Mehul,

It is not that I can tolerate recoil. I really do not like it one bit. But I limit it at the range to 5 or 6 rounds from the 8.7 lb. Lott and about the same from the 9.6 lb. 470, and that is off-hand.

But when hunting one carries them a lot more than shooting them. Who was that said recoil last a second but gravity goes on forever? And of course one doesn't perceive much recoil when shooting game. And I am either going to hit whatever I'm hunting or not, and shooting 500 rounds at the range isn't going to change that.

Different strokes I guess.
