Interesting question, Doc - I see clients flinching from the recoil of their 30/06's, 7mm mags and .300 mag. on moose or bear. It is a rare client who doesn't. There are some, but not as many as you might think. ; Now, take these average paying hunters and put a .500 or .577 nitro in their hands, have them load it with 2 finger sized ctg. and they won't be able to hold it steady just due to the anticipated recoil, let alone after firing a 'test' shot.
I have a theory. If these guys flinching with their .30-06's were introduced to a .375 or 9.3 and then shot their .30's again, they would find the recoil mild and not a problem at all anymore. As long as they don't start flinching with everything ...
