It's physics. The WinMag with a 500 gr will go about 2050 +/-. That same bullet is going out at 2300 +/- in the Lott. Often the Lott's have been lighter than they needed to be therefore increasing the felt recoil by a very subjective amount. I was a bit tongue-in-cheek in the above post. But the fact remains, the Lott will definitely recoil much more and comes back at you a bit faster than the WinMag. Just go to the simple 38 Spec. and 357 Mag. Let's say we shoot both cartridges in a 2" barrel. The 38 with a 125 gr will maybe go 900 +/-. That same bullet in a 357 will go 1200+/-. The difference in recoil in the two rounds is the difference between fun and pain.

Lo do they call to me,
They bid me take my place among
them in the Halls of Valhalla,
Where the brave may live forever.
