BTW, how do you do "in reply to"

---

Just like that!

Down below the text field you will see a grupe of options! Click on "QUOTE" , then scroll down to the text of the person you are quoteing, then highlight the text you want, and drag it up to the field, and drop it between the two words "QUOTE QUOTE". When it is submitted, it will show as "IN REPLY TO" in a outlined box!

Honestly, I'm working my way up to the full-house loads. I belive one can "learn to tolerate" recoil by starting with somthing like a .375 and progressivly stepping it up

That is a sound idea, but the loads need to be worked up for the full house as well. This is done in small stages for a new Big Bore shooter. Load about four rounds of the lowest "WORK UP" for a full load. Go to the range with you low recoil loads, and sometime durring the session, shoot a group with these four rounds from a cool barrel set. Next time you go to the range take four more loaded a little hotter, and repeat the four shot group. This way you won't develope a flinch with the real loads. Once you get a full load worked up, then stay off the bench with the double, and do you full house practice while stump shooting under hunting conditions. Targets of oppertunity, like rocks, stumps, and at guessed at ranges. Snapp shoot with a one-two punch fireing the right barrel first. This will teach you to stay away from the back trigger durring recoil. In walk-about shooting you will not notice the recoil nere as much as you will at a fireing range, especially from a bench! A double rifle is a "stand on your hind legs, and shoot" type of rifle.
