About recoil!

I used to like shooing big bores. Note the phrase "USED TO LIKE SHOOTING" = past tense!

Now that I have torn cartilage both front and back in my right shoulder, I don't shoot anything 'heavier' than my .375 and 9,3x62 - they're fine, even at the range, as long as I wear a standard PAST shoulder protector. For less than 5 rounds, I don't need the protector, but will be sore for a few days.

As to an .600 OK - no thanks - I'd like to keep my retina's where they are and do no more damage to the shoulder - it's had enough fun, and it only took 15,000 rounds of 458 to do it.
