"It has too much recoil" The 404 Jeffery has the lowest chamber pressure of all the magnum rifles...you can shoot it the whole day...if you hunt plains game you can go lighter grain bullets..350 gn will work excellently...

"Too much damage to medium/small game" with a 400 gn bullet at 2050 f/s ...will not cause any accessible expansion ...medium/small game does not need to be hunted with heavy bullets if you think it will cause too much meat damage...I doubt it.....

Just my two cents...




My comments relate to it as a "one gun rifle". The .375 is still the king of that in my opinion.

The .404 has the most felt recoil of all my user rifles. Perhaps it is stock design or weight of the rifle to recoil compared to the other rifles.
