Personally I would love to try out a modern scoped .500/.416.

But this comment always has me a bit perplexed:

In reply to:

The only "hearsay" I can pass along is not to buy one if you're looking for decreased recoil from a .470. Apparently the perceived recoil is quite similar.




I haven't done the statistical analysis on recoil but ceterus parabus (all oherthings being equal) I can't see the logic in that statement. I know the source of the original quotation for that comment but has ANYONE ELSE ever reported perceived recoil being so extraordinarily different in a .500/.416 as compared to say a .400 Jeffrey?
