WHATS YOUR WORST BIG BORE THUMPER??
      01/06/06 10:03 AM

I have several big bore rifles but some seem to smack me worse than others. Most seem to fit well but bite just the same.

I have a 375 H&H, 416 Rem, 458 WM, and 470 NE among the serious big boys.I would rather shoot the 470 over the 458.

The scopeless 458 Wm is no fun with hot 500 gr loads weighing in at 8 pnds,6oz. I can't cycle the bolt as fast as I can shoot the 470 Double either.

All this groaning being said I must say that I didn't even feel the 458 gun kick when hunting.Mind over matter I guess.

What is your worst thumper? How would you make it better??

Thank you for any responses beforehand!
