Where do you draw the line on recoil? For me, it was a .500

50bmg upper on a normal ass lower and stock. Nope. Never again .

How bad was it?

>>29932608
Some guy brought it to the range and had other people shoot it. I never saw him get behind it. He was a sadist. It was very very bad. 2 people walked away bleeding.

.600 Nitro is the largest I've ever shot, and the recoil can be described as an act of god, or a force of nature. I fired it twice and I couldn't focus my eyes properly for a couple of hours. That being said, I'll happily take a .500/450 Nitro or .500 Nitro in a double for dangerous game.

.458 WinMag is the heaviest I'll go if I'm shooting more than a handful of rounds in a given day.

From the vids I've seen it seems to have stout but managable recoil. I'll just have to shoot it and find out I guess.

Wonder if there are any stock makers that would make a walnut set for a Barret? Here I am getting my mind beyond my money again...

.50BMG, or any rifle doesn't came anywhere near the discomfort. (thanks to muzzle devices and padded butt plates)

Unless they don't have those things. See >>29932572

You definitely want some recoil compensation. There is a reason barretts function the way that they do.

Ive shot .600 overkill and .50-140 the .50-140 sharps was stiffer but nothing that cant be managed by an experienced shooter.

Winchester model 12 trench gun with stock hard rubber 1/2 inch pad shooting 3in 12ga magnum shells.

Im not recoil sensitive, but i can only shoot about 8 shots before i get nerve pain and arm starts to shake.

>12ga 3 1/2" turkey maximum load (2 1/4oz, or 985 grains) at 1300ft/s
>7lbs shotgun

According to recoil calculators, it kicked with more ft-lbs and ft/s than a 458 Lott.

Still wasn't enough, ran out of ammo before feeling shoulder pain.

>45-70 hot-load 500gr@1800ft/s
>45-70 hot-load 400gr@2050ft/s
>7.5lbs rifle, 18.5" barrel, wood stock with a steel buttplate
Ran out of ammo shooting from bench and prone (only had 35 rounds of each)

Still not enough.

So /k/ how do I get something that kicks enough to satisfy me?
