257 roberts

I gotta ask about your model 70. A friend of mine bought one identical to yours for his wife who was a smaller lady and he figured the 257 was a milder choice. When he tried it out he told me it kicked harder than his 7mm mag Sako. The model 70 had to weigh 9 lbs loaded and I can't figure why recoil was an issue unless bore was undersized? Is yours unruly for recoil? Just curious.
Hi
I think the lighter straight stock makes felt recoil more than it is
I feel my model 70 supergrade in 270 win kicks less but it is all steel and weighs a couple pounds more
