Im looking for some opinions so hears my situation.
Last year I bought a sako A7 in 300wsm that I love other then the nasty recoil. I understand its a 30 cal rifle thats light weight and i expected it to kick quite a bit. I put a limbsaver on it rate away and it help significantly!!!!
Im trying to come up with a good load befor hunting season and become more comfortable shooting at farther distances, but still find myself fearing its kick. I see it affecting my shooting abilities after i fire a few round. I need a way to tone down the recoil without sacrificing anything? Is there something i can do to my loads to help or is my only option to get a brake or add weight to my rifle?
Im a thin built person so recoil is a problem for me.
should i look for something smaller like a .260 or .280?
