Managed Recoil Factory Ammunition

[-Savage-]

Greetings! My question has to do with Managed Recoil factory ammunition.

I would like my wife to become familiar shooting all of the firearms in my gun cabinet, however I am a little concerned about the recoil of the .270
- the last thing I'd want to see is the development a flinch which would ruin accuracy and take away the enjoyment of the experience.

As yet, I do not hand-load, so it seems that the only available option is to buy Managed Recoil factory ammunition. As advertised, the price is about the same but the recoil should be about 50% of regular ammunition. If so then, in the same weight of rifle, the recoil should be about the same as a .243 ?

In your expert opinion, how well does this ammunition actually perform at the range? And would it be suitable for a young person to use for deer hunting?

For all normal deer hunting ranges the ammunition will work well.

Don't let the numbers fool you.

Just looked on the Remington site.

115gr .270 managed recoil has just as much pop @ 300 yards as 150/170 30-30.

My wife uses managed recoil 3006 at the range then loads up full power loads in the field where no one ever notices recoil. They shoot close enough to each other it doesnt matter at ranges she'd have a chance at a deer in our bush.
