tod: I have a smaller rifle. Another SS Tikka M695 in .30-06
Unfortunately, it just doesn't deliver the energy I want at the longer ranges. :shock:
stubblejumper: I use a Past Recoil shield for long range sessions, but that .338 still gives me a wrench when I touch it off. I have a partially calcified aortic aneurysm, a leaky valve, a blood clot encapsulated with fiborous tissue and some other old leaks from heart surgery 45 years ago. :?
Thus the comfort of a lessening of the recoil, even if I am a WARTHOG and a Gunnutz. :!:
I may have one foot in the box and the other on a banana peel, but I'll go down doing what I want to do. :lol:
Seriously, my Dr. says I can do what I want, and my hunting partners jsut tell me to let them do the heavy lifting etc while I do my share in other ways. 8)
They told me this year that if I kicked off during the hunt, they's just gut me and let me hang for a few days until they finished the hunt. :twisted:
What pals :!: :roll:
What buddies :!: :lol:
:lol:
