Question for anyone out there; I just bought a Remington in .338, stainless, laminated stock. Beautiful gun. Alot of guys are telling me that it's gonna kick the crap out of me, why beat myself up, etc. [

] Anyone shoot one? What's it like? I previously owned a .35 Whelen and shot that accurately...hopefully I will able to become accurate w/ this as it will be my main gun. Also the scope to go on it. I am looking at a Nikon 4-12 x 50 Buckmaster. Is this a good choice for this gun? Any help, advice, info or assistance is appreciated. THANKS![8D]
It will kick the crap out of you if you let it. Learn to shoot it, no big thing. There are people out there who think a .300WBY Mag kicks a lot. Just learn to shoot it. That's all. Go with the flow (recoil). It's going to recoil, you know that. Take it on and take aim. You'll hit your target.
