RE: Poll: Elk Cartridge Preferences
JamesB, I have heard a saying that as long as you can bend like a willow in the wind you can shoot any gun no matter the size. I think that is true up to a point but when shootinglarge magmums 30 cal and over on up to.416 or .460 WBYand bigger size does matter, well at least I think it does.[8D] You still have to bend like a willow in the wind, but having some mass behind the gun has to help. Not saying a smaller frame woman orteenage cant take the recoil and shoot accurate, because they sure can. I have not yet got to shoota big mag.40 caliber or over. I have shoot a .378 WBY and being honest it wasn't near as bad as I thought it would be. I think recoil is somewhat in the mind of the shooter, if you make yourself believe that its going to kick then yes it will kick. Same goes the other way.
