I am glad you were able to get a load that will do the job for you. The 100 grain load has been a standard for me when shooting a quality inline. Recently I have stepped that up to 110 grains, basically because the White handled that load so well through a wide range of different sabot/projectile combinations. Following this lead I went back and worked the Remingtons and the Omega with 110 and they all responded equally well.

Recoil is not a significant problem for me because it really does seem less than my 300 win mag and I KNOW it is less than a 12 guage turkey load.

FG thought about the Limb-saver is certainly an option, if you are looking at that thought take a look a the new Kick-Eex "Sorbothane" recoil pads. The materal is really absorbant and comfortable... I use them basically to increase the length of pull but the absorbtion of recoil is a nice bonus.
