I have a 300 RUM, and I did not like the recoil. I put a muzzle brake and a limbsaver recoil pad and now it's easy to shoot. I have a CZ 375 H&H on layaway. I would be very interested in hearing opinons on the recoil of that gun also. I'm hoping the 10 pounds it weighs will help reduce the recoil. I hope I can handle the recoil with just a pad, but I will put a mercury recoil reducer on it if I have to. If I still can't handle the recoil I'll add a muzzle brake as a last resort.
