I know that the bullet is the same, the case however is bigger on the .30-06.
I want recoil because it is simply part of the fun of shooting. Also because
1) shooting a .22 LR was quite boring, I'm sure you can kill deer with them with proper placement but that's not the point. I enjoy shooting, and recoil is a part of shooting. If I just wanted to punch holes at a target and get good groups without recoil, I could just get an airgun and I know of some that do hole in hole accuracy almost to 50 yards, and very tight groups at 100 yards.
2) I realize recoil decreases your accuracy, but I'm more concerned about the fun of shooting instead of how close my groups will be. Besides, I'm pretty sure the recoil from a 9 lb rifle in .308 win like the CZ 550 can't be too bad at all.
3) To make a video of my unsuspecting friend who has never shot before shooting the rifle and be entertained by it. The more the recoil, the funnier the video.
So let me get this straight your throwing out 700-800 bucks on a rifle cal for the purpose of recoil and to falsely impress who people don't shoot at all,and who know nothing about cals.
Got news for you dude, its gonna get old very very fast..
YOU ARE ALREADY LOOKING LIKE A FOOL ON THIS THREAD,
YOUR GOING TO LOOK LIKE ONE IN FRONT OF THE WORLD WITH THIS ATTITUDE..YOU WILL BE THE BUTT OF ALL JOKES AT THE RANGE..
It doesn't matter what cal of gun you have, if all you have is the one cal gun, and you don't appreciate it for all the the right reasons, you'll think its the worst caliber made in history..
I don't know why you want to do this,but target practicing is a sport to be taken seriously,not for your own personal entertaiment atthe expense of your friend..
Ranges too have rules and ethics,and your expected toadhere to them.If you don't,they will kick your @$$ off the range for life. THIS IS THE EXACT PATH YOUR HEADING DOWN SO GROW UP..
