Default RE: Too much Kick?

I sold a beautiful LH Weatherby to a fellow one time, and when I sold it I knew he would be getting rid of it shortly. I even told him that, but he still wanted it.It was a 378 WBM. He brought it back a few weeks later, and just wanted to get rid of it. He could not take the recoil. I bought the rifle(cheap). I took the rifle out back and shot it off hand. The recoil was bad, but manageable. The problem was when I shot the rifle my equilibrium went screwy. Every time I shot the rifle I thought I was in a daze. I am not sure if this was recoil or muzzle blast. But I did not like the feeling. Tom.
