RE: Too much Kick?
Back when I played HS football the coach always told us during halftime to come out hitting harder in the 2nd half than we did in the 1st and by the 4th quarter we would run over the other team, well he was right...No matter how much you can stand for 3-4 rounds if that gun is a hard kicker, by 15-20 you will be anticipating recoil...
Recoil has never bothered me too much because I learned to shoot sitting up straight, use a pad if needed, always use ear plugs and to let the gun rock you backwards, you can't fight a gun and shoot straight, you have to learn to roll with it...
I had laser eye surgery to replace a torn retna about 10 years ago, the doctor said there was a 20% chance that I would lose my sight in my right (shooting eye)...Guys, that will get your attention...I no longer shoot hard kicking guns...
