it seems like your a bit recoil shy or you haven't shot many high powered rifles.. If you think the recoil in your grandpas 45-70 BP load is to much go get a 30-30, 25-06, or .243. recoil friendly and proven cartridges, especially the 30-30. Like nomercy said the .308 ME wont stay around. I haven't talked to many people at all that had one. There are much better choices.
