Default .300 win mag recoil

i have got to admit i was a little scared when i spent $1300.00 on a .300 win mag without ever fireing one

after everyone telling me how hard the kick and you need a muzzle break and a better recoil pad ... blah blah blah...

well today despite the below freezing temps and the 10 mph wind i couldnt stand it any more i had to shoot my new rifle

it was great i only shot 10 rounds out of it (was very cold) but i can say all the hype i heard about the rifle was just that hype it does have recoil and it is a little more than my .270 win but it is nothing like i had been told i am sure i could fire 50 or so rounds out of the gun in a setting without to much trouble.
