Hi all,

I have a chance to swap a bow for a Rem 700 Classic in .300 WinMag and being an archery fanatic and very rarely shoot a rifle, I would like your opinions on this. I plan on using the gun for elk primarily. One thing I am concerned about is recoil, I have never shot one of these and I can handle 30.06's and my .308 ok and muzzleloaders ok. Will the recoil/blast be much more than a .06? I dont want to gfet a gun and hate to shoot it but I would only be shooting it to sight it in for a hunt and hopefully on the hunt. I am not a regular rifle shooter (target, etc). I think it is a great deal but would like to hear from you Xperts also.

Thanx alot and good shooting !
