Default Finding a New Caliber

Hi All,

Folks here are always talking about which caliber should I buy etc... I know for handguns you can in many cases try before you buy. Can you do the same with rifles? What if you buy an a$$ kicker of a rifle that you can't shoot?

Basically I would like to jump into a larger gun mostly just for the heck of it but I also don't want to buy something that I am afraid of.

Last time I was at the range, about 3 months ago, there was this very large dude there. He must have been about 6'2", 200lbs mostly muscle and he was shooting a 378 weatherby and he was flinching so bad I could see him doing it. So of course his shots were all over the paper.

How does one avoid this?

Tom
