help tame a 300 ultra mag
#3
Get the best recoil pad made and then a muzzle brake would be the only way I know of taming it. Perhaps a smaller caliber with less recoil would really be the answer. 300 RUM is way more than needed for deer and if that is what you are hunting and want something that kicks like a .270 then trade that big boy in for something you will enjoy shooting.

YOU really only have about two choices, muzzle break it or reduce the powder charge.. if you reload or know someone who does get them to tone it way way down... it's actually very simple procedure and only a few grains of powder if make a big difference.. the muzzle break will also help BUT it will become a loud machine.. maybe a combination of both...or the level 1 ammo will help also..

I had the 7mm ultramag and I put a custom break on it and it really knocked the kick down. The heavier the gun the better it is to handle. When shooting these large loads I rather the models like the Sendero which are heavy.
Ron I am curious of why you would want him to stay away from a muzzle break?
