Should be ok GK...its 20% heavier than my 338-06 so that will help.
My 338-06 which is just over 6 pound scoped shooting a 225 grainer at 2700 comes in at 45 ft/lbs of recoil
A 338 WM shooting 225 grainer at 2900 that is roughly 6.75 scoped should be roughly 47 ft/lbs.
No both will likely get your attention, if wimpy me can shoot 50 rounds off a bench in a session I think most can do it.
Sounds like a sweet rifle there GK!! Very cool indeed!
thank you Luke - I'm anxious to give it a test run - my only (minor) concern is that it seems a bit barrel light so it might have some lift, push comes to shove I'll magnaport it but I'd rather not so I'll give it every chance - there looks to still be plenty of "meat" at the muzzle too ....
