I have been reading a lot on this forum and I keep seeing where people say the 33LM recoils much more than the average person needs. I have seen lots of vids on YouTube and it looks like the AW and TRG, rem 700 rifles in 338LM do have quite a bit of recoil. That could easily be poor position.
I have a AR-30 in 338LM and it has a metal butt plate. It recoils less, far less than my rem700 .308Winchester in an AICS stock. I have fired a rem700 that was chambered in 338LM that did have a good push. It did not have such a recoil that would prevent me from shooting 10 or 20 shots. The dust it kicked up would prevent me from shooting it that many times.
So how do these other rifles rate on recoil?
