[QUOTE="Jcalder, post: 4789280, member: 12150"] Stocks make a huge difference. Before I went smokeless I had a cva optima v2 with a regular stock. Think I was shooting 77 grains of bh and a 250gr Barnes. Got the same gun with a thumb hole and it killed my hand with the same load. Part of it was the “checkering” as it was like sandpaper but it changed how I gripped and the gun enough it would rock me good. Found a calculator once that figured recoil. My smokeless generates around 35 pounds of recoil. Not sure where a 338WM falls Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
