[QUOTE="CHRIS WILSON, post: 4789323, member: 2609"] Looking at the BH209 load data from their site, your weighed charge is comparable to a charge of a bit over 100 grs by volume. Paired with a 300 gr bullet....I'm guessing it's shooting somewhere around the 1900-1950 fps mark. Performance wise, that would put it in line with a 45-70 loaded a touch on the hot side from industry standard. The recoil energy generated should be comparable. As mentioned, stock design has an affect on felt recoil...as does the weight of the rifle. A bad stock design and/or a light weight rifle will exaggerate felt recoil. If I remember correctly, the Triumph is a little on the light weight side. [/QUOTE]
