So I'm 33 and 20 years ago my parents bought me a 30-06 bolt action for my birthday. After 20 years, I just shot it for the first time, ever!
After 4 rounds... OUCH! this thing has some major recoil! I've shot my AK with it's wood stock, but this thing has some power.
Aside from just getting used to the recoil I'm going to need to pick up a recoil pad or something. My shoulder feels it now... I picked up some extra ammo, but this gun isn't one that I'll be out shooting 80 - 100 rounds per range trip....
Just had to share my experience...
