Like most things ,it depends! My 6 pound 50 cal 22" barrel hawken left bruises on me with 90 grains behind a 420 conical! The brass recoil pad technology seems overrated. And with a lot of drop at the butt , the barrel really bucks upward.
My 300 prc is a teddy bear but it has a great brake on it and a cushy pad and awesome stick design.
