That’s what I thought. Too bad…….. I reckon they’re for folks with buyer’s remorse. Folks who buy an 06 who probably should have stuck with a 308. Doesn’t make much sense to me though. I buy a caliber for its ballistic characteristics and what I plan to do with it.

It isn’t just bullet weight and powder that effects recoil though. There are other factors that contribute to it. I have a little 280 Remington Winchester Featherweight that will wake you up real quick firing 150 grain rounds.
