    Future tile will defiantly be a light recoil in rifle with a suppressor tho ☺ I just don't know how you guys shoot those big magnums, suppose being less than 60kg doesn't help.

    today everyone wants a light weight rifle. and the companies make them that way. (people are getting soft, buggered if I know how they even carry an animal out)
    so now everyone seems to need a suppressor because there light rifle has a fair bit of recoil. a heavy rifle tames recoil, that's why there are weight limits in target shooting.
    its all relative to calibre size. a light .22 rim fire wont matter if its a light rifle. but try shooting a .50 cal in the same weight rifle (if you could get a .50 to weigh the same as a .22)

    as others have stated above, what ever it is get it suppressed. U only get one set of ears. Look after them. You'll find 243, 6.5 Swede or 2506 all pussies with a suppressor fitted - evne with real light weight rifles. For your flinch I suggest you practice lots of dry firing, just get used to the trigger pull and click, without the bang. US snipers have to train something like 10,000 dry fires before they let them loose on live rounds. They do that for good reason.
