Thread: How to manage recoil?

Have you shot a 308 before? A different rifle ? How was the recoil ? A light weight Tikka 308 without a good suppressor or brake can be a challenge for those of us who are recoil sensitive and as others have stated the muzzle blast from brake will add to felt recoil. See if you can borrow a suppressor and see if that helps. If intended use is hunting then suppressor is best option. A good brake like T2 terminator will be better at reducing recoil but not so user friendly for general hunting
