Good question- I ran the barrel in and did all the load dev with out a suppressor, either prone off bi-pod or off bi-pod on portable bench set up. Recoil is noticeable (“sharp”) but not unmanageable by any means. I seem to have a reasonable tolerance for recoil so someone else might think otherwise - a lightish 300WSM without can or brake is about my limit for recoil. adding a DPT can tames it down nicely.

I found a t3 270wsm with nothing to be a handful? My 300wsm I didn't even attempt Haha that got a t2 real quick
