Recoil, like beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It effects some more than others with the same rifle. I've had a Remington AWR gen 1 rifle for going on twenty years. It's a very light rifle, but you carry it 99.99% of the time and shoot it the remainder. Had a Browning composite stalker before that.
From the bench I'll wear a sissy pad but when you're hunting you'll never feel the recoil anyway.
Great cartridge for elk, moose and bear. Might be stretching it some to say it's a sheep rifle though.
