My Dad has shot my 450BM in AR platform and enjoyed it very much. He is thinking about picking up one of the Ruger American bolt action rifles this week in 450BM. I know those come with a factory brake.
He is worried that the recoil will be significantly more being that it's bolt action and not a gas operated semi auto.
Does anybody have experience shooting both and could verbally compare them for me in a response?
My semi auto 12 gauge recoil is literally half of my pump 12 gauge. Is it that large of a difference with the 450BM also?
Thanks all! Really appreciate your opinions!
