And as posted to be on the safe side basic sight in and practice and leave the shooting for the game. You won't notice it.
Bit like when we were younger mucking about with 303s and brass butt plates.
My 8x57 without the stuff I mentioned started to let me know after about 15 or so shotsbof some euro 185 or.
If the packet was tight it would've been 2500ish fps for the slightly shorter barrel.
Anymore if I'd shot the full packet I'd have known about it the next day hut only just.
Not a super heavy gun either. Wood stock czech mauser with just under 22" barrel and stock.
Be careful and keep the majority of shooting to game.
I wasn't even really recoil sensitive I think.
Never did a lot of shooting off a bench either but did put a lot of shooting over the years with 1 1/4 loads out of a shotgun.
Usually down at the bunny hunt on rabbits.
The old A5 one year gave me the sorest shoulder I'd ever had but it was a good 4 or 5 packets and a another the same with the pump action. Shoulder was definitely sore the next day
