    It must be a miracle I don't have a serious flinch going by the replies here, I started using granddads sporterised brass but plate 303 from around 13years old and then went to a lightweight short 308 win.

    Same here - started with an ex-military Mauser rebarreled to 30-06, shot 1000's of 7.62 Nato when I was an active target shooter - currently own (and have done for the last 20 years) one of those terribly recoiling 270s My mates son used to shoot my 358 Norma mag no problems when he was a skinny little 14 year old ...
