Will you be using factory ammo or reloading your own ?
Some factory ammo can have quite sharp recoil in the superlights.
i will be reloading
Recoil is fine, I have a limb saver on mine and it is suppressed. Shoot a good mix of 110gr accubonds, 130gr ssts or nosler bt, 140gr bergers and 145gr eldx.
My 14 year old son uses it too and he has no issues.
I currently have one as my main rig which is suppressed, I think it's not too bad at all recoil wise, my son uses it also and it's tolerable for him he's 11.
thanks for the replies, it will be moderated so shouldn,t be too bad
So are you rebarreling or buying a complete new rifle

i,m buying a t3 superlite
Got this rifle a couple of months ago. Couldn't get the 145gr ELDX to work so ended up loading some old school 130gr Sierra GK's and got much better results. Made the CF stock too, now its a superduperlite 2.7kg scoped. Recoil is stout but if your suppressing should be fine.
Epic what scope and how heavy your stockQuote:

Love that camo invisibility paint job on it, be a bugger to find again if you put it down somewhere......Quote:
