Thread: Dealing with a flinch

Buy yourself a 45/70 and learn to enjoy a steel butt plate on your shirt sleeve. I use to hate recoil, had trouble pulling the trigger on the 303 or the 3006 in my young days. In fact I owned only a 222 in centre fire. Once I got into the 45/70, I used a gel pad first, now, after hundreds of rounds, I expect and enjoy the recoil, even the 450/400 is ok, but only about 6 rounds at a time.
