   If bush hunting you can’t beat a 7.62x39

   Everything has pretty much been covered already. But in all honesty if you are finding the recoil too much with your current setup that already has a brake I personally would not be spending anymore...

   One thing sheep that I cannot see if anyone has mentioned is dont fight the recoil....It seems counter intuitive but I find this a lot of newer shooters (I am not saying you are new to it...but...

   Yep second that, 85 - 87 gr pills and things out front fall over.. end of story. I do run 105-108gr pills in my custom 243 but in reality for goat and fallow deer they are too big. The 75 gr work...

   Get a new model 308... it is called a 243. Some times you can never get over that recoil fear. Been there. Started off with a BSA CF2 270. It could slay deer. But it was heavy and I grew to hate that...

   the superpreformance in 308 is shocking from what I have seen.....use 110grn pills and it nearly is a 243......same as 270 with 110s recoil goes waaaay down.

   I think you need a 243. There are a number of things you can do to improve the 308 but a new rifle may be cheaper. (however I would still be doing the upgrades to the 243 as well so it a mute...

   I remember Remington do a managed recoil round in popular calibers,not a long range option but I used them in .270 years ago for bush hunting,pretty sure they will have a .308 option.

   Out of interest, was it better with the titanium in or out ? I have the option of having it removed, but would rather have the pain I'm used to dealing-with, than something worse. Mine was in 9...

    2nd that, after reconstructive shoulder-surgery, I went down to 110gr in .270 and all was good. No suppressor, Brake OR recoil-pad (I didnt want to cut it for LOP) I also discovered how devastating...

    110 barnes or 125-130grn projectiles do drop 308 recoil way down...seriously WAY down.....if you go 110grn route you are nearly turning it into a 243...... recoil should actually be less..... decent...

    For shorter range shooting (up to 150-200m), you can load the 308 with 30-30 type projectiles at 30-30 speeds, recoil is a lot less than full-power 308 loads but still drops animals very effectively.

    I have a mate who has a destroyed collar bone, he can shoot his 308 with 178g no problem if sitting or standing but lying down it gives him a beating. Just the angle of where it sits in his shoulder.

    Wear a carrier harness / vest, any stiff webbing running over your shoulder spreads recoil nicely.
