MarkB_MI, Compare apples to apples,not apples to oranges, plug the same 220 grain from an -06 into the equation and the numbers are close again. If you don't it's like comparing fuel mileage on a Ford Fiesta against a 1/2 ton truck.
Bullet weight in grains 220 Velocity in fps 2500 Powder charge in grains 58.7 Weight of firearm in lbs 8
Recoil Impulse in (lbs sec) 3.47 Velocity of recoiling firearm (fps) 13.95 Free recoil energy in (ft/lbs) 24.17
Not a 40% increase.
Only exception I take with some on here,is telling me how BAD the recoil is and I should go down in size of caliber because they can't handle the recoil,if they shot one at all. Most are just reiterating stories told by the campfire of what someone else has said.
IF someone can't handle the recoil, I can't fault them for it,but to tell me to buy a smaller size firearm because of their vast knowledge of my capabilities is wrong,and how I won't be able to handle the recoil is wrong and I have no quandaries about saying so. Also reiterating the myth of how much more recoil the 300 over the -06 is without knowing of what they speak is wrong.They are using their human perception of recoil,not fact.
Also a side note,so far to date my 300 is open stock iron sights,no scope,so shots are as only as far as I know I can make accurately.

Following seven years working in California's Silicon Valley, my wife, baby son and I moved back to Australia to retire. We bought a small 'farm' of about 50 acres near Bendigo, in the state of Victoria. I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
