Dave,

The cut and paste messed up the A and B heading. Pay attention to the color.

Fixed it. :)

Now that’s much easier. The first way it was had me thinking I was taking crazy pills, LOL!

Brother…I’ll second your thinking on recoil! I remember in my teens & 20’s I thought recoil was uber kewl! Even in my 30’s I didn’t mind it so much, having a stout physic. Although by then I had come to know it just wasn’t needed. Now in my mid 40’s, with a broken, weak body, I say recoil is for the birds! I learned that having a 15lb rifle that’ll get out to a mile without much recoil is what I like.

Got it - thanks.

Well.......LOL!! I`m glad I can take credit for initiating a thread that has allowed the experts to hold forth! I`ll just crawl back into my little neophyte hole with my .223 " trainer" !!

LOL trainer indeed. Probably one of my better 600yd guns when the wind wasn't blowing.

223 is among my very favorite cartridges my friend. Although I use it in the AR platform. I’ve hand built & owned a horde of AR15’s over the last 17 years, and all but 2 were chambered 223/5.56. While I’ve never had a Bolt Gun in 223 I know what it does in my high end AR15’s. And I also know that performance can only be furthered in a Bolt Gun. Trainer says you? HA, says I!
