The recoil is very bad, more than my mauser K98 with 200grain bullet and the case full of 47,5 grain of VV-N150!!
I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment then. To me that's pretty wussy for recoil but then a 450 Marlin doesn't bother me either. Maybe your technique is wrong. If you hold it like a .22 and let it slam into your shoulder, yeah it's gonna hurt. Now a very hot loaded 45-70 in a Siamese Mauser has a little recoil to it.
