What I truely hate to see is a man that shoots a 6 lb rifle in 30-06 but says a mark V 300 weatherby is too much recoil. The mark V coming in at just over 8lbs with the same 180 grain bullet is no more punishing than the former. The muzzle blast may be a bit more but we're also comparing 26" barrel to a much shorter barrel. Most people flinch on the first shot of any magnum but if you can convince them to close there eyes on the second shot and they realize it doesn't hurt them after the shot, they then settle down and shoot just as good as they can with their own rifle.
