1) My Model 700 VS LH Remington in .308 WCF

2) My Model 1899A Savage short rifle in .303 Savage. Twenty rounds at one sitting is my absolute limit. The cresent butt has me near tears.

3) Like asking a parent to pick their favorite child.

Best shooters in order:
1-DPMS AR-15
2-1914 SMLE #1 Mk III (no *'s)
3-1921 Springfield M1903 MK I
4-1916 GEW 98 Mauser
5-1915 Steyr M-91
6-Ruger 10/22I
7-1938 Turkish Mauser

Worst shooters (in order of Suck)
1- 1915 Moisin Negant M-91
2- No 3 Enfield (P-14)
3- Colt Army special (pistol)

Although I will not admit to not shooting any gun due to recoil, I'd have to say the ones with the heaviest recoil are:
1- 1915 Steyr M-95
2- Custom Built .54 cal Flint long Rifle (very light rifle with very poorly designed decorative brass Buttstock)
3-Reproduction 1st model brown bess, .75 Cal

My favorite?
AR-15, of course!
Followed By the Enfield, Springfield, GEW 98, and the 10/22

I have one of them, BTW were ya get ammo for it?  Or at least brass?

I lost the last two boxes I had in a move about 15 years ago, and the few times I think of it I have never been able to find ammo for it.

I stocked up years ago. I have enough to last the rest of my lifetime. However, new brass can be formed by FL sizing .220 Swift hulls and trimming. Pretty easy stuff. Don't let any of these dingbat "commercial loaders" bluff you into buying this crap formed from non-standard cases like .303 British (unrelated), .30-30 WCF, etc. That's unsafe.

It comes primarily from the crescent butt (rifle was made in 1905).

1:  My AR, by far.
2:  The .577 T-Rex (well, I don't own it...but take a look:[url]http://www.serveroptions.com/humor/abdula01.mpg[/url]

None of the guns I own are unpleasant to shoot.

3:  My AR, by far.

Let's see.....

1.Best shooter: Handgun - SIG P220ST

2.None hurt to shoot.  Although I do feel a pain when I can't go shooting or haven't gone in a while.

3.Couldn't pick just one,  I love them all.  They are all fun to shoot.

I like the crescent butt,fits the shoulder just right!    I lost the end of my ram-rod in my 50 cal (CVG) hawkin black rifle!

So took the heavy brass crescent butt plate off and machined it to fit my model 94 Winchester!

The Hawkins rifle with a 530 grain bullet,and 100 grains pyrodex didn't kick any harder than the 30/30 win.

 So the curved butt-plate sure enough tamed that Winchester!  It was a cattle ranch gun,either left in the scabbard or behind the front seat long enough to be a prop up on the creek or not much except good shooter not much to look at 100.00 gun!

But that curved butt sure tamed her!    


Only had one gun that got the best of me 10 gauge 3 1/2 mag!      Shot it three times,then it got traded into another 50 cal Hawkins black powder!        

 Best or most accurate 1937 Colt Heavy Barrel 38S&W six inch revolver!  Hits where you point it,not big on home defense guns ,but cheap and so fun to shoot!          


Favorite   Thompson 10mm  till it blows up in my face,feels just about the same as my 44 mag,just not quite the same(hard to explain)

1)Rifle is either of my ARs, 10 or 15.
 Handgun is my H&K P7M8.

2)G3. Recoil is noticeable.

3)That's like asking which kid/parent is your favorite? Impossible to decide.
