Aww, just having a little fun with ya. That and I am a spelling impaired.
I am fairly recoil tolerant. After firing a relatively light 50-120 a few times, my Marlin 45-70 (hand loaded with 400 grains at arround 2000fps) no longer seems to kick any worse than a 12 gauge – a 5lb single shot 12 gauge shooting 3” goose loads ;). But really, even hot 45-70’s are mild enough kicking rounds.
In a moment of poor judgment, I also picked up a 45-70 hand cannon (with a level 3 action–ouch). It caused me to start the muzzle brake research, but I still have not decided to cut my losses on it, or try to tame it.
My issue with recoil is less about pain and punishment, but more about the niche I want the rifle to fill. I am looking for something with a relatively fast follow up shot. Excessive barrel rise really kills the double tap time.
