I finally bought my first Nightforce. Pretty nice piece of glass. Time to stretch her out a little.

Even with a muzzle brake the 300WM is pretty brutal. I know a couple people that have suffered retina separation from the recoil. I would say trade it in on a 308. Slightly less recoil similar balistics.
