shootaway375 RUM in remington 700 APR or ABR?
Iam thinking of buying a custom Remington.This caliber is offered in two models.The Apr-weight 7 1/2lbs and the ABR-9 1/2lbs.Is the recoil too much for a 7 1/2 pound rifle?

Frank MartinezI thought so. I went to the laminate stock and added a decelerator to calm the recoil down when shooting full house and hot loads.

shootawayFrank,do you have a muzzlebreak on? Is it offered by Remington as an option?

Frank MartinezNo brakes on any of my rifles. I can't answer about Remington offering. I just would rather not have a brake.
The added weight and pad were enough for me tomake it more comfortable to shoot.
I know the Remington pad is horrible so at least change that.
