Im in a tricky spot- considering a model 70 featherweight from the local shop. Its light as heck and pretty pointable. I bought it cause I need a hunting gun out to 200 ish yards(for now) with all the long range capabilities of a scoped high power gun. (plan to drive out to the country to do some long range shoots eventually)
Thing is I havent shot it yet and its already hurting my shoulder- the cz 550 american is a pound heavier and should soak up recoil a good bit better. Not into the FS model as it has a bavarian stock that puts my eye in line with sights and not a scope.
Seeing as how I am just getting my hunting license this gun is prolly gonna see more range time than hunting time for now- what would yall do, keep the model 70 and see if I can handle the recoil or go with the cz?
