try replacing the but pad with a limbsaver and/or change the stock to a heaver one
to reduce recoil
It is used to reduce the recoil of the rifle and as a grip for cocking the barrel.
It is impossible to stop recoil.
There are more than rifle cartridge called "7mm" and they are not equal in power or equal in recoil. A 7 x 57mm Mauser will be moderate-recoiling, but a 7mm Remington Magnum will be in the heavy recoil category. And the weight (mass) of the rifle matters, too. With a heavy gun, the recoil will feel less to you, and it will be like a shove. A light weight gun fired with the exact same ammo in it might feel like a hard slap. Not as comfortable. Any 7mm hunting or military rifle should be OK for an adult man or woman of normal size to shoot at least a few rounds from without pain or bruising.
When you fire a rifle,the recoil kick is introducing you to Newton's Third Law.If you you don't hold the rifle properly to absorb the recoil in your whole body, the recoil will leave a nasty bruise mark; (mv) recoil = (mv) bullet. You want to minimize the recoil velocity by maximizing the recoil mass=your rifle + your body. Getting the [proper stance and grip will raise the recoil mass the reduce the impact on your body.
There are several 7mm cartridges out there.. the basic 7x57 will have less recoil than the .30-06, but there are cartridges marketed as 7mm which produce significantly more recoil.
Both calibers have alot power but the 7mm is more powerful due to the fact that the bullets of the 7mm are in a higher grain than the .308. The 7mm also has a much higher recoil than the 308 and even the 30-06, both calibers have a high standard of performance but its no question the 7mm remington is more powerful
The recoil of the rifle bruised her shoulder.The recoil sent him flying backwards.
Anywhere from $100 to a few thousand- depends on which 7mm rifle- and which 7mm cartridge- there ARE several different one.
A .177 caliber air rifle has very little recoil.
Add a butt pad, add a muzzle brake, shoot ammo loaded lighter, add weight to the rifle.
In the firearms industry the bore of a 7mm rifle is .284in.
