Speaking of guns, I’m back with the new rifle. I cleaned it up and tried a few shots (I have a safe backstop out here in the boonies). As expected, the recoil is ferocious with hot factory loads (300 gr. JHP, 1880 fps), but manageable since I don’t anticipate shooting a whole lot at once. I would use lighter loads most of the time anyway, there being few rogue elephants or ill tempered grizzlies in this area. The rifle is quite small and weighs a little less than 5 pounds so high recoil was a given. Fit and finish are phenomenal. If anything, it looks better in person than in the Uberti promotional video. The rolling block action is as smooth as any new gun I have ever used.
