Jack,

I touched off a 3 1/2" 2 1/4 oz turkey load one winter in my 7 lb SBE and couldn't feel my shooting hand for about 10 minutes. Never had that problem with any rifle of mine.

As far as bird shot on game goes, I have killed several groundhogs withg #7.5 trying to make it to their holes a couple of yeas ago and I was using a 20 ga. on those occassions.
