Recoil question
I’m building an underhammer in .44 with a 1:17 twist. I plan on starting at 40gr of FFg and work up.
I have fusion of vertebrate in the neck and recoil and me don’t get along so well anymore. I can handle up to 12ga 3” turkey loads.
I hope to shoot the long heavy paper patch or grease bullets with up to 70gr+ of powder.
How bad will the recoil be! Can’t afford to mess my neck and back up anymore than it already is.
Thanks

Re: Recoil question
If you can handle 3” 12 Gauge Turkey Loads you can handle ANYTHING a .44 Blackpowder UnderHammer Rifle will throw your way.
I shoot 610 & 615 Grain GG & PP Bullets in my 1:24 Twist .50 Cal, 100 Grains of Swiss 2F Powder, And don’t feel the Recoil is as bad as 3” 12 Gauge Loads

Good! Hopefully I can get my gun finished this winter. Been slammed with customers guns to work on but starting to get caught up a little so may have some time when the weather gets worse.

Re: Recoil question
I’ve got a similar issue fractured C6 and 7 and three levels fusion. (Can’t shoot prone anymore, sadly.) my fourties get a steady diet of bullets up to 400 grains and 80 grains of 2f. In a 8 pound and up rifle it’s a very nice shot. I can do it all day…
