Went out to the National Forest today and shot my new K31 for the first time. My gawd what a sweet shooting rifle! It is my first milsurp rifle and I honestly wasn't expecting much from it but what a pleasant surprise. Accuracy was excellent, the action slick, and I couldn't ask for better trigger pull. This rifles a keeper. The only downside was that the sights are a bit smaller than they need to be and it has pretty stout recoil. I had read about the recoil here and on other boards so I put a slip on recoil pad on the rifle before I shot it. I'm glad I did! Saved my shoulder. Even with the pad after about thirty rounds my shoulder told me to call it a day. This is the first high powered rifle I've fired and was wondering how the 7.5 Swiss round compares to other cartridges in terms of recoil. To be more specific, how does it compare to the 7.62 Nato or the 30.06 fired from similar weapons.
