I got hit in between the eyes with a 98 Mauser that had been re-barreled to a.458 Winchester one time. I had sunglasses on and it drove them into the bridge of my nose luckily I didn't get scared up, just a little swollen and bruised! It was built too light and had the ol slick Ram Line stock. Needless to say it went down the road. I have an old Ruger 77 tang safety in .458 now that's actually pretty fun to shoot its no worse than a 12 gauge. I've always heard the .378 Weatherby is brutal but I've never fired one, real fast slapping recoil.
