Dunno. Never shot it, don't own anything that shoots it (yet). I just started stockpiling things I thought I might want to have.

From what I gather, your experience shooting it depends heavily on the specific rifle you use. The Armalite AR-50 is widely recognized as having the best muzzle brake. That and the Barrett M82, being a semi-automatic, only kick like a 12 gauge. Everything else seems to be capable of leaving a decent bruise from the first shot.
