Sore upper Pectorals on one side...

25 rounds zeroing in a .308 is a bit rough. ;-)

A faint bruise showed up about 24 hours later between the clavicle and
front deltoid...

I may have a deer hunting invite. It's been years since I've fired that
rifle, I'd almost forgotten how severe the recoil was!

Bearable, but can still elicit an "ouch" if not snugged tightly enough.

Managed to get a 5 round grouping down to 2 1/2 inches at 100 yards, but
it's still shooting about 2" high... I'll just compensate.

Nathan (the property owner) recommends neck shots.

I actually assumed you were about to say;

"did DB presses with my left arm yesterday..."

Silly me ;-O

Are you a woman? 25 .308 rounds? Shit. Try 6 boxes of 3" 12 gauge
turkey magnum loads.

Try one box of 00 buck 3" magnums with a no-stock pistol grip. It'll
get your attention.

Heheh! My friend that was with me was firing one of those...

Gender is beside the point. It still left a nice little bruise but I
didn't care. It was no worse than the DOMS I get from an extended set of
heavy benches. I needed to zero the gun in as I have a deer hunting
invite. :-)

We had been shooting skeet just prior to that and between 4 of us, we
shot 180 rounds of 12 gauge so it was more than just that rifle.

Ever fired a .308? Or a 30-06?
