My dad turns 81 in a few months and has hunted with the same Remington 7400 30-06 carbine for years. He missed 3 last year and killed one and about same year before. He has got weaker with age and has gotten a bad flinch due to recoil. He mentioned yesterday he wouldn’t mind a 30-30. Are the reduced recoil shells that noticeable? Other gun recommendations? I was thinking a single shot in maybe 7-08? Give me some ideas here. He shoots at 75 yards or less out of a blind most times. The reduced loads in .308 worked excellent for my boys when they were little. I believe the Remington load was 125 grains and the recoil was greatly reduced compared to a full house 165.
