I'm pretty new to center fire shooting and based in UK where target shooting opportunities does limit my exposure to various calibers.

I am going to buy a Savage 12 FT/R to build up my skills. I am trying to get feedback on the "perceived recoil" that a shooter will experience on the 12 FT/R between 223 and 308 caliber with standard ammo.

I'd appreciate feedback from anybody who has shot each from a Savage 12
