I have had one on both 357 and on a 22lr.  Seeing as how recoil is subjective  I did not notice any "major" difference  with hot 357.
There is a problem with hard kicking(?)  weapons as the stock can close and feed you a scope  , it has been discussed here before. I wanted them so I could have a shorter overall length.  hth   Doug

I have the AR type on my 22Hornet but not sure it would handle the recoil of a 308

Using the loads I had in my 357( 180gr fngc @1850)  the recoil energy is 7.5 fpe, the 243 factory is @ 8.6 fpe and the 308 is  @16.7fpe . I would use it on the 243, but as S.E.Ak said ,not on the 308.   Doug

I had one on a .223 once, wasnt bad, rattled like the dickens so I got rid of it with the rifle, gonna put one on a hornet if I can ever round a new one up.  The new ATI stocks are supposed to be much better than the old kind I had.

Id say it was easy enough to see through the scope, they may make cheek peices by now, youd have to check, or make one

Spanky, I have never had the," rare "opportunity.But having watched others "taste it" it sure looks very" rare" to me ::)There was a picture posted here a while back, showing what a Handi shot gun did to a guy. It was not pretty.    Doug

I have one on a 12 ga.  Its not to bad with the extra recoil pad that you can get but without it my shoulder had the checkering of the stock for a few days.

I've been tapped between the eyes with a scope before. I didn't like it too much. :-\

Here's what I did to see through the scope more easily.Just took a piece of foam pipe insulation and cut it to fit the stock.I've put two nylon wire ties on it now to hold it in position.Works great now.It's on my 223.Slow

I checked with Mossberg at the SHOT show and they said their 6 position AR style stock on the Mossy 500's are from ATI.    If they can handle the 12 g 3" magnums then it would seem they should be able to handle a 308 in a Handi.   

I don't know yet - I haven't bought one for my Mossberg yet.   But if Mossberg were having trouble (breakage) with these stocks it would stand to reason they would discontinue them.

Now that's a simple and cool answer to a predicament.   Good job.

For me, about the only use would be on a .22 or .357. Makes it easier to fit the firearm to the kids. (Which is part of the reason they love my AR15 with the .22 adapter).
Have lights? Thank a Lineman!
