I know of a 5'5" 120 LB woman who shoots one and has taken several buff with it.  I haven't fired one, but have been told it isn't so bad.  If you are ever at the Renton range, I'd love to take a crack with it.  I'll even pitch in on the ammo.  (it can't be cheap...)
Nothing witty here.... move along.

what does your rifle weigh? I have shot one that was 11lbs......nothing to be afraid of at all.

I think it's in the 9 pound range.  It's a relatively short gun even with a 24" tube ... er, pipe.

I had a buddy's for a while so that I could work up some loads for him. His was the CZ550. Great caliber that's very versatile. You don't need to run it full speed all the time, just when somebody else is watching. :chuckle: It was a very accurate caliber once I got the propper technique down. Shooting from seated position at the bench was not fun. From a standing bench though, load development wasn't all that bad.

You're going to love that gun. :IBCOOL:
