I have an SPS Stainless in .30-06. I Find that the recoil is a bit much for me to get consistent groups that I am happy with. So I am thinking about possibly getting a heavier barrel with a muzzle-break, and a heavier stock. Right now my rifle only weighs 7.5 lbs. I don't do a lot of stalking for deer season and if I do, I wouldn't mind the extra weight. So I was wondering how hard and expensive those modifications might be. I am calling my local gunsmith to ask about barrels and muzzle-breaks. I might just need a muzzle break on the barrel I have and a new stock. BUT, I really want to reduce the recoil on this thing for the sake of accuracy. It is either this or trade for a different rifle. Thanks in advance.
