I wont say I enjoy recoil but I don't mind it either. I can handle anything up to a 44 magnum with no problem. I have been shooting big calibers for so long that I know they will kick but not hurt me. My range time is usually spent with , fairly warm loads in 357 Magnum up to my hot loads in 45 Colt. If I am using rifles it ranges from my 30/30, My 7.62 SKS and my Enfield in .303. As I said, I know they are going to kick but nothing that will harm me. I used to shoot Black powder competition with 50 caliber and an afternoon of shooting those will bruise a shoulder, no matter how well you have it pulled in to your shoulder. After an afternoon of BP competition I would be on the verge of flinching. An old friend cured me of that.
He would take whatever I was shooting and make me turn my back while he would re-load for me, then pass it back . I would line up on the target and squeeze that trigger. The second or third time he did that, I squeezed the trigger and just heard a click and it was a dry fire. I also realized that the muzzle had gone down at the moment I pulled the trigger. After a couple of times of that happening, (true flinching) I was so embarrassed, that I learned to squeeze the trigger again, with no flinching! no matter what the caliber. It was a great lesson and is applicable to rifles shotguns and pistols.
Don't be afraid of recoil, it's a natural phenomena, Sure I sometime shoot .22 and enjoy it., but I do enjoy shooting the larger calibers.
Try it and you might like it too, and if you do flinch, have someone load for you, so that you never know when a shot is going to go off or not. I guarantee that after a couple of times of click and seeing the muzzle jump, you will start squeezing that trigger and accuracy will improve dramatically.
In summary, shoot whatever you are comfortable with and above all, Enjoy it!
