Thanks for the suggestions. I hunt whitetail deer in Wv. Recoil doesn't present a problem its the loss of ability to hold a long heavy gun steady.
An alternative is to see a local fitness trainer, and get a workout routine to strengthen your body so you CAN hold your current rifles. At 76 I work out 2x/ week and have no problems shooting my 42" barreled flintlock (.45cal) for hunting or a short range trip. All day shooting is tough after 15 shots or so, due to degrading discs in my back. Exercise also has other benefits (overall feeling better, more stamina, better sleep).
