its about like a 45/70 or a hot loaded 44mag in a light lever action

Without a muzzle break Shaun, recoil is similar to a lever action 30-30. This is because the semi-auto action soaks up a bit of recoil. It is not too bad actually. A good read : https://www.chuckhawks.com/450_bushmaster.html

we don't know what gun he is shooting it in Ruger makes one in Bolt action which will have a heavier recoil than a semi

Hey Shaun, felt recoil is perceived differently by each shooter. I would recommend checking with the range and fest firing one before purchasing if that's an option. Good luck!
