Early Christmas

With opening day of rifle season startin Saturday I got to brag a little about my new toy/portable cannon I am picking up tomorrow. I just bought a Winchester Model 70 338 ultra mag. Such a great deal I couldnt leave it on the shelf. I am a little scared of the damage it will do to my shoulder but hoping I get the chance to use it Saturday on a BIG BUCK. The guy I bought it from said the first time he shot it he saw stars for a week from the scope busting him in the eye. he put 6 shots thru it and said screw it and bought a 270. I currently shoot a 25-06 Ruger so I know it will kick considerably harder than that. Anybody here have any experiance with a 338?
