    Where you holding it tight enough to your shoulder? My son has a couple rifles over fifty caliber, and I don't think I will shoot either of them.

    DD, unfortunately no. Had my head up my you know what when I first shot it on a stand to zero it in. I shot it 5 times after that the right way.

    It is MsB it is...

    ttnguy,

    What on earth did you do to yourself?? You didn't hold this gun properly? Ouch, you'll feel this for sometime.
    Be safe, and have a Merry Christmas.

    Yes Sandy, I didn't hold the butt tight enough against my shoulder and it kicked me hard.

    Limbsaver is another brand, but kinda pricey.

    These things help the feel of the gun with us longer armed fellers too.

    Unc, wouldn't having less "rain farts" cost less than that? :) Get to feeling better.

    It gives you a whole new respect for the fella's who carried those, an M98, or an M1 all day long, firing most all day long. Says something for kill or be killed, I'm sure.
