  1. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

    Limbsaver is another brand, but kinda pricey.

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

  15. I know how you feel, shot my nagant for the first time not long ago, quit after 10 rounds. that metal butt plate.......

  16. 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.
