[QUOTE="grit, post: 622387, member: 4112"] Hard holds impart movement and adversely effect accuracy. You want a snug, but relaxed hold. Make sure the rifle can track properly, at least initially. The brake is a personal decision. But, for precision shooting I highly recommend it. Or better yet, suppress it. Absorbing recoil from positions where your body can move is much more comfortable than prone. Your brain and body will anticipate recoil. It's always easier to shoot lighter recoiling rifles accurately. It's possible you are creating muzzle rise through muscle tension. [/QUOTE]
