[QUOTE="grit, post: 622422, member: 4112"] Mabey a little tighter than the .17. Snug, like holding a girl close. Just not like lifting weights. An unbraked 7mag is gonna push you a little. I would start with dry fire excercises. Hold on a small, distant target and dry fire. Adjust your hold, body position, tension, and trigger squeeze until the crosshairs stay put when you fire. Then go hot. Pay attention to where the rifle lands after recoil. This will tell you if you're pulling the rifle around, or if the set up needs adjustment. Ideally, you want to be able to recover your sight picture and watch the bullet hit. This'll be tough in an unbraked mag. Have a buddy load for you and not put a round in once in a while. This will comically illustrate flinching. If you can't shoot it well, brake it! In my opinion, ear plugs are easy. A flinch is a bear. [/QUOTE]
