[QUOTE="Catskills, post: 2811166, member: 106302"] I’m not sure I agree. I believe it’s consistency that matters most. If you could put identical pressure on the rifle every shot from shoulder, to grip pressure, I don’t believe accuracy should be impacted, whether on a traditional rest or the Benchmaster that I use. Unless there is something at play I don’t understand, muzzle jump with identical holds should provide consistent accuracy regardless of the method used. I’ve been puzzled because this has not been my experience with really light rifles (<6lbs). For shot to shot consistency when testing loads, I prefer the Benchmaster for light rifles (<7.5lbs) or heavy recoiling cartridges 340wby/300wby/7STW. Of course, I always do my final sight in from bags because the Benchmaster will cause impact to be 1 to 11/2” lower. [/QUOTE]
