[QUOTE="Deleted member 115374, post: 1999906"] I like the limbsavers as well. I have them on several rifles, 2-300 win mag,338 win mag,375 HH and a 308 win in a mod. 99 savage that I bought for my son as his 1st rifle. All rifles seem to shoot to the same point of impact after they were installed vs before. One thing I have found out over the yrs. is the shooter needs to be consistent in stock placement on the shoulder as well as being "square behind the gun". By that I mean- body not too far offset sideways one way or the other depending if you are right or left handed and also not directly inline with the gun- especially when prone. If your gun is rotating upward when fired, check the position of your shoulder on the stock before you send one downrange. Sometimes it is just a matter of repositioning your shoulder on the stock until you get the desired results then getting used to it so it becomes automatic and you are in the "zone". Another thing you might try is shooting it off a lead sled or similar platform without strapping the barrel down and see how it behaves and where the force of recoil is in relation to the pad.
