[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1857397, member: 67552"] A lot of great information on form and technique related recoil management. I had never thought of the off-set bipod leg length. I did however start shooting a brake back in 1991. I had a 700 classic in 300Wby and from the prone recoil would fill my shirt with dirt or whatever I was laying on. With the addition of an inch and a half radial brake I went from almost selling that beast to adding it to the plinking arsenal. That one took some practice and it's distance dependent, but I can usually see the impact before the gun shifts out of the field of view. The biggest challenge is overcoming the blink reflex with the addition of the brake concussion. That does add a level of concentration, and at least for me actually helps my follow through and completing my trigger pull. I spend a lot of time chasing pheasants and waterfowl so my trigger pull can get a little "slappy". [/QUOTE]
