[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 870389, member: 4809"] Some featherweight rifles have "pencil" barrels that are so thin, that barrel whip can become an issue. Try folding some paper or thin cardboard and placing it between the barrel and stock near the end of the forearm to create just the slightest bit of pressure. This runs contrary to a free-floating barrel, but sometimes fixes the problem by dampening the harmonics of a thin barrel. If it helps, remove the temporary paper and use a blob of epoxy to make it permanent. If not, just remove the paper - no harm, no foul. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
