[QUOTE="Broz, post: 535155, member: 7503"] Welcome to the club, That is know as "Weatherby Rash" Seriously, your left hand was placed correctly. The problem was the placement of the recoil pad. It was not on your shoulder, it slid under into your armpit. I have been bitten many times over the years, is it always bad form on my part. Get straight behind the rifle, get the recoil pad on your shoulder, raise the bipod a little if needed but only what is needed to get the back up. Then right before the shot ease forward a bit to feel the stock placment and lightly pre-load the bipod a bit. Practice this form like you would with the form shooting a bow. It needs to be the same everytime for long range consistancy. Do this and it will never happen again.
