[QUOTE="lerch, post: 183792, member: 3115"] the purpose of a palm swell. well to be honest i have never heard or read anything on the exact reasoning behind it but they sure are comfortable. I suppose having your entire hand in relaxed contact with the rifle stock would limit strain and thus shaking of that hand as well as getting a consistant positioning of the finger on the trigger. I figure on a standard stock it is easy to get your finger to far over on the trigger and pull with more of the middle or back of the finger rather than the tip where you should be. By having the swell fill what would normally be a gap between your palm and the rifle I guess you get into a more consistant routine and also have a more relaxed yet solid grip on the gun I guess that really aint a answer but more of just my opinion. good question! take it easy steve [/QUOTE]
