[QUOTE="edge, post: 130495, member: 5030"] Not sure if this is the best place for this question, but here it goes. I have a Savage model 110 that I put a #7 taper barrel on it. 1.250 at the lug. The rifle weighs a tad over 12 pounds and is VERY barrel heavy. This is a carry rifle and I use either a rest or sticks to shoot it. My question is, is there any advantage to adding weight to the rear of the stock to balance the weight? Recoil is not a big issue for me, but would it help the rifle shoot better? Obviously I don't want to add weight if it will only help the feel of the rifle and not add to it functionally. Thanks, edge. [/QUOTE]
