[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 946856, member: 5219"] It will help to mount the rifle higher on the bench. Hunkering down behind a hard kicker causes you to lean into the rifle so you cannot roll with the recoil as easily. I have read of guys using a bench that you use standing up for some hard recoiling rifles. I remember reading in one of the big bullet manufacturer's loading manual years ago that they used a 25 lb bag of lead shot between the stock and shoulder when developing loads for the 460 Weatherby to "prevent badly bruised shoulders." Some shooters use the Past recoil pad: [url]http://ads.midwayusa.com/find?userSearchQuery=past+recoil+pad&cm_mmc=ps_google-_-ST_Range_Supplies_Equipment_Alpha_G-_-past+recoil+pad-_-1t1&gclid=CL6t0dTHgL4CFQ5gMgodXDgAPQ[/url] I quit using mine because I couldn't get the stock into a consistent place on my shoulder. I now use the shooter's friend when I shoot the rifles with heavy recoil: [url="http://www.cabelas.com/product/The-Shooters-Friend-Recoil-Pad/740373.uts?Ntk=AllProducts&searchPath=%2Fcatalog%2Fsearch.cmd%3Fform_state%3DsearchForm%26N%3D0%26fsch%3Dtrue%26Ntk%3DAllProducts%26Ntt%3Dshooter%2527s%2Bpal%2Brecoil%2Bpad%26WTz_l%3DHeader%253BSearch-All%2BProducts%26x%3D24%26y%3D11&Ntt=shooter's+pal+recoil+pad&WTz_l=Header%3BSearch-All+Products"]The Shooter's Friend Recoil Pad : Cabela's[/url] [/QUOTE]
