[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1660586, member: 54178"] To me "recoil effect" means two things: 1. force rearward to my shoulder upon cartridge ignition 2. rise of firearm barrel, whether shotgun, rifle or pistol. #1. rearward force, is mitigated by (a) soft butt pad/pistol grip (b) semi-auto gas or spring buffers or (c) in-buttstock mercury tube. #2.[I] rise of firearm,[/I] is mitigated by having a straight line recoil (or as close as possible) as with the Ruger Precision Rifle and AR rifles. #2 is what always makes me avoid a buttstock with lots of drop to the heel of the pad i.e. traditional Weatherby stocks. I always try to get a stock with a comb that[I] barely [/I]clears the bolt. A good example of this is Boyd's Classic laminated rifle stock. Beautifully designed and proportioned. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
