[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 116050, member: 2011"] stric9, As to your questions: 1 How does 'it' fall from the grip? 2 Sounds like way to much work to reduce recoil. And why would you want to swap a sendero stock for a choate? Here's my experience: I added weight to the stock of a 338 Win to reduce recoil. Recoil reduced but I still wasn't about to shoot it prone. I added a Holland QD brake and shooting all afternoon with 250s from the prone position was no problem. THEN I learned that adding weight counteracts the effects of the brake (per fiftydriver's posts here). I now have a 10.8 pound semi-carry rifle that would have less recoil if I could get the lead out. The lead is poured in thus pretty much unremovable. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] I'd reconsider the added weight except if you like the feel a little better but I don't quite see how a Choate could feel good. BTW, my rifle rifle is now a 338 RUM and I don't anticipate any recoil problems. Also, a Limbsaver recoil pad made as much difference as the added weight. Get a good brake, Defensive Edge or Holland QD. Recoil will be a non issue. And stick w/the sendero stock. I also trashed the scope that I had been using within 10 shots of switching to the brake.
