i usually shoot with an atlas and rear bag prone. but recently was trying a very lightweight 300 saum, shooting it out of a basic caldwell rest and rear bag on a bench. i guess i have been spoiled but the recoil was definetely more than i was expecting. not sure how i would do any load testing with it because the accuracy is going to be well off . maybe it is just me. anyone else have any tips. i am not up for using a lead sled, if that is the only answer. i have tried putting my off hand on the scope, light resting to reduce muzzle rise but once again, the overall recoil is pretty rough. assuming the rifle is 1/2 moa capable, don't think i could make it do that.
