[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 1100762, member: 39764"] I like to use a Caldwell Fire Control rest. I dislike strapping any rifle down in a 'Lead Sled' type shooting rest. The laws of physics say that the recoil has to be absorbed by something....your shoulder and the decellerator pad. An immobile rifle absorbs the recoil in the stock, bedding and elsewhere and a firearm isn't designed to do that, at least in my opinion. With the Caldwell Fire Control, you still take the recoil but the rifle is situated in a 2 point rest thats adjustable with a 'joy stick' arrangement. I find it to be the 'cats meow' for shooting a load ladder, takes the wiggle out of shooting groups for placement. The only firearms you cant boresight by sighting down the tube at the target is a semi automatic and a pistol. I use a laser boresighter on my black guns and my revolvers. [/QUOTE]
