[QUOTE="101stCurrahee, post: 1917796, member: 111731"] It’s been almost a year but that last time I shot I used my SCAR17 in .308 with an Elcan 9x and was shooting 1moa max consistently with vet frequent sub MOA groups. I had corrective surgery (Lasik) but do have an astigmatism. It didn’t effect me then outside using RDS sights that looked like a starburst. So to make sure I’m understanding- the recoil management on a magnum is more of a vice like wrenching down with bipod loading, cheek weld, and shoulder pressure? I’ve been keeping steady pressure consistently but not trying to muscle it super hard. After the shot breaks it does go crazy and I expect to have to do a lot of repositioning. Even in the sled. FWIW I kept my break and suppressor off for this test to eliminate any other factors. Maybe putting them back on would help. Although as I mentioned I fired on an empty chamber by accident and had no flinch so I don’t imagine I’m anticipating the shot. [/QUOTE]
