[QUOTE="Wild Bill G, post: 1340477, member: 96281"] I had never thought of how much tourque was put on the rifle with the lead sled. It had crossed my mind and I had heard they were hard on action screws. Another question just came to me after reading about bipods. Do shooting sticks act more like the free sliding bag rests. I have never carried a rear bag in the field nad can see how it would aid in accuracy. Looks like I will leave my lead sled to my recoil shy friends who deny they flinch. Sadly that statement is not a joke. I have one friend I know that has to have a horrible flinch. One year shooting at 30 yards at a deer's chest he got a head shot. He thought it was great the deer dropped in its tracks. This has happened several times and he shrugs it off. A couple years back while sighting in I loaded a empty into his gun. He had to see if the gun was loaded and saw what I had done and was furious at me. Some day I will find a way to catch him and prove he has a flinch. I realize practice is our best friend and I try as much as possible too. Years ago I learned what a difference it makes. From now on it will be without my lead sled. [/QUOTE]
