[QUOTE="ducky, post: 2808602, member: 94420"] It was a pretty traumatic experience and could have been much worse. I fell from about 20 feet and it was life changing to say the least. Worst thing was this happened a week before an elk hunt I burned 15 points on. Luckily it was before Colorado changed the rules and I was able to get my points back. [ATTACH type="full"]459278[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]459279[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]459280[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]459281[/ATTACH] I'm pretty sure I'm 75% the cause of my issues with this rifle. 🤣 If I can get it to shoot with the suppressor I'll be happy. I really don't want to use a muzzle brake, as the suppressor greatly changes how the rifle acts at the bench. I know a brake would fix most of my issues, I'm just not fond of them. This isn't my first time with a light rifle. I have a 7.5 lbs M70 .30-06 with a 2.5-8X36 VX3 in Talley light weights, and I've never been better than 1.25-1.5 MOA with it as well. I found a SS M70 Classic barreled action, and then picked up a used McMillan Hunters Edge stock and had it pillar and glass bedded by Kevin Weaver. It's a joy to hunt with, but abusive from the bench. Especially when I shoot 180 grain + bullets. [/QUOTE]
