[QUOTE="41mag, post: 164489, member: 3804"] #1 Do you control the rifle with both left and right hands? I prefer to only use my right hand to hold the grip. #2 Do you vary the hold according to the caliber and weight of the rifle? Yes depending on the recoil, I might rest my left hand on the top of the scope to prevent the rifle from jumping the bag. #3 Do you vary the hold depending on the field shooting position? Depends on the situation, if I am able to shoot prone, I would rather only hold the rifle with my right hand and use the left to support the rear bag or rest. If using sticks or other similar type rest the left hand is generally supporting the forend of the rifle stock and the rest. #4 Do you prefer vertical pistol grips vs curved grip design? All the sticos I have use the curved grip so I guess I prefer it at this time. [/QUOTE]
