[QUOTE="pburton, post: 988613, member: 48978"] AZShooter, I appreciate the response. I didn't think about the scope height having anything to do with the recoil. This is the 4th 7mag that I have owned over the years and definitely the post punishing to shoot. The one thing that I did notice is that the recoil pad on this HS stock is very stiff with kind of sharp edges. I am pretty sure that this is where the bite is coming from. The problem is that HS epoxies their recoil pads on which makes it a pain to remove and replace with a better pad. I did order a new scope rail and rings which should be here in a couple of days. I won't be able to get out and shoot it until this coming weekend though to find out if it makes any difference. If not it will being going back to the smith for a muzzle brake and a new recoil pad.
