[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 508292, member: 24624"] I have to confess that I don't really know enough about either discipline to have an intelligent discussion. I was of the impression that benchrest rifles were huge, no-taper barrels and large, heavy, stiff actions and that you still wouldn't be comfortable changing the stock and shooting one prone without a rest. I guess the terminology that caught my attention was ??? Palma = long and whippy Benchrest = short and stiff Perhaps it's just semantics... But, does it translate into practical application for hunters? [/QUOTE]
