[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 523915, member: 30902"] Ok let's look at the change in center of gravity. We have a projectile that starts of about 1/4 of the length (from the rear) of the total rifle butt to end of bore, that who's mass is going to be something less than 1/277 of the rifle. Now typically we mount our bipods, or set the rifle on whatever rest we are using about 1/4-1/3 of the total length of the rifle back from the end of the bore. This shifting of center of mass is going to affect accuracy to what degree considering the bullet will be out of the end of the barrel in around .00133 seconds. How is that going to affect accuracy in light of all of the other forces acting on the rifle? [/QUOTE]
