[QUOTE="Mustang72, post: 1600489, member: 109065"] 300 whisper-- I kinda have the same thing. Been hunting my a 30/06 that was my dad's for about 30 years. I put a good kick-was pad and set the trigger at 2-1/2 lbs. The newer rem pads are about the same,just weren't around back then. That was one of the best choices I ever made! I don't know how many 06 s I 've shot but that one was the worst. After the pad it is fun to shoot off of a bench. Since I shoot it more and did a lot more load development after the pad i have more confidence with it and a longer range for hunting. This has been an interesting thread,but I think this is what the Op was first getting at. I don't regret at all that the stock was cut down a little for the pad. The only other changes ever made was a new sling and scope--out of necessity. No bedding or floating and shoots under 1/2 inch groups with 165 s. [/QUOTE]
