[QUOTE="zoeper, post: 229201, member: 10682"] AJ, It's interesting that you would mention aspirin - I noticed the pulsing of the rifle (not my head relative to the scope) yesterday during a competition. It just so happens that i had a pounding headache for most of the day. I suspect that the headache was due to partial dehydration and while i do not like to take medication, just keeping well hydrated might have a similar effect as the aspirin - thinner blood???? I will definately explore that avenue further. I am very skinny and that would probably tie in with the thicker clothing theory. If i'm having rifle and bone with an artery in between, it would act like a hydraulic ram. Clothing, muscle mass or fat might dampen the effect.. When i first noticed it yesterday, i was shooting while seated on a stool and with the front end of the stock on a solid object. I had my right elbow on (just behind)my right knee and my right foot on the ground. The left arm/ elbow was unsupported while the left hand was holding the front end. Rifle is a stock standard hunting rifle. You really got me thinking AJ thanks Pieter [/QUOTE]
