[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1007226, member: 30902"] Free recoil just means you are allowing the rifle to slide back on recoil vs having it clamped down in a shooting vise or lead sled. Most of us like to "load" the rifle by leaning into it and getting it firmly planted in the crease of your shoulder. That doesn't much matter with light recoiling rounds like a .223 but as you get up into the magnums it really does because the rifle can do a heck of a lot of moving around before the bullet makes it from the chamber to the end of the barrel and the magnums will beat the snot out of you to boot! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
