[QUOTE="hybridfiat, post: 1091178, member: 72793"] My army instructor (sniper/marksman school) always insisted we hold that fore-end and pull it in tight. He'd go off the deep end if we curled the left arm back to support the right forearm. The idea is to keep muzzle jump down and consistent shot to shot. It takes more discipline to maintain the same grip each shot but it did seem to work. Try shooting my 7lb .35 Whelen without holding the fore-end and your forehead would soon look like a patchwork quilt from the stitches. Besides you have said it yourself, he is a competitive target shooter. [/QUOTE]
