If one bag of lead shot works good, the two bags will work more better. I cracked the stock on my .35 Whelen. After my shoulder healed up, the Lead Sled slid away.
Might be why they call it a "sled" cause it needs to be able to slide a bit under recoil.If one bag of lead shot works good, the two bags will work more better. I cracked the stock on my .35 Whelen. After my shoulder healed up, the Lead Sled slid away.
Me too.. I find them to be to cumbersome.
I have something, forgot it.Carpet scraps are great for that.
Not a wimp, it’s just mind over matter if you don’t mind it don’t matter. I firmly believe that the issue of recoil generally results from faulty shooting form. I am not a Jack O’Connor fan but one thing he got right is teaching good shooting form. Get ahold of a copy of his book “the rifle” and it takes you through a step by step treatise on good rifle mounting, aiming, trigger control and follow through. They use O’Connors instructions in teaching new recruits in the military some of which have never handled a firearm before how to become proficient with them.I shoot plenty. Obviously, I'm a wimp.
2 pts you state that make no sense to me:For load development? Sure ...
For sighting in? No way ...
Free-floated barrel or not, I can position a rifle at various spots on any front rest and the point of impact changes, i.e., placed near the action or well out on the forend. Those who think otherwise really need to stop typing, step away from the keyboard and git out and shoot MORE, lol!
Yep. Remove ME from the equation.Load development: I'm looking for the smallest repeatable groups.
Love the bottom vise!!I bet. That's an age old problem, need a third hand.
Since my old Benchrest days when I purchased a barrel vice, I use it to hold guns for cleaning, attaching scopes the 1st time, etc.
