[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1558790"] I like this post because when I improved my shooting with my light magnums, by adding a good recoil pad, I found that as long as you securely hold your rifle and have a scope with good eye relief, face it, any rifle is going to jump. So keep the crosshairs on and let that thing jump right into the recoil pad. The eye relief of better scopes will give more confidence that the possibility of scope kiss is minimized and once you're comfortable with the jump, your sensitivity to recoil is also minimized. My opinion is that a heavier gun will be a more stable base to shoot from, but I find no more accuracy or precision due to weight alone. [/QUOTE]
