[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 1484134, member: 52437"] I can understand this but then what do you do then if you are working up loads for your wife or child? Also there have been times with my Savage lightweight hunter where my loads would open to 2.5inches on a known Sub MOA load. My wife took video of me shooting and you could see the rifle bouncing 4 inches into the air every once in a while off the rest I was shooting on. Same thing happens with my Remington Mountain SS. If I "man" handle the rifle...as in hold the stock very firm in my shoulder and hold the front of the rifle down then the groups shrink back up, or even free hand shooting, it can be better then using the typical front adjustable rest with rear bag system.. I was hoping to eliminate this kind of error with a sled just for load development. I am not recoil shy. I am just trying to eliminate all error for load development. That way, when I go to shoot the rifle later and have terrible groups OR my wife shoots it...we know it is us and not my reloads. [/QUOTE]
