[QUOTE="SMK1000plus, post: 1609103, member: 93846"] I agree with Mud on the stock. It is inline with and close enough to the axis of the bore, and the butt angle, heel to toe, compared to the that axis, looks correct at about 90°. The stock balance may be an issue, especially if it is disproportionately light up front. I believe you could dampen the muzzle flip/jump some by changing the butt angle a bit, (shorten ONLY the toe about a 1/4" or so and leaving the heel at its present lenght) to ensure the toe isn't receiving more recoil force than the heel. I also agree with the others that suggest a good side ported muzzle brake with top ports. It would drastically reduce the jump you are experiencing. [/QUOTE]
