[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 141790, member: 704"] Svnmag that was a good video. I can't remember the guys name, but a well known bench rest shooter had an article much the same as this video in Shooting Times a couple of years ago. The Ruger American had just come out and he was shooting it in 223. His groups clover leafed with that inexpensive firearm. He really laughed at the idea some people had about a "good cheek weld". He felt nothing destroyed bench rest grade groups faster than pushing your check hard to the stock. It drives me nuts when I see these people who put their hand on top of their scope and press down. I don't touch my forend when shooting off a bipod. If I stay down around 10 power my target stays in view even with a 300 mag. It bounced out on 16x. If it's out around 1000 yards often on 16x it drops back down and into view before the bullet strike. Sometimes it falls left or right if I don't have the stock in position on my shoulder. My light 300 WSM bucks out of view often. [/QUOTE]
