Thread: Best hold for ultralight rifle

This is an interesting thread , and I’ll add my uneducated two cents to it .
I believe that the rear of the rifle steers and effects it more than the front.
As long as the front rest is good and secure/firm then the rear support/rest is where your attention should be .
Bipods and loading them up is an interesting one , what your doing is getting repeatable shoulder pressure on the stock which is desirable.
With practice you can achieve repeatable shoulder pressure using your trigger hand to pull the stock into your shoulder.
I’ve only recently gone down the muzzle brake path ( Australia’s silly no suppressor laws have dictated that , my NZ rifle wears a DPT can ) .
I like the recoil reductions of a brake but man it’s loud , I’m still trying to find workable realistic hunting ear protection solution to that problem .
I don’t really know what I’m talking about , but I steer the rifle from the rear and don’t hold the forend if I can help it .
