    While doing that pull rifle into shoulder.
    Commence live fire lean into rifle and or pull butt into shoulder.

    with hearing protection on and leaning into it I bet you think "what the Fuck was i flinching for"

    noise not recoil is the major cause of flinches.

    Good luck.

    Thanks heaps.!!!
    Shot 3 groups with the 270 today at the range. After settling my nerves after the first group. i was getting groups of 1.5inchs at 100yds. About what everyone else does with highland ammo in the rifle.
    Still kicks lots but its easier to shoot. Usually i have had enough after 2 shots, i could of shot more but ran outa ammo.

    Just waiting on my 243 bedding job to finish. Hopefully get a lot more relaxed at shooting targets now.
