    I have a Redding beam. I glued some lead sheet on the underside for same reason.

    For better/faster dampening just replace the magnets with stronger ones. It won't effect accuracy.

    If the beam is not consistant sharpen the knife with a very, very fine stone and brush graphite in the V.

    I always use a check weight when I set up. Almost anything will do. As long as it's retained, kept clean and weight noted. e.g a 55gr bullet.

    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.
