If you're referring to mine, that was a load development group, with the other 5 groups all being under 0.4

More a stroke of luck with a POS than the norm

not yours on its own, everybody seems to be doing 1-2 group tests and posting them which is the complete opposite if what Gimp was talking about at the start of the thread

Tussock - I found the cheek resting heavy had most noticeable results in rifles with higher recoil, it seems to help make the recoil more uniform. Dont know the exact science but it works and is on its own makes a huge difference in shooting consistency

I have a strong feeling that the harder cheek weld is probably promoting better follow through, which makes a big difference to accuracy and consistency. I see a lot of shooters who seem to be in a big hurry to get the rifle off the shoulder and the next round chambered before the bullets hit the target ( figuratively speaking that is ).
