Default RE: Alright guys, it's time for honesty

I could shoot either well if I had a good rest....like a tree trunk or something....but I've practiced a lot with .375 H&H and the 404 Jeffery!

I will admit that I must force myself to squeeze the trigger and that the temptation to jerk it is always there!

Those that haven't practiced this shooting style will never admit that they can't shoot the bigger bores.....and they have every excuse imaginable to explain the miss.

I'd guess that 50% of todays folks afield hunting deer etc cannot shoot the 30-06 without jerking and the number goes down quickly as the energy levels go up.

I'd also further hazad a guess that noise is as big a factor as recoil.
