RE: RANDOM..Has it happend to you
Yes, it has happened to me also. I think it has something to do with the number of rounds you fire, how thin your shirt is, and also it varies from one day to the next......

RE: RANDOM..Has it happend to you
Yep its happend to me.I always take a smaller rifle with me to shoot also. Something like my 22 Mag, 17 HMR, 223, or 204. I shoot 5-10 rounds from the big rifle then a few from the smaller one and i never seem to get a flinch. Ive went through 50 rounds of 338 Laupua Mag in one day and never flinched one shot.

dont overlook the noise aspect of things as well. alot of people associate flinches with recoil...which it very well can be...after 25+rds of the 06 youll feel it and become a little sore and sensative...but it also makes a pretty good boom. could be a flinch from just the anticipated boom and/or recoil...
good call with the dummy round and working to fix it....

RE: RANDOM..Has it happend to you
I don't think it has much to do with how many rounds you shoot. It could be the first one or the 10th. But if on one of your shots you aren't holding her down correctly she will bite you and it will make you flinch. I always bring the .22 to the range for just this reason. 30 rounds of .30-06 isn't all that bad at all. I agree with others that sound can also make you do it.
I hate the flinch. I always feel disappointed in myself when I get one.
