Sometime ago I purchased a Model 700 .375 Remington Ultra Mag. This thing really kicks. I put on the Remington aftermarket recoil pad which helped with the recoil a lot.
But when I shoot it the bolt still hits me in the trigger finger. And after about 2 shots it hurts like hell.
Would a different stock shape help? I am thinking about putting the harder recoil pad back on so it won't move backwards so fast and far.
And I do try and hold on to the pistol grip as hard as I can.
Any good advice?
PS I use the rifle for brown bear hunting and I often hunt by myself. So I really do like having a big rifle.
