I'm about to make an upholstered stand from the cut-down frame of my kids' old swing. I intend to have adjustable elbow pads below the normal height so the right arm can be held low to make more muscle tension in the right shoulder. I'm also considering a LIGHT weight on a string over the main bar, leading back to a leather thong over the butt, to reduced recoil slightly. This weight setup has an instant adjustment provision and a compression tent spring to reduce danger to the rifle under initial shock of discharge. Whether point of impact is affected by this stuff remains to be seen.

Cheers
- Paul
