offhand advise needed
Posted: Wed Jan 10, 2024 3:29 pm
I recently started shooting offhand with my 1962 Anschutz SuperMatch 54. It's a very heavy rifle, and I was struggling to hold it with my supporting hand. So I added a palm rest which made it significantly easier to hold even though it is now over 13 lbs. After I adjusted palm rest, my cheek rest became uncomfortable, so I lowered it about 2-3 mm. I used to really press my face into the cheek rest, and now it's comfortable.
As a result, the size of my groups decreased dramatically. However, all groups shifted straight down very visibly and very slightly to the left. I am not sure what to do now.
Should I re-adjust my sights? Should I raise the cheek rest back? Something else?
Thank you!
