I view bag riding like free recoil;
You either go all in or don't do it. Everyone is different just like each rig has it's own personality. So if the stock design,slickness,and bags allow for a good sliding ride... great. But if there's a hitch in the trip... ehh,not so good.
Like free recoil... don't half arse it. You either let the weight and balance of rig do it's thing,recoiling on it's own. Or..... work on maintaining a specific amt of shoulder pressure. Non committal on either just creates more problems.
Not sayin that's the problem here.... just a polite heads up. Heck,most of my hunting rigs have stocks intentionally set up to be grippy.... for all the right reasons. Well they are a blooming handful off formal BR style rests. Slim grippy forearms don't slide worth a hoot. And they torque like crazy. Now add a skinny barrel.
Would love to see a pressure trace as a jacked up '06 shooting 175 CB's at jacketed velocity.... "took off" from its moorings. Look at a top fuel dragster when it wheel hops on launch..... the vibrations go through the whole vehicle just looking for an exit. Cars literally jump off the track.... I'm saying that's what's happening on rifles.
It's happening on bench guns BUT they are designed (some way better than otbers) to cope with it.
