I purchased it online for 39 bucks, then 19 for the mounting bracket. Installation was easy enough, although I had to purchase a 6 inch extension for my screwdriver in order to get one of the screws in.

FWIW, (excluding muzzle brakes) I've come across 3 types of recoil reducer. Mercury tube, which I have in my rifles, the tungsten bead version as fitted in the blaser rifles and the oil and piston version. - All have worked very well indeed, but because they were all fitted into different rifles and calibres, it's really impossible to make any kind of realistic comparitive analysis. That said, the oil and piston version was the only one that was completely silent when the rifle was tipped up or down. Whatever one you have fitted, it's essential that it's fitted absolutely correctly. If it's done wrong, it's possible for the stock to split.

- I've seen that happen to two clients rifles. - One of those was in a brand new Sauer and it happened in the middle of the Selous on about day 2 of the guy's hunt.

- Luckily I had a spare rifle he could use. I made the mistake of 'home installing' a mercury recoil reducer. I drilled the hole, stuck the reducer in, plugged the hole with a dowl and put the recoil pad back on.

Two shots into testing the backing plate of the recoil pad cracked from the reducer moving backward. To get the reducer in I had had to tap it with a mallet because the fit was so tight: the recoil moved it anyway. If I had to do it over again, I would have it professionally fitted. It took the better part of a day to carve out the reducer and fit a new recoil pad. The other home remedy I tried, on the other hand, worked great.

I used about 1/2 lb of lead shot mixed with epoxy to fill the forearm of my 458's stock; it really redued muzzle rise and actually helped balance the gun, which had been butt- heavy before. - 05/15/08 Re: Mercury Recoil Reducers - which one to go with?

You will (or should be) shooting very few shots from the bench.

Wear a thick pad when you do. Most of your practicing should be offhand, and dry firing is the best way to train your eye-hand-rifle coordination anyway. When firing live ammo make sure you grasp the rifle hard with both hands and have it tight into your shoulder.

Your scope should have good eye relief (such as Leupold's 1.5-5) and be installed as far forward as you can get it without vignetting. I do this and have no more problem than with my.300 Weatherby.

In fact, the Weatherby is worse because, in my normal offhand position, the bolt hits my trigger finger knuckle. You will only be shooting a very few shots at game. Don't sweat the recoil. Oh.something very important.make sure you're a reasonably good shot with lower recoiling centerfire frifles, down to and including the.223. 2go pc nl2 drivers license. Finally, contrary to popular opinion, small and skinny guys do not have more trouble with recoil than big fat guys.
