Graco makes a spring dampener and a mercury tube, never tried ether but worth a look.dannyjbiggs said:For heavy recoil, might consider using in combination with a Kick-eez recoil pad, the "Ken Rucker's Auto-Buster Recoil Reduction System", stock #100-004-743AN in the Brownells catalogue. It uses visible compression springs (two) to dampen recoil, and offers 3 spring sets with varying tensions. On a .300 WSM using 230's, the middle spring set will make you think that you are shooting a Win .284! Only drawback I've found is that if you have kids/grand kids, they keep wanting to use the rifle as a pogo-stick.
