Where are you guys putting the buttpad of the rifle when shooting prone (off a bipod if that changes anything). When I'm more upright, I put the buttpad into the pocket of my shoulder. But I'm pretty skinny and find that if I try to do the same when prone off a bipod, my back has to REALLY arch back and it feels very awkward.
I've been putting the buttpad on my collarbone. Obviously this doesn't soak up recoil as well, though limbsavers make that basically a non-issue. My concern is more with the recoil characteristics of that position - whether the rifle will behave more or less consistently depending on where the butt is placed.
