Summary
Bench shooting a rifle often increases perceived recoil because the shooter is rigidly supported and less able to naturally absorb movement. The article explains that this can affect both comfort and accuracy when sighting in or testing ammunition. To reduce felt recoil, it recommends several practical techniques. Shooters should maintain a firm, consistent shoulder mount and sit more upright, rather than hunched over the bench. Using recoil pads or shoulder shields helps spread impact force and reduce pain. Proper use of sandbags, slings, or weighted rests can further stabilize the rifle. Heavier rifles, reduced loads, and suppressors also significantly lessen recoil.
