Much like big rifles, a standing hunters position is best for shooting these big kickers. Off the bench, arms way off the table (about a foot) and almost, but not quite, fully extended is best.
I have shot 400 gr. .416's at a measured 1900 fps but my palm suffered greatly. Heaven forbid getting the off hand knuckle or fingers in the way! That diabolical trigger guard whack. It's too much for me.
