Need some advice on firing posture and hold..

i also notice you grip the forend making sure some of it sits on the tripod not the barrel of course yet you are able to grip the remains forend so you can still roll with the shot…no part of your hand touches the tripod

They break down in 3 pieces and easily fit in my suitcase.

In regard to forend resting on the sticks, true. Also, I have the Els padded sling which works nicely almost like a sandbag lying flat on the sticks.

Sounds like the Stock may be a bit short from the banged knuckle and bruised bicep.... Practice shooting on and off the sticks lots of good drills out there .... When shooting a double your hand should always be between the barrels and what ever you are resting it against or you will change the point of impact... hopefully you have not developed a flinch... I always end a range session with either reduced loads for my Big Bores or a .22 to re-establish good shooting form.... prees the trigger see the hole..
 
A few more trips to the range, a nice tripod and I will figure it out quickly.... .375 or 9.3X62 most probably the later will be my next gun in near future.

I’ll just add a quote - “The .450/.400 NE - The first double you should buy, and the last double you should sell - Dr. Kevin Robertson”

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
