2. I am going to have to file down the inside edge on my bolt knob. It scraped the skin off my trigger finger just below the knuckle. lol.
You might try a bit firmer grip in order to accomplish the solution. I went through this years ago with both a 340 Weatherby as well as my little 358 Winchester in a Model Seven (with the knurled bolt knob). It doesn't take a lot to keep your hand moving with the rifle, but that is what is needed. I suppose that also means relaxing your arm somewhat so your hand isn't forced to be part of the 'recoil control'; I haven't really paid any attention to whether I have changed my technique in that regard,
it seems like it only happens to me when I am sitting down shooting, i.e. sighting in, etc.
It hasn't happened when I'm standing. Probably because my whole body moves more when standing, instead of just my shoulder?
