Cut felt recoil by around 25 - 30%

Poor mans mercury recoil reduction device



Been doing it for years
835
935
930
And other synthetic stock guns

Most are always barrel/ front heavy.



Also adding weight helps get your balance point under the receiver just behind of the mag follower/tube loading port and the front of the lifter for comfortable 1 hand carrying.

Hell if I'd weight it down with sinkers one of the appealing aspects of the 835 is it's light weight....man up and shoot it or move along
Been killing gobblers with an 835 since the 1st yr they came to market
