I'm not 'whoop, but I have an opinion on the grip.
It felt awkward in my hands while setting or shooting from a bench. It didn't feel nearly as awkward when standing and shooting freehand. One thing I noticed immediately was the ability to stay on target in the freehand position.
I'm sure others will have the exact opposite opinion, but it was really easy for me to get on target away from a rest.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!
