We must be a little more refined than the barbarians shooting FTR

Hi All
Have a RAD fitted to my Speedy Stock SAUM and love it easy to load your weight up and balances the rifle at the action.

The Ruckers bump buster as I use in my 2 newest guns (latest I just posted in photo section) is a hydraulic dampened spring loaded shock absorber. You can adjust the hydraulic damping of the shock absorber cylinder.
