I am currently shooting a Anschutz 2013 with the 690mm barrel with a 10 Inch tube but do to being only 125 pounds this heavy of a barrel is too much for me.

Hello Albert, I believe that the picture was taken at a little bit of an angel and so it looks as though I am not leaning back much. I will try leaning back more to see if it helps though. Silentfury, I do not put a ton of pressure on the grip but there is some, but I think this may be part of the P...

Ok well that sounds like an option but is there anything I could do that won't cost much Or anything at all? Would there be any position changes I could do? I shoot with my legs 41 in apart and have my hand right in front of the action. If I can I will post a pic later. Any ideas appreciated. TEN DOT

Gun weight problems
I recently purchased a 2013 anschutz rifle in a 2313 stock. It has the longer barrel, I think it is the 660 or 690mm. I have shot it some and find that in standing my lower back begins to hurt. I believe this is do to the fact that the rifle weighs close to 14 pounds and I am only 5' 7'' and 125lbs....

All we did was put seran wrap in the hole we wanted to fill mixed the lead shot with epoxy and poured. It worked out...
