The lack of feedback will definitely mask your mistakes, making them more difficult to analyze & pinpoint and thus, more difficult to rectify.
Does a stablilizer / absorber remove feedback? I thought it would help show more feedback by removing the recoil. Recoil would remove feedback because you can't really see what exactly happened to the sights.

If this statement is true, then it means that you can indeed buy points.
There have always been guns that are more forgiving of mistakes than others.
That's one of the reasons why, in the '80s, so many people moved to the FAS602 (in my case from the GSP). Overnight, badly performed shots went from being 7s to 8s.
There's no substitute for good technique. If you fire a good shot with any reasonable gun then it will be a ten. The difference between guns is what happens when you fire a bad shot, and how easy it is to consistently fire good ones.
If that wasn't true then we would all still be using FWB65s.
