I used the old Teflon tape trick to time the new Ross brake to 1 o'clock. I don't think it will be going anywhere on it's own. The Ross brake will get the "Redneck" Rustoleum BBQ treatment that Sheepdawg has written about.
Now between today and tomorrow I need to get to my buddies farm and take a few shots. I want to test Hoot's Cheap Carrier Weight System for function and see if the Ross break will mitigate enough recoil so I don't have to recreate a Recoilless Stock that Gunny used to manufacture.
Thanks for all of your help.

Perceived Recoil Reduction improvements In this order:
Good Recoil Pad / Cheek Pad
Muzzle Brake
Lighter Loads
Longer Barrel
More weight in stock. (helps balance also)
Shock arresting stock like Gunny used to sell. You can make one yourself. Its not hard.
Everything else...
The CCWS is not for recoil abatement. Its to retard cycling for the sake of the brass.
We wait with bated breath for your results!
