I have another drill for you. This is more about proper shooting and less about the recoil.

Try this routine when it's your turn to shoot.

First, just get yourself used to the sound of the other guns firing. Your wearing hearing protection so you will hear them and even feel them, but it doesn't hurt. Once your comfortable with the different booms and bangs, do like they said above, put a few rounds into the berm if you need too to settle in.

Now that Model 700 is a bolt gun. Get someone to help you, let them load one round into the chamber, or let them pretend to load a round, the idea is that you don't know if it is loaded or not, if it will go bang or not.

But you will get to see if you anticipate the recoil the first time the gun is empty when you pull the trigger and don't know it. This works better after you have shot a few and all of a sudden it doesn't fire.

Once you see what you are doing, you'll be able to work through it.
