Whilst it doesnt stop iylts use for that - none of the design amd ergonomics were considered as a paper punching solution.

I would say most would buy a true bullpup primarily as a hunting tool or - maybe - they need a smaller shooting solution because or physical limiting factors like dodgy shoulder or the like
I would of agreed fully but my best groups paper punching at 50yds have been with a bullpup and a guy shoots a pulsar at our range benchrest comps and does well, Ive a bad back so find using a pup at the bench for hours uncomfortable for me but plenty do. I never thought Id buy a bullpup after years of rifles but simply gelled within a few shots, one thing that definitely improved was my standers.

Rob mentions scope height but I find this beneficial as it keeps the pup in my shoulder, stops the crooked neck and tightens poi holds up further out, admittedly I only use x1.5 inside and x2.5 outside.

The only rifle I can see me buying in the future is the Anshutz 9015BR, but I could never carry it about up the farm..

Shoot, enjoy, repeat whatever you have
