[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1053957, member: 10291"] +1. Skip states in the video that he is trying to simulate the free recoil set-up that he has on the bench when converting to prone. I have also seen POI shifts when you do this. The effect that has to be controlled is the barrels movement for the first 1/8-1/4" before the bullet leaves the barrel. When hunting, where shooting positions can vary greatly, just knowing the effect from bench to prone and adjusting for POI changes for these two positions is not enough for how I hunt. I found it to be useful to use rifle management techniques that keep the barrel orientation upon firing constant regardless of shooting position. I find this much harder to do when shooting free recoil, or light hold. I use a hard hold to get consistent POI. IMO [/QUOTE]
