[QUOTE="osok-1k, post: 2783450, member: 106259"] I attended the FBI sniper school in 2004 and the vast majority of our shooting was done prone, certainly many other shooting positions / environments were taught as well, shooting from wnidows five stories up, from a hide in the back of a rooom through a window, prone on a roof, etc. My best accuracy was done prone, one group measured .012 (3 rounds). A lot of stress shooting was employed and my 200 yd test measured .27 (3 rounds). No handloads, Federal 168 GM factory loads. Bi-pod and butt bag with forward press on the bi-pod to load it. Since then I've had neck surgery and fused some vertabrea so prone is difficult but I can elevate my chest with a backpack that is not full and use the bi-pod effectively. Like the Marines say, adapt and overcome. Fundamentals of breathing correctly, making sure you pull straight back on the trigger and being relaxed mean more than shooting positions but you still have to be somewhat comfortable or you'll ever be able to relax. No led sled for me. [/QUOTE]
