[QUOTE="Vinootz, post: 1670829, member: 110410"] I don't shoot prone either. Very firm grips on fore end and trigger hand work best for me in terms of consistency and precision. And of course pulling rifle firmly into pectoral muscle(chest). However it does cause muscle fatigue squeezing so firmly. Waiting for the barrel to cool while breathing deeply helps oxygenate arm muscles to help with fatigue. I just cant get as precise and consistent with a more relaxed hold. Forget about free recoil for me- I don't even bother with that-too much muzzle jump. Part of my precision comes from keeping my eye on the point of aim through the scope lens after I pull the trigger. I truly wish I could use a lighter grip for precise groups- I guess I have to work on that. [/QUOTE]
