[QUOTE="CAV2108, post: 1568925, member: 102644"] Personally, I use a bipod, but you should really be using a lead-sled. The idea of load development is repeatable accuracy. Having YOU or your GRIP or your FLINCH or your headache du jour isn't part of load development. You need a lead-sled and at least a 24x simple crosshair or dot scope. Exact same point of aim, shot to shot, and no other input except the variations in the ammunition you are trying to develop. Anything else risks minute changes from shot to shot that will render your accuracy results completely invalid except by accident. Once the load is developed, then practice shooting from your expected field rest: bipod, tripod, sticks, rucksack, rump of your dead horse or fender of your quad-runner, whatever you expect to use in the field. Then you will know what the load is capable of, and you can practice until you can determine what YOU are capable of. [/QUOTE]
