[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 25360, member: 25"] We find that if we are shooting a lot our prone groups are close but not quite as tight or consistent to bench rested groups. I do not believe that anyone can shoot as well without rear support as with sandbags or sandsocks under the toe. There is a definite curve, your collar bone and neck muscles have to condition to prone shooting, as well as a few other parts of your body. Have seen some sub 1/2 minute groups from prone, but the guys had been doing a lot of shooting - sub MOA would be real good for most shooters. Your question is a good one, some guys have no idea how accurate prone shooting can be. But when it comes down to getting the very most of our shooting systems the bench and pedastal rules. Real challenge is to work at getting MOA or sub 2 minute accuracy from other field positions - as in sitting with a bipod rest. [/QUOTE]
