Groups went from .4/.5/.6'' [had one .088'' :)] to 1.7/1.8/1.9'' , I'd place the rifle on the rest out at the end of the stock , then get a full grip with my trigger hand , pull rifle hard into my shoulder . Next shot do about the opposite , next shot place the Toe [recoil pad] high on my shoulder change the adjustable rest height and rear bag positions . Just whatever I could randomly think of changing . Groups quadrupled in size .

Still minute of deer but was an eye opener when I thought about shooting long range from field positions , varying angles and such . I can ALWAYS use more field position shooting practice when I see my groups shot from different field positions .



How many shots did you fire per group?
