Hi all,

I'm interested in your opinion on your shooting position and reasons why u adopt your preferred form.

I originally learnt to shoot prone with both legs extended in a Vee (both heels flat) with the R leg pretty much in line with the rifle. However, i have recently changed to R knee up on the advise of a very accomplished fullbore shooter. He beleives this keeps your shoulders level and reduces diaphragm effects. It does feel a little strange though. My only concern is that i'm sensing a little more pressure fwd towards the rifle. I like to keep some pressure on the butt but i did notice some elev stringing when i made this change. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this :wink:
