Rereading this thread before I went to the range today mustv'e helped. Where I was getting 6" 5-shot groups last time out, I was getting 3 1/2" groups today, with the best being 3 3/8". 5 shot groups at 100 yds with my M1A, Military Prone.
My groups seemed to have a little verticalness to them, maybe this is from being military prone (with my diaphragm against the ground). You said to pull one knee up so the diaphragms off the ground, like Olympic prone? I'll have to try that.
I outshot both other guys, with their scoped /06 & 308's and me with irons! That felt good! Concentrating on consistency of sight picture may have been the factor...
Best shot of the day IMO, was my first from a cold clean barrel, right in the 10 ring at/on a 100 yd sight in target. Great fun.
