Sight on the target and when you think you have a good hold, close your eyes and really relax. Few moments the open your eyes and see if your still aiming at the same spot. If not, move your feet toward the direction your off till you get the tension out.
This is an excellent tip.

When you get your sling (and you might as well get one from the Appleseed folk if you're going to an Appleseed shoot) adjusted right you'll be able to relax in the position and your rifle will still remain pointed at the target. Like the above man said don't "muscle" the gun onto the target. Adjust your position so the gun points naturally at the target.

Appleseed Store for a sling:

And here's a video on shooting prone from the national para-Olympic shooting coach.
