I've been toying around with the idea of attending an Appleseed event. I spoke with the gentleman that runs it in my area. He offered to meet up with me at my local club sometime to do a qualifying shoot. It was a generous offer, but I want the full experience and I don't think I'll take him up on his offer. He did give me a few targets to test my skills, practice, or whatever.

Today at the range, I decided to try shooting prone. I've never tried before. I did this at the 50 yard range on a foam mat. I used my 22lr Marlin 981t(bolt action) with a cheap 3-9x40 scope and my recent PSA 5.56 AR-15 build with back up irons. I didn't use a sling on either...although, I know that is part of the Appleseed shoots.

I was impressed with the results and would like to work on honing this skill. The sights definitely moved more and shooting this way was a little tougher than bench shooting. Do those of you well versed in this position have any tips for me?
