Re: Bench-rest or Prone Shooting
I gave up prone shooting due to physical limitations. Benchrest for me.
Purveyor of fine cast boolits.
All round good guy and VERY grumpy old man.

Re: Bench-rest or Prone Shooting
I'm the same as dodgyrog - it's strictly benchrest for me too. I might be able to get into a prone position, but I'd need a couple of paramedics to get me out of it.
I can't help on the Hampshire quessie - sorry.

Re: Bench-rest or Prone Shooting
When I'm at the club I bench rest shoot pretty much all the time, the wife however hates it & will only shoot stood up which the club love.
When I'm out with my mate however we always shoot prone with his rifle having a bipod, I do struggle a bit to be honest but think that's down to technique/set up rather than the actual prone position.
