[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1488918, member: 94491"] Squares or diamonds work better than round dots for me too. Make sure the bottom of the pistol grip or the magazine are not touching the bench...ar's have to sit higher on the bench than a bolt gun due to protrusions below the stock line. Also, try 2 different styles of shooting to see if 1 is better than the other. Freehold: put the rifle on bags (or whatever) use your trigger finger only on the trigger and use your other hand to squeeze the rear bag (or support the stock) and keep it lightly in your shoulder. Let it recoil "freely" Hard hold: rest the rifle on bags, use your off hand on the handguard or front of Maxwell to pull down and back to firmly seat it on the bags and your shoulder . Squeeze the trigger back all the way and hold it back until you see or hear your shot contact the target, then release the trigger. Did you ever say what twist rate and what bullet you were shooting? If they are handloads, do they show flattened primers or case head swipes? [/QUOTE]
