[QUOTE="41mag, post: 164490, member: 3804"] #1 Please describe your optimum prone position for best accuracy in the field. Angling (30-45 degrees?) to target or torso in a straight line? Guessing I would say my body angling lees than 45 degrees. Depends on which rifle and the terrain and time I have to prepare. #2 Please describe the position of your feet - flat to ground or upright on an angle. Generally left foot extended and right foot pulled up close to my left knee. #3 Please describe, if you have not covered this in #1, the position of your elbows, head and neck. My right elbow is extended about 90degrees to the butt of the rifle and my left elbow is generally extended outward towards the target so that I can support the rear bag or rest. Head and neck aligned to get a full sight picture in the scope. [/QUOTE]
