One of my favorite things to do once I get a load worked up. Really helps a guy understand if your doing everything right and is pretty helpful when it comes to ARs since you really have to be in you P's and Q's to get them to shoot right unlike most bolt guns lol. But yeah. Some 3/4" dots at your zero range . Set up how you would in the field 3-10 shots per dot. No adjustments in between per page. If everything is right you should have a repeating trend..or in my case get shown you need more work laugh Also good for checking functional stuff and seeing what various grips bipod loadings and shoulder pressures do.

trigger knee up get off your diaphragm

and are you shooting at the bottom of the breath or trying to hold it ?


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

yup empty is empty , holding in-between changes

the ultimate test is carding the sights

5 rounds , you get your NPOA , the RO or partner then blocks your optic with a clip board , card board , anything you can't see through without touching your gun from this moment they are your eyes on target if for any reason you are not to shoot they call it , like a cow wanders in front of the target say.
you fire the 5 rounds shooting off the reset, returning to the same empty exhale each time now you see what the group/target looks like it can tell you what your body is doing find things your eyes were hiding.

I have never done this with a bipod and bag always just a sling prone but it can be very telling in that context.

try it with the 22lr first and get good at it
