One manages to completely let go of the rifle due to recoil. All perfect hits at ranges out to 500+ yards.
I'm not quite sure to make of that. With out doubt it will be a very well set up rifle and as accurate as can be. However either shooting technique doesn't seem to matter or things aren't as they seem.

Bench rest shooters have bugger all contact with the rifle. Free recoil can be the most accurate way of shooting I’m pretty sure. Happy to told otherwise.

Yes but the only contact you have with the rifle doing that is with the tip of your finger on a 2-3oz trigger,

It will sit in the rests by itself indefinitely & stay on target on a decent concrete table

The wind & how you drive the rifle is the difference
