In the video you "shuffle" a lot between shots, would it be better to get and check your position once if you can and then shoot the whole course? I'm not trying to be a smart-arse (I know from your other video's you're capable of very good marksmanship) so if you're doing things deliberately I'd like to know.

    Yeah to be honest the recoil is why the groups are not great.

    After one shot the rifle recoils and slides too far down the rear bag because of the slanted underside... if I simply slid the rifle forward there will not be enough pressure vertically on the rear bag and if I took the shot it will undoubtedly hit high.

    The more recoil your dealing with the more crucial your pressure and body/rifle connection becomes (in my experience)
