    Thanks, like most things, I've done most bipod practice with a .22 and can generally do a 5 shot clover leaf at 50 metres. This hasn't translated to centrefire for me, so think recoil management is the issue.

    I actually found I shot centerfire better when I first started out.
    After shooting 99-100% rimfire only for a few years I developed a bu ch of bad habits that messed up my centrefire shooting (particularly recoil management).

    The Snipershide videos about fundamentals and NPA are a good starting point.
    You can also do dry fire practice in the hallway to practice things before getting to the range.
    Obviously take appropriate safety precautions before dry fire practice indoors.
