yes sir I believe it was.....he (Tussock)took it in the jest it was intended and replied in same manner.....which you would see/know if you bothered to look/read first..... he (Tussock ) knew to which I was refering...thus he was able to quote it...... case closed.
When prone I prefer #3. Works for me and I seem to shoot straight enough. As an example, if a shooter is comfortable with #3 but uncomfortable with #1 or #2 then I know which one will be more accurate for them. I reckon repeatability and the application of marksmanship principles using a system that works for an individual is most important.
This is an interesting thread, but it’s like discussing religion or 1080 - everyone has strong views and talking about it is unlikely to change opinions.
If you were to practice 2 or 3 prone then what are you going to do when presented with a standing shot or sitting across knees shot ? If practiced in fore end hold then that will be the automatic default for everything and the field results will on average be better IMO
Agree that you have too be comfortable shooting in different positions and important to know the nuances of your rifle in those. 1 & 3 for me. Larger calls and light weights are 1s.
