I looked online but found nothing, but is there a way to self diagnose problems when shooting prone, or are there any human resources available to help teach someone that doesn't cost an arm and a limb. Or if I train enough will these problems work themselves out?
What problems are you having?
In another post/thread you mentioned using the magazine as a monopod, I'd eliminate that practice if you are going for groups.

Find out how good you are before you add adversity. Sure, prone is stable, but that's subjective. Bipod and a bag minimum are what the good shooters use, so why demand a shaky sight picture? That will discourage, not encourage more practice. Walk, then run.
Check out TC 3-22.9, specifically page E12 and E13, or page 222 and 223 on a pdf download. If you google it, you’ll find a free downloadable version. Lots of good information in there in general.
Also, as others have said, you’ll probably shoot better groups off a bag.
Also curious as to what problems you’re having OP, but this is a solid recommendation. Also, while there’s tons of junk on YouTube, Trigger Time TV is pretty solid. I think Kyle Defoor may have a video or two on probe shooting.Quote:
