    You need a steady rest and good trigger control to evaluate your loads. The stock AR trigger might be more of an issue than your loads.

      Thanks for the tips guys. I'll go research a rest for my next trip.

        I like using a sand sock on the rear. The adjustability suits me.

          Sandbags front, small sandbag rear, or sand sock squeezed by weak hand as mentioned above. I also like bipods front as they control rifle cant very well.

          Once you control the rifle, the trigger is the next hurdle, a lousy trigger as also noted above can be a huge hurdle to overcome.

          Some of the best group shooting I have done with an AR was with bipod up front and just my weak hand fist under the pistol grip controlling rear elevation.
