It's not so much the rules that Pinhooker is talking about, it's the fact that there are so many people shooting perfect to near perfect scores continually without all the fancy parts. Put whatever grip suits you the best, but remember that you shouldn't be gripping so tight anyway. Look up No Pulse Sling and go from there. I hated continually reconfiguring my leather Turner Saddlery sling between rounds to do this. Now they use Biothane which is like a vehicles serpentine belt and will not stretch out like leather. You can configure it and leave the cuff clamped around your bicep and ready to connect to the front swivel only. Rock solid. In fact you need to force the rifle into position. All this works great if you are using a shooting jacket and glove.
Barrel, trigger, free float tube, and NM sights, proper ammo, and good repetitious skill is the formula.
