Everytime I fire my rifle, the recoil is up and to the right. From a slow fire perspective, it really doesn't bother me. I just re-adjust and let rip. However, I see some guys that are right back on target after each shot. Is that just experience on their part or am I doing something wrong?
Do recoil characteristics tell you anything?

You're losing position. How tight are you slung up? Your position should be so solid that if someone came along and pushed you, a solid position should bring you back to natural point of aim.

Sorry, should have mentioned I am shooting from prone. No sling.

Why? Are they illegal for the competition?
Are you shooting off a pack or bipod? If you're off the bipod when do a search on pre-loading the bipod. Use this search engine instead of the one here.

If you're shooting off a pack, try a bipod. If you have to use a pack then there are some things you can do with respect to control using your free hand but I'll defer to those that are more experienced.

You should look at joining the online training, it costs, but in a week or two I have been on there, it has dramatically increased my shooting.

Make sure you're pulling the rifle tight into your shoulder, that will help with recoil management.
