Using a sling or unsupported?

It was using a sling as per the 4p rules. Her other positions were like the tight 9 or better. I went up to Taupo on Sunday to make a quiet re entry to range shooting. Various joint problems stopped me shooting prone and kneeling so I shot 3 lots of 5 sitting and one lot standing. The first lot sitting was ropey but the second and third were better. The best shots were in about 80mm with all the sitting on an A4 which after a lay off of several years I was quite pleased. The standing, however are best forgotten. Clearly practise is required which I can do at home. The rifle is a Tikka T3x Lite with a 10 power Bushnell scope. No sling. Load 69 grain Sierra HPTBT and 25 grains of AR2206H.
