    Only do 1 shot groups with hunting rifles, where the first shot goes on clean barrel means much to me, seldom shoot over 200 meters, most shots 20-40 meters.

    I do something like this but the 'dot' is halfway between the centre of the plate and the top. That is my aim point when the shots are out past the 'scope is full of animal '" rage . If it is within...

    No range here but I do have a place over the back with a big ridge where I can safely get out to 200m. Probably have to sit this one out though unless some snow melts. Only deer shot to date was...

    I disagree with bipods being a common field shot, if we look at PRS type matches they use improvised field positions to test a shooters ability to adapt. Adapt to situations that arise in the field....
