    I'll normally shoot freehand out to 50m, then sit behind tall bipod or over top of fence post for out to 110m. Other than that just brace off a tree, vehicle, window, whatever. Sometimes kneel or off knees.

    Most of the hares are shot from the quad Dougie. Well done Bill two pussy kills and not much damage from the .243 .

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.

    Nearly all shots off hand or as GM off whatever rest is avail. I also am a snap shooter, I hate to take time over a shot, probably cause most of my life's shooting has been possum,hare,rabbits, cats you don't get a lot of time, it becomes a little instinctive.

    the purpose of me taking the 243 out instead of the 22 is so I get better at the off hand shots

    Anyway once a clean shot was available with no spikey friggen tree underneath I let her have it once she walked the tight rope once again.
    Plucked her where she dropped at the gateway under the cables she was swinging off and phone lines are still ringing
