    Let him learn and increase his max safe range prone unsupported, that will give him confidence and a sense of real skill achievement. Whatever support happens to be at hand then is just a bonus...

    I read something recently that shooting using a pack as a rest always gives better results than using a bipod - I don't know how true that is though! I was always told if using something hard as a...

    Tikka are pushed very hard here by the distributors / big green chain store, so it’s more marketing than the product. Bang for your buck you can do a lot better. T3s are a bargain basement rifle...

    Shoot off a pack and a bipod, and see what works best for you. Also leaning up against a tree, on top of a fence post or wire (electric wire tried, found ...unsatisfactory, not recommended) or...

    Cheap nasty fizzy drink cans from the Warehouse make great fun reactive targets for the kids too.

    Consistency works, I rest the fore on my pack front hand is only used to steady, I don't put any pressure on the fore at all it just rests. I use this technique for all shooting techniques, whether...

    Try awkward positions. Both my daughters have shot their first deer in the last year. My youngest (13yrs) had to shoot over a rock while kneeling behind it, my oldest (15yrs) had to shoot sitting...

    There are commercial targets that are suitable for broad heads but they do ruin them pretty quickly. I have shot a target similar to your home made one with broad heads and they can be a little...

    Pete_D liked post by Bagheera On thread : what calibre for the young fella

    For my eyes for bush hunting I'd go for a euro - like older Kahles, Swaro or Zeiss 2-7 x 36 or 1.5-6 x40 (+1 for German #4 or 4a) or a Leupy VX3 2-8 x36. Most of the 1-4x or 5x or 6x "tactical"...
