[QUOTE="jkupper, post: 874274, member: 61637"] I like the sitting position as well. I never shoot past 200 yards without a good rest on game animals, but I did shoot a coyote at a hair over 300 before from the sitting position. I'm a little opposite of you for the other two positions. I have given up on the kneeling position. I've never been good at it, and I just go for the sit rather than the kneel if needs be. I do practice shooting offhand though, and I am confident shooting out to 200 yards offhand. I've found that sometimes a guy needs to shoot offhand when hunting in 3 foot + tall grass. Sometimes it is impossible to get prone. I think it is possible to shoot out to 300 yards or so with these 3 positions, so long as you practice them regularly. I've seen an old timer in Rock Springs, WY make a 335 yard offhand shot. Dead Right There. My jaw about hit the ground! [/QUOTE]
