[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 2745596, member: 67552"] With all due respect, the OP is about baseline accuracy off a bench. It is a good idea to get practice in all those positions and conditions, but that is exactly why you need your baseline accuracy. If you know what your gun does with you behind it, then you can make a decision on taking a shot or not with the distance and conditions presented. It may come as a shock to some, but many folks on this site have hunted across the west even in mountains and deserts, and some of those folks harvested game. I have seen some of them, and they and their 'systems' are pretty wonderful. Some days are 200 yard days even with a 1/4 minute gun, and there are days when the wind cooperates. I get it, by your last sentence your just trolling a bit, but dang. It's not like the folks on this site are standing at the Wally World gun counter asking the kid behind the counter for first rifle buying advice. last point, why on earth would you drag steel plates all over the mountains to shoot? There are 10" rocks or spots on rocks literally everywhere. Practice is more fun if your not humpin steel up and down the hill and vale. [/QUOTE]
