[QUOTE="Karl in Phoenix, post: 55929, member: 1973"] Another way you might concider steadying your shots is to employ a set of shooting sticks. The buffolo hunters of the past used them to good effect for long range, accurate animal shooting (maybe you could, too). With a rifle sling and shooting sticks, you will find you will be very steady, indeed. Be sure to check your point of impact, as it may shift from no sling to sling or sling w/shooting sticks. The shift in bullet impact will not be very great, if at all, at short range but at "long range" you may notice a change. Hope this helps. By the way, I still have and use the shooting sticks I made for myself while at Quantico, VA, for the Marine Corps Scout/Sniper Instructor School (1979). [/QUOTE]
