[QUOTE="Idaho Lefty, post: 2299160, member: 104437"] @ Blacklab,.. I use, the wood, Hunters Specialties "sticks" and quickly take off my Rifle and Pack and get in, the sitting position on, a sidehill, then, I "prop up" the Rifles "Toe" with my Pack, that's sitting on my Chest, using some upward pressure from, my Knee, against the Pack, to hold the back end ( toe) of, the Rifle, steady. This method, takes a bit of practice, but now, I can hit, 11" Dia. Steel Plates EVERYTIME at, 350 - 375 Yards. I use a Kifaru "Gun Bearer" to carry Rifle, strapped to my EXO Pack thats "Stuffed" with extra Jacket, napping Pad, Lunch, Shirts, Kill Kit, etc. and use a piece of coiled up ( Taped round about, 6 to 7 inches tall ) Foam Pad for, a "Toe Rest" when shooting Prone, over, the Pack. Holding, the Rifles "Toe", STEADY is,.. "everything" ! Removing your Rifle, Pack, sitting down, positioning Pack on Chest, Ranging the Animal, catching your Breath and getting STEADY, takes about One Minute or so, after practicing, a few times. Try it out, IT,.."Works" for, us ! Son and I, shot Two Elk, using this, method. Good luck ! Your Rifles POI now, at 2,000 Feet, will be, MUCH HIGHER at,.. 8 to 10,000 Feet Elev.,.. don't forget to, adjust for, Altitude ! [/QUOTE]
