    I've being doing some thinking and i've come to the conclusion that i have become over reliant on bi-pods in recent years and i'm sure i was better at taking standing shots when i was 15 and didn't have a whole load fancy gagets like most of us do now.

    So i've decided to ditch the harris on the .22lr for the bunny shooting this summer and improve the off hand technique which i've let slide.

    Hopefully this won't turn out to be a depressing experience......:D But only time will tell.

    I've been doing the same recently on bunnies. I'm more confident this coming deer season being able to hit bunnies off hand @ 100(some head shots not all)
    I do believe breaking clays is great practice too.
    I can shoot running rabbits prone as a result.
