I find it quite amusing that we recommend to all new guns that they spend a small fortune on some exotic glass for the top of their gun and under take an allmost spiritual process when it comes to cleaning which borders on OCD all in the name of accuracy , but when it comes to the very thing we rest our guns on for a steady shot it seems that some garden canes bound together with brown paper and string seems to be the norm!
I some time back invested a bit of money ( about £100 I seem to remember) in a decent set of sticks - a tripod setup from Bogpod . They are brilliantly stable and due to having a pivoting head allow you track a target on the sticks. I regularly range shoot of these sticks and have happily taken long shots off them - yet I regularly hear people saying that they would not take shots of sticks further than 80m - is this because home made sticks are - how should I put this tactfully - thinking - on well - shite?
