G-man Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Niece is youth hunting and i lent her my single shot henry 30-30. Problem is her cheek was way off the stock so picked up a sleeve and inserts to raise the comb so she could have proper alignment. Shot well last 3 shots... dmandoes, grampy, Robhuntandfish and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect! Once the rifle is sighted in, practice how you will hunt! Best of luck to her this season! Nomad and G-man 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always considered that shooting with a rest (no bags) since it's a table. Off-hand to me is standing with no rest. Sitting and shooting off a knee would be a rest also for me.

I used to bow hunt next to a old apple orchard that had a old Ford pickup and several other cars rotting into the ground. The Ford was the only one I could draw from while seated in the driver's seat. Shot a few does and a spike from that truck. Often wondered if I was actually breaking the law, lol.
