i took my 375 H&H to my normal range to get ready for some bear hunting I plan to do next sunday. first I shot the rifle over the chronograph to check my velocity (2520 +/- 20 fps). next I set my rifle up on the lead sled and got it to shoot about 2 inches high at 100 yards with groups about one inch in diameter. then came time to practice a little off the tripod... I did AWFUL! I think my best group was 8 inches with 3 shots, I could not steady the rifle to save my life! I tried 3 different stances that were recommended on this forum and nothing helped me. with my scope set to 6x it just bobbed all over the target without me being able to control it at all.
I don't think ive ever been more ashamed of my shooting then I was today. im currently rethinking my bear hunt. if I cant hit a 4" target consistently off sticks at 100 yards next Saturday then I will call the trip off. (im not going to wound an animal pointlessly)
