    Shooting off sticks

    A big factor is speed. Of course, it is important to train everything slowly until everything fits. However, it is essential not to neglect the time factor. Last year I only had 2-3 seconds to shoot. On oryx 180 meters, on eland 60 meters.

    Iron Sights. Yes or no?

    The only rifle i own with a scope ( Zeiss 4x32) is my Mauser 66 7x64. The other two, Winchester 70 375H&H and Mauser 98 30-06 with iron sights. As long as my eyes work, i will use them.
