I’ll be practicing and working toward this over the summer. Might only get out a handful of times.
I just found my optimal charge weight this past weekend so time to load and practice until Sep 17

Consistent offhand (like every discipline) requires a unique skill set ... and a lot of practice. My hat is off to those that can pull this one together.

I practice. bench loose bags. Bipod with chair and free hand. Because that’s what I use while hunting.
I’m pretty sure I can do it with three shots.

That looks like some pretty darn credible offhand shooting to me. What cartridge and rifle were you using?
