do sling-shooting techniques change POI much on 22lr sportster?
« on: February 24, 2014, 12:59:50 PM »
I recently bought a new Sportster 22lr. It has a standard barrel (not a heavy barrel). When shooting, I sometimes like to use the hasty sling technique for added stability. However, I know this changes the POI on some guns due to barrel flexing. Can anyone tell me whether POI changes much on Sportsters when shooting with slings?

(I would test it out myself, but I'll need the weather to improve first.)

Sorry to say, but there is only one way to tell what your rifle will do.
