Last Tuesday I went to the range with my CVA Wolf to be sure it was ready for deer season. I didn't shoot anything spectacular but adequate for harvesting a deer out to 100 yards.
While I was sighting it in I took a few shots OFFHAND at 100 yards just to see what I could do. It would be interesting to see what you guys can do offhand at 100 yards. My first 2 shots were with 110 grains Pyrodex Select and the second 2 were with 85 grains of the same powder. I was shooting a 240 grain, .45 caliber XTP in a .50 caliber Thompson Center sabot. The primer was a regular CCI 209.

I didn't realize posting what gun shot the group was an advertisement. I guess the OP was advertising too according to your post or maybe you are just trying to start an argument again.
BTW i missed your off hand group pic.

hey thats a good post because thats all i ever did on MM and they banned me for doing that, but i guess it finally caught up with them, along with abusing their members and running them off.

Since I can use a scope and sabots for hunting I dont shoot off hand. I only take a solid rest when shooting or I'll pass on the shot. I want the best shot with no if's about it, as far back as I can remember all my harvested deer have been lung or heart shot.
Now I will take a off hand shot if it's less than 50 yds and I am sighted in for it with my open sights, but that's usually only if my scope is fogged or full of snow. I had some targets but I cleaned up a bunch of stuff on my computer recently and deleted a-lot and they went with them. I'll ge out in the next few weeks after harvest season (what little there'll be of it) and post some targets.
