Summary

Good buddy, and ok shooter, Jon Pynch is back on this week to talk about guns and share some of his recent experiences hunting stone sheep. All joking aside, Jon is more than just one hell of a shot. Jon is a very accomplished competitive distance shooter, though you would have to about torture him to get it out of him. Needless to say, I was happy to have Jon on to chat about some popular questions around gun prep and caliber selection. Through competition, Jon shoots a bulk of his shots from various obscure resting positions and we cover some tips for making a good rest in the field. We also talk off-hand shooting and the importance of practicing your off-hand shots.
