    If you want to do standing you'll have to shoot off hand or make a set of shooting sticks which are easy to make using a set of green garden sticks from woodies or B&Q etc..

    Id go for a harris 9-13 or 13-23 if you want to take kneeling shots but you'll find some prone shots on 13 that you have to life your head up a lot.

    I have a bipod for sale thats perfect for ya, it works very well shooting whilst sitting. Depending on what part of Tipp your in we might not be too far from each other!

    hi there,im just getting my first hmr too,i went for a cz 455 thumbhole 16 inch barrel,i believe its an accurate gun,i done a lot of research before i decided,i believe one cant go wrong with a cz,but there are other more expensive models,im happy with my choice;)

    Cz is definitely the best bang for your buck.
