I use a monopod when I hunt with my SRH with scope (handgun). I can't hold it steady enough off hand and I have practiced with the monopod. Works better than shooting sticks for me. If I have a tree for support, I would use it. With rifle, I wouldn't bother with any kind of sticks unless I'm hunting a field or very open area where long shots might be more common. Where I hunt whitetails, a very long shot would be 100 yds and 50yds or less is more common.
