I don't remember if they reduced gun wobble on deployable towers, but a tower is always good for long shots as it adds to the height difference. ;)

Reduced (read: almost none) wobble for tripods and deployable towers.

If I shoot from a tower (standing), the wobble is less than when lying prone on the ground with the same weapon.
I love it.

Thanks for the info. Had to try it today and it is amazing. Standing upright and the movement of the .243 (level 10) was almost locked. :)

Good you put a deployable tower or a tripod on the red circle where you stand and get some more altitude? I know Intimidator has some insane bowshots. And ron, your tip for the long range is because the arrow kills an animal no matter what eventually. :D Anyway, with the 45-70 I wonder if it is possible to get one in 1 shot. That is some massive power with that gun ;)

At level 16 my bulpup is pretty close to locked even if looking at 350m.

is my strategy good? Use 45-70 on bears and put up a tripod on the shooting spot at VDB?

FYI: Animal Render Distance now appears to have been changed to 300m instead of 220m as depicted in the illustration of Figure 1
