Best option for long range hunting stability

Hoping you guys can help me out here. I’m primarily a deer hunter, and most of my land consists of large agricultural fields. My setups are usually tall shooting houses, anywhere from 15-20 feet tall. That height is necessary in my terrain to be able to see a good distance. My shots are mid to long range, mostly anywhere from 200-800 yards. Looking for a good stable platform for those longer shots. Our stands have small shelves built around them about 12 inches deep. I’ve used cheap front and rear bags in the past, and it gets me by but there have to be better options. The shelves are too high to be able to use a bipod. Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
You don't. You balance off the bag just like PRS competitors do off a prop. If you are on a tripod- you lock your rifle in and don't need rear support. If you don't know how to do any of that- put a bag up front on the shelf/window sill and use the tripod for your rear support.

Game changer bag or arca on a tripod if you’ve got the room. With the right tripod you can go from standing to almost prone. Sitting is crazy stable.
