90 yards......thats awesome! Maybe Burns should use this as an avatar. Big deal... I think I could do that at 90 yards with a Remington 700... and a Tasco scope! John Burns might just do that -- he clearly has a set of balls and a good sense of humour! John

Only thang that would make it better is if he was sitting back a ways with an outstretched arm trying to make it long better via the old much used long arm photo...grin

Having a little fun. Nicely done!
I saw a movie where only the military and the police had guns. It was called Schindler's List.

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Those pics just made me hurt a rib, someone will be hearing from my lawyer.
Congrats to JBurns that is fine shooting at 1790 in gusty wind. I still think that the system is overpriced for the components, but only if you know how to do it yourself, otherwise you have to pay for the skills you do not possess. There are great smiths out there who will build you a comparable rifle with a similar optic cheaper, but that is not going to get you ringing the long steel without some other knowledge. It looks like a good system to get someone started. IMO John showed balls just showing up. Luckily his equipment worked like a champ or this thread would already be 60 pages.
I really wanted to go to Montana and am jealous as hell of those that were able to go.
Rost, nice collection of awards, for the record I never doubted your prowess for a minute.

Like i said, I admire the fact that he can walk the walk...
He put his wares on the line and apparently he and his equip. work as advertised.
Gotta respect that.....

Too true, John. Thanks for the well wishes. Birthday was actually yesterday. Time zones and all-it still shows here.

Hmm. Seem like a damn fine system for getting finished also. All you had to do was head north and you would have been there in no time at all. That is what I did and what everyone else did who showed. If it seems like I might be being a little hard on you perhaps your silly condescending attitude is beginning to wear a little thin with me. For a guy with very few actual LR kills you always seem to want to act the expert.

That's a good one John. If I was saying the same stuff you do, you'd have a point, and you could talk about the kettle and the pot.
I've always found eddybo to be knowledgeable, helpful, and for a guy who knows a whole lot more than me, not condescending in the least.
