OK, here's the new rig. ruger american predator ($380), vortex variable off one of my AR's ($250). If I can outshoot just ONE of the guys with a custom, GAP, or any dedicated long ranger that cost more than $1000, it'll just make my day..... after paint... (the paint is my secret weapon...) Actually, it ain't for the comp. I just wanted a beater for the tractor and quad to plink coyotes at longer range than my 204.......grin

Oldslowdog Campfire Regular Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 1,871 Wyoming	Originally Posted by scenarshooter Saturday evening was incredible.....four of us hard cores stayed, and shot until dark. We had quite a shoot out! That it was. Right before sundown, the sun got to the perfect angle to enable you to watch the glint of the copper bullets as they flew downrange and hit the targets. It stayed that way for almost 5 minutes. That was really awesome to see! Thanks again, Pat, for putting it on. Great meeting all you guys!
