I believe you, Scenar.

I once saw a guy shoot 17 rounds at an antelope in Wyoming one time and thought that had to be some sort of record. But your guy's in another league.

It wasn't until me and a buddy were unfortunate enough to share a caribou drop camp with two French Canadians that I heard/saw the best. Over 20 ( I lost count) .270 rounds fired at a caribou at over 900 yards. All misses, some spectacularly so. He even had his buddy loading his clips for him.

It looked more like he was taking a beachhead than a caribou.

Would you like to know what he was shooting?

Was it a custom built precision rifle shooting handloads with a $3000 dollar scope on top?

Nope.

It was a Remington 740 Woodsmaster with a Tasco scope mounted on see-through rings 2" above the bore. He was shooting greenbox Remington factory ammo.

My buddy and I just shook our heads in disbelief......

I'd have paid money to watch that hunt Scenar's talking about.

Puts my stories to shame.
