Never underestimate Americans appetite for mediocrity!
MANY of the groups I see shot at the range literally would be touch and go at 200 and definitely 300 yards.
Speaking of 7 RMs...the last one I saw personally was a guy shooting at the bench next to me a couple of seasons ago before hunting season. Wood stocked rifle (Ruger, IIRC) with a low end Bushnell 3-9. He is resting the BARREL directly on three pieces of carpet covered 2x4 pieces to 'sight in'. NO hearing protection. I carry extra muffs and earplugs and offer them to him, but he says,no thanks, it doesn't bother him...
He shot a whole box of Rem factory. I leave the results to your imagination....
(BTW, this is no way a condemnation of the cartridge)
It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...
Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.
