Funny thing is, I've seen little in the way of evidence about LR guys actually practicing more than normal range guys, despite the claims to the contrary. whistle



Another funny thing is that there are guys with little or no long range experience who actually think the garbage you just posted is true.

When you don't know how it's done, the above just has to be true, right? I mean, it's impossible stuff to be able to deliver a bullet with that kind of precision with all of the variables involved at the ranges those dudes talk about. It's more luck than anything, right?

Get a grip.

You ought to start a thread asking for long range hunter's/shooter's truths. How many have they wounded and at what range? How much shooting do they actually do and ask them prove it with some type of verifiable data like piles of spent brass and primers. How often do they wear out a barrel? Maybe even ask them to show you their results from long range competition and how many competitions have they attended. How frequently do they do so?

You may actually learn something about it and have to stop making [bleep] up.
