Never said they would win Majors with off the rack clubs. Especially when competing with others with like talent. If they entered any City Championship with clubs off of the rack, they'd kick ass because of the differential in natural talent of the field.

The guys referenced were just off the top of my head examples

Guys win Championships shooting factory ammo all of the time. In fact, only factory ammo is allowed at any major shotgun competition. All of Digweed's wins are with factory ammo. Many win rifle matches with factory ammo as well.

Every shooter on this page shoots factory ammo and wins
http://www.hornady.com/team-hornady/sponsored-shooters

A shooting buddy of mine shoots factory Creedmoor ammo and has won the Sniper's Hide Cup with it.

Your scores will improve no matter what you are shooting simply because you will improve. Can I or any of the top shooters go out with a functioning lightweight rig with known drop data and beat most people who enter? Yes

Can I or anyone go to Raton and shoot 50 or better guaranteed?

No one including me would take that bet even shooting a custom match rifle.

The fact is, and I'm sure you'll say I'm bragging or talking "schidt", that I started with a factory rifle not even close to as good as the RAR you took, with a scope that has a duplex reticle, shooting a bullet with a BC of .319 and shot 35 at the first shoot I attended.

I took it back out for fun at the end of the year and shot 45 with it. It was a top 10 finish

I guess you owe me $1500

Maybe I can drive as far as CO, then jump into Tanner's VW Bug.

I'll gladly pay the $1500 for the Ric RAR... I WANT to pay for that rifle.... seriously. But.... you gotta put it together.... then put it where your Braggadocios mouth is. Please.... pretty please.... I'd LOVE to see it.

You can't answer a single direct question, but you tap-dance around them like Ricky Davis, Jr.

Bring your lightweight gun..... build a Sub-$K gun and shoot it.... or STFU.... that's it. No need to keep flapping your gluten-free pie hole on the matter. We all know you're the baddest dude on the planet with a rifle... you've told us a number of times.... and we've all seen the yardage marked kills. I'd just like to see your badassness with an actual hunting rifle... that's all.

Dogshooter,

Why do you care!? If you don't respect the guy ignore him. Most us don't know if you two are the same guy playing good cop bad cop.

I'm the bad cop..... and I believe in Sparta. It's my thread..... you could ignore the whole thing.

Ric has talked a lot of schitt on this post.... I, for one, would love to see it.... and I'm willing to put dough up to see it get done.

Dog, I'd like to be shooting with you and my POS rifle and scope. It cost less than a 1000.00. I'm not sure I could handle Digweed, I'd be laughing too much. But seriously, If Digweed makes it down, I'll gladly buy his a$$ a coldy!!!

Either way I don't care. I just want to shoot and have fun.

Hope to see you guys there.

Pretty sure I'm Digweed..... I think it's Gaelic for "he who can't stand hypocracy"....

Bring that rifle, we'll have fun.... Ric is a actually a pretty awesome guy to shoot with. He knows the course, knows how to shoot it, and really is a nice dude. It'll be cool to see how well a seasoned vet can run it with an 8lb gun.... though I'm pretty certain the results will be a little different than he thinks.

The course will give you a pretty good idea of the kind of shots you should be able to make in a hunting situation (if you shoot it with your hunting gear)..... it'll tell you if your equipment is up to par.... it'll tell you if your dope is good.... and it will give you a good report card on places to emphasis when practicing on the future. Though..... I don't think a Sporter Rifle will ever be able to hang with a Sporting Rifle of the course of the entire day.

I've come to the simple conclusion that I'd WAY rather shoot a 40 with an actual hunting rifle..... than clean the course with a game gun.... any day. I have tremendous respect for guys that can hit stuff consistently way out there with hunting rigs..... not so much for the game gun guys....

We'll get loaded the night before.

It will add to the realism of big game hunting.

So, how do you practice? Fire a single round, then go home and do it all over again tomorrow?
