Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Who is the best long range shooter on the Fire?

Love him or hate him (or love to hate him)
Burns is probably up there.

Big Stick is who I would bet on.

Not me for sure. I’m an expert at putting 2 or 3 in dang near the same hole then putting one a legit 1/2” to 1” outside that (on a good day). My opinion is that I’m OK behind the scope...just that.

Of course I have friends that act like they are Sniper level (jabbering at non ranges or work) who can’t shoot as well as I can so it all depends on the pond size! I don’t even comment about shooting or my fast toys outside of my circle because of the mouths.

My memory could be wrong but I recall years ago reading here that Burns showed up at Scenar shooters ice breaker long range shoot and won.
Don't know the details etc...
Stick was challenged and invited but he was a no show....
Oh and Flave took 1 st place with his 30/40 Krag junk gun....

Now you’ve blown up the thread!

No doubt that’s it GWB.

Look how well he’s still shooting AFTER a 1/5th and a half plus a 1/2 gallon of wine😳😂

I’d dare say that there’s few on here that have popped as many primers as he has.

LOL, If you saw the terrain you'd believe it. If I had even an ounce of brain...I'd find a cartridge that delivered a 1000 ft lbs at 50 yards and a big Christmas tree hash scope with my drops out to 60 yds in case I get the long shot of my dreams. Oh, and a Kestrel dope-o-meter for those pesky winds.
Anybody know the Coriolus effect at 50 yds?

I know one member here has won the 1000 yard Wimbledon Cup match at Camp Perry.

Well that man needs to step forward and do some bragging!

My humble opinion, Larry could give a Fugk less what anyone thinks or knows about his abilities, ie, doesn’t shoot competition because it’s not a sport to him.
Anytime I’ve had an issue and reached out to him, he was extremely helpful and wasted time he didn’t have to.
Helped solve an issue with an Anschutz that two very good smiths couldn’t figure out.

I'd take that bet. There's people on here that have won national level precision rifle competitions.

If you're putting money on the guy who has dodged any and every invite to actually back up his talk in an environment with spectators, I'll take the he field every day ending in "Y". But it would never happen, since he's demonstrated repeatedly that he won't compete.

I know it's not me. Never went distinguished shooting service rifle, and some here have.

I did win the "scuba squad" award at an event last year for wettest run in a monsoon type downpour. Hit the 500yd steel first shot, but couldn't see the 400yd target at all, and basically ended up middle of the pack. But there were obstacles and running, which helped a lot.

I did not know there were Mulies in FL, the next trip I do there will be a combo, mulie hunt, tarpon fishing, and scuba diving combo, can you recommend an outfit that can do it all?

One thing for sure, it ain’t Whelen man…

I think he went back home to patch things up with Tiffany.

Who's that? A buddy of mine won the President's 100 match back when he was AMU.

Being around real hard holding SOB's that can read the wind like it's a kids book is awesome and humbling.

Oh bullshit Jack.....







you have never had a humble opinion in your life

Roundoak

The top LR sling shooters I know are all pretty modest about their shooting. That includes one lady who has won that match multiple times.
