One of the best, if not THE best I've seen on this forum.

Thank you,

Just awesome! Thanks for the link. I'm going to share it with my son-in-law who is a firearms instuctor for the Michigan State Police. He will love it as his father was former career military infantry.

Still wore the uniform - and well! Still handled the Springfield - and well! Then shoots a five-inch group at a thousand yards?

It's his world, I'm just livin' in it.

By the way, what scope did they put on that Springfield, brand and power.

Regarding the modern rifle, what caliber was the old guy hitting 1K with?

Men like him made this country what it used to be. I believe we all owe it to him to make it right from here.
