Ain't no benches in highpower either. But I'll give you we used jackets and slings and don't shoot it all off 2 legs... grins.
Always thought silhouette was just good cross training. Can teach you to shoot approach and fast as its less time per shot offhand than highpower. Though I always thought the scopes were kinda like cheating... grins.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

I tell you what it would sure be fun to see everyone in this thread show up at the Whittington center Sporting Rifle Match. Seems to me we'd figure out who is talking out their @ss and who isn't.
What a co-ink-a-dink I'm there almost every month. I share the course record with about 4 other guys since it began. Rick, Be careful what you wish for. I have seen Lil Fish shoot. There was a video where he almost hit an egg at 500yds. 3 shots and 3 close misses. It was awesome. You guys do score close misses as hits, right?????

Wait let me get my rubber boots on , I hate [bleep] between my toes I am not going to miss 100% of the time and then act like that it is awesome. Lil Fish never ever managed to hit the egg. Never ever. There's your hint. Hint.

Find out how many HM there are XC AND LR with a service rifle..... that one I can probably cover just fine.

Funny that the only guys on this thread who know anything about what they are talking about are the ones who actually shoot long range.
The people wringing their hands over Trump's rhetoric don't know what time it is in America.

I'm guessing most of us could learn a thing or two from anyone who does well at Service Rifle or matches such as the Sporting Rifle Match. Or even F-Class shooting.

all competitive shooting takes a lot of skill, well depending on if you actually try to be the best you can and win, some folks just like to have guns and go bang, and I get that too, no big deal.
But while we can chide each other, EACH sport takes its own skill set and knowledge, both by the user and the equipment they use.
Its one reason that in the off season, from your individual sport, that cross training can be not only fun but of huge help one way or the other.
I KNOW we learned a lot from all the cross training we did.

with 3 shots ? sounds like a bet I might take John gets 3 shots to hit a chicken egg at 500 yards and you're betting against him hitting the egg even once!? Name the amount you want to bet that John won't hit a chicken egg 500 yards away at least once out of three attempts; I'll gladly bet you for whatever amount you want to bet that John will hit a chicken egg at 500 yards at least once out of three tries. Just PM me with the amount you wish to wager and I'll contact John and see where and when he wants to make scrambled eggs. I'm sure you'll want to be there or have someone you trust see John make 500 yard scrambled egg.

I'd love to follow BR accuracy... but shooting 20K rounds a year, I can't afford the brass, time etc... in load prep and so on. Though we had a BR convert to SR once... was funny to watch him load thousands of rounds with the ?? Williams?? dies and an arbor press...
But we always did try to find the best accuracy we could. It sure helped with missed wind calls and oops shots...

Burns,
I enjoy your Imagination.almost as much as you do.
'Course I cain't slight you for aspiring to Imagine enough Pretend,to concoct a ruse where you were anywhere near me,nor viewed that which don't exist. Bless your heart...you poor poor stupid [bleep].
Hey,you never mentioned who you was trying to [bleep] and outta what,with your greasy Snake Oil Pretend. What the [bleep] kind of piece of [bleep] schit are trying to "sell" now?!?
Laffin'!
'lia,
What's funny,is how [bleep] clueless you are.
Shame you cain't savvy same...but that is the very crux of what oblivious humor is predicated upon.
Congratulations?!?
Laffin'!
'holton,
Shooting cleans on Chickum Eggs,is a crowd pleaser.
Seen it.(grin)
'fan,
Spent primers,remain THE Supreme Tutorial.
That most simplistic of facts,do reliably [bleep] up the Window Lickers.
Speakin' of which...where's Pouty Hunter?!? She was doing "great" too.
Laffin'!
'rost,
I enjoyed Shooting "Season". Funny schit!
Much to be said for shooting daily.
Hint.
Laffin'!
MagnumDoosh,
You poor poor clueless dumbfhukk.
Perhaps consider PM'ing SquatToPee,so as to bolster your Imagination and Pretend another notch. Though not so curiously,she's giving The Rifle as wide a berth as you. You two stupid [bleep] bolted together,couldn't run a water faucet.
Laffin'!
aalf,
Schit,that was close...here I was all set to buy a ladder,based upon single shootin' a Mouse Gun at wallpaper. Get some!
FUNNY schit!

Though we had a BR convert to SR once... was funny to watch him load thousands of rounds with the Wilson dies and an arbor press... And on the flip side, it'd be as comical as trying to compete in 1K BR with your mouse gun shooting bulk ammo loading on the Dillon. I'll all but guarantee you wrapping up last place.
