Speechless. I don't care who you are, that is some shooting, right there.


I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.

Chris, My first meeting with John was an argument about AR triggers. Almost got heated. I realized that maybe with him being in the business, he probably knew more than I. John has done a lot of work for me including building 3 uppers for myself and Sons. I have found shooting supplies for him and got them in his hands. We also share a love for certain older rifles.
His AR's are very accurate.

The entire string would have missed a man�s torso at that range, tho. What�s needed is a way to get men to stand around while we fire spotter shots at them. :-)

Everyone is upset because I scored that first target as an 80-0x. That is what it was...if you are only shooing for a group and not a score...why use a regular High Power target....just paint a dot on paper, aim for that.


Guess I missed this. They don't paint a dot for an aim point because you must go by the rules which are available on line. Once you read & understand those you'll understand they shoot for both group & score. It's all really quite simple.
