[QUOTE="Boss Hoss, post: 344391, member: 5060"] It is obvious that you are one of the folks who read about shooting long distance and play on the internet boards to make those comments. Go and get some trigger time and learn about what it takes with respect to equipment, knowledge and skill. Then you will learn to keep your mouth shut before making an *** out of yourself. I am only speaking about equipment and contrary to anything you want to apply from watching movies or reading on shooting boards, physics are physics. Have shot with active and retired military shooters a few times during competitions and have never ever heard one say he wishes he had his issue rifle. In short and the truth hurts here-----you do not know what you are talking about when speaking about skills and equipment required to shoot long distance albeit it people or steel for that matter. The mental part as well as the training required to get yourself into position without being detected, stay in position without being detected, make the shot then withdraw without being detected are a different matter all together. One of the best Snipers who has ever pulled a trigger was Carlos Hathcock (I met and talked to him at the SHOT Show in Dallas in the later stages of his life when as a result of his service to this country his body was almost gone yes it was sad)----read his book and then get back to me about the hunting comment because the "Gunny" does not agree with you. This is a quote from Buffalobob when asked "do you shoot competition": "I am one of those people who do not like to practice and it is difficult for me to go and practice. Shooting competition is my form of practice. I am not very good at it but I show up and shoot my bullets and experiment with my stuff." Well sorry but seems to me that you may be one of those "all hat and no cattle folks" as we like to say in Texas. LOL Case Closed Bob. [/QUOTE]
