[QUOTE="X-man, post: 798932, member: 8416"] I too was sort of wondering how so many folks are able to shoot so much better that the state of the art 60 pound benchrest rifles (with their 80 power scopes)? I have come to realize Bruce Baer and his buddies must not be that good? :) I have some very expensive target and tactical rifles, the best reloading equipment money can buy, and coming up on 40 years behind the trigger. I recently entered a competition that asked for 5-5 shot groups under 1/2 MOA at 100 yards. I grabbed my heavy 300Win and graduated that club (on my first try). I was then promoted and challenged to do the same at 300 yards. Let me tell you...5-5 shot groups at 1/2 MOA @ 300 yards is a real challenge for me! Most guys were folding under pressure and blew it on the 4th or 5th group. I made it on my third try, but feel lucky to have done so. Some of my groups were are the verge. I have not been able to meet that challenge at 600 yards, but I will see what I can do with my 18 pound 6mmbr....If there is a combination that can do it for me, this is it! Wish me luck! :) [/QUOTE]
