[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1216603, member: 70559"] Outdoor Life is nothing more than a paid prostitute for products. I and another guy shot shot a Kimber .22 singleshot with a 36X Leupold for a gun writer. The rifle alone cost $1,200 back then. The best I could do with about a dozen brands of ammo, including a few target brands, was about 1 3/8" on the 50 yard target. When the article came out I thought the other guy did some mighty fine shooting. The article had groups like .375", .400", .470", etc. He thought I did all the good shooting so I asked the author about it. He said, and I quote because I will never forget it, "I must have left off the 1". Well I owed him a favor anyway." I wrote an article many years ago about a 7mm-.300 Weatherby. The editor had me shooting groups with bullets I never heard of. Since then I don't believe any of the articles in any of the magazines; with the exception of Varmint Hunter and Precision Shooting. But then, both of them are gone. [/QUOTE]
