[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 559805, member: 25383"] kinda reminds me of a late friend of mine named Ralph Tolliver. He was a Gunney sargent in the crotch, and later joined the Army Reserves. Brings in these big targets in one day (I'd say 2.5' x 4' with funny looking triangles on them. He was shooting a national match M14 rifle with national match peep sights in 7.62 Nato. His groups were around six to seven inches (five shots). I thought hey anybody could do better than that till he said 1000 meters! He then sat down and asked me about reloading equipment (he had an unlimited budgit thanks to Uncle sam). He buys a Forster press and their N.M. .308 dies pluss a bunch of other toys. Brings me in several sub six inch targets, and one that was a little bigger than five inches using L.C. cases and the Army spec'd bullet. Ralph ended up being the Army service rifle shooting champion one year for Reserves. When you think you are the best shot out there, then install a set of peep sights and see what happens. I have more than one friend that shoot BPMCR at 1000 yards and shoot that good with open sights gary [/QUOTE]
