Not what I said at all. I'm saying that guys chase that newest and best stuff thinking it'll make them a better shooter when in reality they just need to hone their craft.

You sound a lot like my boss.
Have to spend money, to make money when running a ranch. A computer figures out the proper ratio to spread the fertilizer evenly, and that can easily save hundreds of thousands of dollars per year.
The world has changed, and keeps changing year after year. What was top notch in the year 1950, 1975, 2000, or even 2015, maybe not be nearly as good as what is out there now in 2023.

Absolutely true, but a decent rifle, scope, ammunition, range finder, etc also helps.
I like a good mixture of modern high end gear, and lots of practice. I did a lot of reading, talking to people, and trying different rifles, before deciding to buy a 7mm prc. It may not be much better than a 7mm mag. But lets just say for the sake of argument that it's 1% better, then why not go for it instead.

you're in the yard sale figures now, $4.95. And that was in the 80 s. lolWhat is the best scope possible to buy for under $4.95 Canadian, taxes can be extra
Sorry, and I couldn't agree more.
$100K 1/2 MOA rifle?
Does anyone have a HUNTING rifle that they'd honestly bet $100K that they can lay down, on demand, and shoot a sub 1/2 MOA, 5 shot group with? I was thinking about it, and I really don't think I do. Even with a couple nice rifles that have produced much smaller than 1/2 MOA groups on occasion...
Spoiler alert no takers...

My 500 smith shoots 1/2 inch one shot groups all day long if I do my part, it can even shoot 5 one shot 1/2 inch groups... if I do my part of course...

Make the stakes high enough and no one will even try. The stakes skewed the data. That would be like me saying, do this difficult task 100% right or lose your house. Who would care enough about proving that point that they'd risk their house. It goes to show that most people here have more sense than they do money and that's a good thing. That logical fallacy of a thread proves absolutely nothing at all and to try and use it as evidence is even more concerning.$100K 1/2 MOA rifle?

So if I take a video of a guy shooting 0.5 inch group at 100 yards for 5 shots in a row, they are going to pay us $100,000.
Who is this mysterious person, and do they have the $100,000, and ready to pay up?

Bringing this back up.
Does anyone know who the wealthy person is offering $100k per shooter that can do this?
On a calm day, good rifle and glass, this is doable.
