[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1913923, member: 109113"] You're right - I didn't mean to imply that I thought I would learn more from reading a forum than from getting out there and doing it. I'm surprised that you took it that way. My point is that I can save myself a lot of wasted time by reading how guys with good solid experience are doing it before I waste a bunch of time doing something that isn't going to bear fruit for me. Book-learning is only good to a point. Going hands-on is where the understanding comes from, not to mention where the fun is. I've known this for a very long time. I also know that I don't want to start shooting at 1000 yards until I have figured out a lot more about shooting at 500. I'm also in the PDX area ( Vancouver ) and I wonder how I could get in touch with some of the local shooters you mention here. Also, where is GPNF ? I know where Yaccolt is, but have not heard of the Yaccolt Burn. Any help you have would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
