[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1565554, member: 2736"] I am happy for the guy if he did it and especially if it is repeatable. I have shot a few great groups and figured I got lucky and with a great rifle just had a good day. I competed for many years and shot many long range matches at 600 and 1000 yards and never saw a 1 inch group at 600 yards with all the master marksmen shooting. That Is tough for the unlimited bench rest crowd. But never bet anyone that It can't be done. BS is determined by several different methods. If someone does something that others cant do, they may call it BS simply because they cant do it. If someone is truthful and does something that Others say cant be done,it is not BS, it is ether skill or luck on his part. If it is Physically impossible for anyone to do and some claims to have done it (Like having a 100 yard zero and making a 500 yard shot with no hold over) because the round has NO drop. Then the BS meter pegs out. This is one of the places that I apply the old saying - Don't believe any thing you hear, and only half of what you see. I would have to question it unless I could see it first hand. So is it BS or not. I don;t know. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
