Comments: Will post story soon regarding how I came about this "custom built" long-range hunting rifle, the man behind it, the long range class he teaches and ultimately the harvesting of a nice 6x6 bull elk - taken at 907 yards, 2008. All with this rifle and the "CLASS A" teaching provided by the long range expert and gunsmith Shawn Carlock, of "Defensive Edge".
