[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 133889, member: 10"] JD, Yes, its an honor system with this contest. You have to meet the following criteria: 1. Make the shot!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] 2. Provide information on rifle and load(optional I believe) 3. Must be witnessed by another registered member of the Varmint Hunters Association. 4. Have to offer what ranging method used to measure the distance. Simply put, if you wanted to you could easily make something up but with most guys on here, that is usually not the case. I have no doubt that Jesse made the shot and I congratulate him for the accomplishment which it is a great one with any rifle or load. That said, at that range, there is a good deal of luck involved even if your shooting a huge 338 AM. Even the best rifle will be lucky to hold 3/4 moa or less at that range so there is some luck involved no matter what you do. Also keep in mind that he may have easily just put one of those 210 gr Bergers through the Badgers punkin!! Does not take much if hit in the right spot. I really do not want this to turn into a session of questioning his shot. He said he made the shot and I take his word for trueth as I would home mine would be. If I had sumbitted the darn qualifying shot I made we would not even be discussing this!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Anyway, he will have to better to win the award next year!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
