[QUOTE="green 788, post: 94913, member: 3781"] I understand what you're saying... but to clarify, that's more than one good group. It's the light gun six target aggregate. So the rifle is obviously consistent. I think it's important to learn from guys who "go against the grain" so to speak. There are countless examples of guys who sort of march to a different drum, who then, by their success, lead everyone else to knowledge. I'm not saying that neck turning isn't ever necessary. I'm just saying that Schatz is a good example of a guy to does things differently, and wins. There was a road race car in the late 50's, early 60's which was known as "Old Yeller II". It was basically a collection of parts from other cars, and the designer had about 1/10th the money invested in it than the British sports car afficianados had in their Jags, MG's, etc. Old Yeller II beat every car on the track, and he did so very consistently. He broke all the conventional rules of what you "had to do to win," and the British and European designers had to take note and respond to the success of "The Junkyard Dog" as Old Yeller II was affectionately known. They learned a few things from one old guy in a tiny garage out in California. None of this is to say that neck turning will go out of fashion in BR circles. But then again, if guys like Schatz continue to win, it just [i]may[/i]. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Dan [/QUOTE]
