[QUOTE="JJMoody, post: 1701187, member: 89869"] Hmm... yeah, That does require a bit of an explanation... it really displays an incredible aptitude behind the trigger, dedication to loading, shooting and the myriad of other things that go into something of this nature. ( a fair bit of luck too!) No fancy-schmancy custom this and that. A factory barreled action on a nice foundation, a good trigger and rest, obvious prowess from the nut at the helm. I’m not a fan of the looks of a Savage action, but they really do seem to be a great rifle overall. Guess the “lol” came from the image I have in my head of this guy showing up at the firing line with (as the title says) a factory Savage 338 lapua and vortex scope. He’s obviously laughed at by the guys running $15000 setups (remember this is the image in my head, not how I envision guys at the competition) He then proceeds to shoot a 30” vertical by 4” horizontal group at 2158 yards.... not a full and adequate depiction, but it was my initial reaction. No offense meant. I maybe made a *rule 4 violation* out of myself, but that dude can freaking drive that Savage! That’s why the “LOL” anyways... Congratulations Randy! [/QUOTE]
