[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1110886, member: 14204"] Sorry WR but the comment was meant for the OP ... I was just agreeing with you and piggy backed from your comment. :):D:rolleyes::cool: Your last sentence reminds me of one of my range time in 1992 when I was stationed in Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, AZ. I was at then Tucson Rod and Gun Club (no longer exist); fired 3-shots each for 3 rifles and packed them. While waiting for the range to clear so I can recover my targets, I was admiring the beautiful rifle the guy next to me was shooting. It was a Blaser rifle (don't remember the exact model) with some very intricate engravings on the stock and action in .30-06 topped with S&B (also don't remember the model). He seems like he was having all kinds of trouble and very frustrated. There's about 5 more minutes of shooting time when he asked me if I wanted try to shoot his rifle. Without hesitation, I obliged :D, as I try to position myself, I noticed 2 empty boxes of ammo on the ground and another half empty box on the table. As I try to acquire the target, it is clear that his grouping was all over the place. I fired 3-shots and they were ~.5-.75"" group at 100 yards. The best advice I can give him at the time was to pack it and come back another day. Unfortunately, that was the last time I ever saw him. [/QUOTE]
