[QUOTE="TexasHunter, post: 465143, member: 26082"] I'm with Sharpsman. It's the Indian behind the arrow that matters. All these things are just tools. No matter how simplified, complicated, well packaged or pitched they are, tools don't allow any of us to make first round hits out long. Only practice does!!! And lots of it. If a barrel maker comes out with a better technology tomorrow that makes my rifles more accurate, you can bet your bottom dollar I'm going to incorporate it into my builds. Same for actions, stocks, bases, rings, slings and all the rest. And if based on a lot of experience in the field, I find a better scope, reticle, rangefinder, binoculars, pack, boots, bipod or any other tool that helps me improve my first round hit ratio, then I'm going to try it. But in trying it, I'm also practicing and that's what counts. Technology is just like the wind - it changes every minute. There's no such thing as a "point and click" solution for what we do. Ever here the old saying "Beware the man that owns but one gun, he likely knows how to use it"? Best Wishes to all. [/QUOTE]
