[QUOTE="rifletuner, post: 1094027, member: 26"] I agree the guys in Pennsylvania behind the Williamsport club were early influencers on the development of long range shooting, and many of the members were very hard core long range hunters. I think we also need to credit Kenny Jarret and his "beanfield rifles". I saw a number of articles in the press through the 1990s with Kenny advocating for long range hunting. And this was back in the days of a shooting media that was generally very hostile to LRH. Kenny was prepared to go on record and buck the "conventional wisdom" of the day. And the beanfield rifle was really the forerunner to the Rem Sendaro line. There were a number of early voices in Precision Shooter mag in the 1980s and 1990s . Probably the best of these was from Dan Lilja, and those articles are still available on his web site:[url=http://riflebarrels.com/long-range-shooting-hunting/]Long Range Shooting & Hunting - Lilja[/url] and these are still worth a read today.
