I just resent them. Four different emails, one for each video to avoid the zip file.

I tried to resend the big bore videos to Jeffeosso but they came back saying that they were to big for his IP (5 K) to handle. They are about 530 K each. Does anyone know how to post a WMV to the forum that I could email the video to? bewildered They truely are big bore experiences!

olcrip,why don't you try to post them yourself.Here is how to go about it. First,transfer the video from your camera or cell phone to your computer.You may need software if it's from your video cam.Once you transfer it to your computer(save it in your video files),you need to transfer it to a host site like photo bucket(upload video).Once you get it on photo bucket,then you can post it on here,by pressing the URL feature above and then copying the entire URL from photobucket in the space provided by the URL feature.

Why Don't I just email the WMVs to you shootaway and you can post them? I don't really have the time to mess with setting up a photo bucket acct and going through all that mess. Send me your email and I'll send them to you.

Here is a 4 shot, 100 yard group I shot off the bench today. The rifle is holding its zero perfectly.The group is large,but that's ok.The second target is the one I shot offhand at 100yds.I was happy with the group size and quick shooting.I used Woodleighs and aframes for the offhand shooting.[URL= ]100yds bench[/URL] [URL= ]100yds offhand[/URL]

Did you miss that target off the bench with one of the shots?


Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too!

Recent college grad, started a company called MK Machining where I'm developing a bullpup rifle chassis system.

Hi Tyler! You can see a bit of the hole, of the fourth shot, at 12 o'clock, just outside the orange circle(under the word"the").

I would like to bring up the subject of SIGHT PICTURE. If your like me,you'll see the target at 100 and 200yds as something other than a clear,round bullseye.I rarely see a focused picture of the target,unless I am using my 308 with the scope.What I usulally see is an fuzzy picture of two or three round targets and choosing which one to shoot at,determines were my shot will hit.

If that is,for whatever reason, what a certain rifle is capable of shooting,yes.

shootawry,
I was shooting better than you, long before you were a bite of ham sandwich in your fathers mouth. Oink, oink.

When I was 8 years old, even if I had been drunk at the time, I could have zeroed the centers of your hat-sized groups, offhand with open sights, at any range.

If you cannot see the target clearly, you better lay off the booze.

The varieties of cartridges are like the varieties of beautiful women.

Seriously, are you quoting the right targets? A 6" group off hand @100yds with a Lott isn't awesome but will get'er done on anything and shows skills. A 6" benchrest grouping is a clusterF#$% Eeker that shows no regard whatsoever of proper big bore form/shooting technique. killpc donttroll popcorn space


There are those that do, those that dream, and those that only read about it and then post their "expertise" on AR!

470 AR -- 100 yards, 1.75x5 leupold, from the bench, and this gun has hundreds of rounds down it.



this target speaks for itself.. and it was just FIREFORMING


416 AR - SPECTACULAR group, on a wet, rainy, windy day.

You guys are coming down really hard on shootaway. It's obvious that he doesn't have the money (cents) he was born with. He's trying and that speaks volumes. space He may not be the most astute or the sharpest tool in the shed but he's a shooter, maybe a poor one but he's still one of us. What shootaway really needs is to have someone in his area to show him the ropes. Teach him what is acceptable and what is liable to get him stomped into toe jam. I believe his heart is in the right place but his eye sight shocker and sights are in the dugout.

My suggestion to you shootaway is to put the big bore BOOM down for a spell and sharpen your shooting skills from the bench and off hand with a smaller caliber archer and work your way up with a new found confidence.

Never say die, just come at them from a different direction. sofa

I expect he's baiting us, and he's not a newbie jackhole... he's a professional.

we tried giving him gentle suggestions, and then he decided he knew more about bigbores than Rob, Rip, and I, TOGETHER, and became insulting.

Flincie, or shoo-thataway, is no fool, at least he believes.

"shooter like us" .. hardly .. a shooter, perhaps, but flincie AINT like us... heh, no one else on this board does a 1 ring mount on a 458 winmag, wears a skidoo helmut to shoot with, grotesquely overloads their cases, AND jacks off their gun with JB paste, rather than CLEAN it.. and then tells everyone to go get stuffed, as he knows best.

What can I say? The softer side of me was reaching out to -----. Can't say much when I have a mouth full of CROW. Oh well, I felt for the fool but forgot all the KAKA he spit out. I still feel sorry for the guy because he is a fool and honestly I don't think he realizes that he is a fool. space He's still looking for the whet stone to sharpen his dull tool.

I really think he should give up big bores for a spell, maybe a good long spell and try to learn some shooting technique with a 222 Remington.
