Amazing shooting @ St. Louis

That's a really elegant rifle and ...

bench set-up. It isn't easy to make BR guns lovely to look at.

Well done!

Maybe now Tom will come out of his shell.;)

And four hail mary's as gun was slid back to point of aim.

This goes to show you that you don't have to be a super great shooter to shoot a world record if I can do it. I have been fortunate to have two of them and I hope they stay for a long time. 10 shot UL 100 yd .097 and this one 5 shot Sp 100 yd .093 until reviewed by the committee for official measurement.

The main thing that helped me on this was listen to my wife and keep my hands off the loading process while she loaded my bullets for me. I still don't know the seating depth, she won't tell me.

It was a pleasure to attend a super well ran Nationals and Scott and his crew did a great job all week and did it with a smile, Thanks a bunch.

Ps, Cajun Man Don G. said his was more in the center of the bull than mine by .012 so his looked prettier.
