We often hear back from guys bragging they can shoot better than our test shooter. In his defense, he's got a bunch of rifles to shoot daily, regardless of weather, hustling rifles back and forth without putting a scratch on 'em.

Here's the deal - make a copy of your target, then shoot a better group on the unshot side of your copy, with factory or handloads (don't matter), then post a pic in this thread, and I'll have our laser dept. whip you up a Special Edition Recognition Dillo ...

In! This is awesome

ETA: it barely does it, but like vin diesel says "it doesn't matter if it's by a thounsandth of an inch or a quarter mile, winnings winning" paraphrased of course. The pasty is because I'm using a 1.5-5 Mark 4. Test target is .897 and I shot. .850. I have shot so much better before but it is what it is. I decided I wasn't going to make any copies... This is the original. If I can't out shoot him every time I dont deserve the W. 100 yds, 77F, 1191' elv, 69gr FGMM.

Here are a couple more. I have two other rifles with test targets, field grade barrel on a fourth, and here are the results of the two with test tgts.

The top target is 18" OBR. The test target was a 5 shot group so my group is 5 shots as well. Test Target Larue Shootist .773 5 shots 168 FGMM, my target .430 handloaded 175g Berger.

The second rifle is a 14.5" tOBR. I added a dot because I am using an 8 power scope and can't see the dang target square without it but I appreciate the ribbing sir

This rifle came with a very nice TINY little .385 test target, dang it that damn Larue shootist , aaaannnnddd I couldn't beat it

But I came close with these two try's. Good fun this thread.
