The only extensive long range shooting I have ever done was with an M1A off a bipod at a steel water tank  on the ranch.  Distance measured by the truck odometer worked out to a little over 1400 yards.

Now.  We're talking a square steel tank that came off of a old deuce and a half, maybe 10'x5'x8' with a steady 5mph mph crosswind and a minor mirage.   Of the 5 guys shooting (iron sights) I won with 4 hits out of 80 rounds. One other guy had three,  no one else hit it at all.

Once you really get out there you are going to be surprised where that bullet can go.

I confess...

I can keep all my shots on the bullseye, around the space of a 50-cent piece with my Bushy Dissipator.

At 50 yards.  Indoors.  With no crosswind.  And taking plenty of time on the benchrest to breathe and line up and wait until everything is picture perfect before I squeeze off.

That's it.  Anything past that and I suck.

There ya go.

100 yards, 4X scope,  Frankengun A1/A2 mix with 20" Bushmaster NM barrel, 10 shot groups average 3/8 across, with my pet handload.  5 shot groups are often one ragged hole.    With a stronger scope, I expect this group to shrink as the crosshair intersection on the current scope is bigger than the resulting group.

I don't think he or she want that either.

How about ask him to clarify. All to often I see on this board someone post something outlandish, and everyone jumps his shit. You know, if you were to IM Epi, I bet he would not know this post was going on. If you check the original post, he has not posted anything there since then.

Embellishing stories has been around since the beginning of time. The hunters and fishermen on this board can attest to it. Ask anyone what the biggest that got away and you get some sort of embellishment.

I do not know why he said what he said. All I know is we got people slamming this guy and he is not even here.

There are people posting here who are doing what other hunters and so forth do when one embellishes. That's fine. then there are those here who are slamming this guy and making derogatory remarks about him, what good does that do, fulfill some sort of personal satisfaction, look at me I can attack a person on the internet, who I do not know, and who is not present to respond.

Winston, if you said something on this board or any other, I would say the same thing about you. We have met, I think you are a stand up guy. So all I am really saying is get all the facts before condemning.

Heh, the source would be edp himself, he likes to talk.. :)

Umm.. do you know how disability pensions work for uniformed services in NYC? I do, it's a long drawn out game and edp's been playing it long before 9/11/01.

I suggest you read that link I posted. You see edp's been shooting with us for a long time. When he had appointments to see the EMS surgeons regarding his disability pension or when things weren't going well he'd break out and wear the back brace. Elsewise there was never any sign of discomfort or pain, or for that matter the back brace!

Not buying that story?  Well, I do have a couple bridges for sale...

Has anyone pondered that he actually did do this?  He's been known to create some VERY powerful hand loads.  I'm betting in the general area of 4000fps with a 168gr bullet.  Anyone contact him to get his side, maybe it was a couple of typos?

4000fps out of a .308, huh?  I'm thinking that getting a 168gr .30 to 4000fps would involve something like 85-90gr of powder and a 28"-30" barrel.

No! 1 MOA at 1200 yds would be a little over 12 inch groups. 1 MOA is approximately 1 inch groups for every 100 yards. So he is saying he has a 1/12 MOA shooter. Right. [BS2]

Jesus guys, when is it going to be enough?  We all know that he is exaggerating the shot groups (greatly), and we all know he has problems....Its painfully obvious.  Maybe 9/11 was just too much for him, how about that for an explanation of his behavior?  Different people have different threshholds and maybe he was pushed past his.

Whether he was inside the building or 5 blocks away, I think that just being there might have been enough.  Ever think of that?

I am 31 years old and I havent cried since I was 12, but whenever I see video of September 11th, it reminds me of the things that I saw in the following days and weeks and I cry.  I cry because it scares the shit out of me.  I cry because that never should have happened.  I cry for all the poor people who died just for showing up to work that day,  and I cry because I am afraid that any day now, we are going to get kicked in the nuts again, maybe worse this time.

Enough already, leave the fucking guy alone.

OK OK that’s what I get for not looking at my posts for a couple of days.....4 pages not bad...

First off I AM NO FUCKEN HERO....Thanks for standing up Hi Ram anyway...Yes still on the heavy Narc...NO not LSD TYPES. to the A_HOLE who printed that.


Now PASA Park...The long range with the 8 spots and the Table on the first line. I am sure it is 1,200yds to the end. I know it is past 800 at least thats what I was told.

You guys could argue back and fort all you want say I am full of BS and impossible to do this or that. My advice to you is KEEP PRACTICING.

I made the shots I made. I don't care what you think or don't believe. A 16" AR10T on a Bipod with a Tasco SuperSniper Scope will make it out to 1,000 or 1,200yds. Even YOU could put 3 or 5 shots within a Quarter circle.

A Bushmaster 24" Varminter will make it out to 800 yds without a problem. I suggest instead of putting my abilities down. To get out there and Practice. Maybe you will also be able to do the same.
Could I do it again. Maybe, I don't know since I am NOT a WORLD CLASS Shooter. Some days I hit the mark others I don't. But I try and go practice almost every day after Physical Therapy.  4 hrs a day at a 50 yd range. I shoot at little dots on paper. I figure that is what you see at 1,000 yds. True the accuracy is better and there is no having to figure Major bullet Drop or worry about Wind drift. Unless it is very windy before or when it is raining.
I am trying to get out to Calverton to shoot at some real distance, but I make do with what we have.
Bottom line I practice or should I say I shoot because I love to shoot instead of sit and argue about someone being able to make a shot on a computer. Well first time for everything I guess.

HAVE A NICE DAY...
