[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1392645"] I am not grumpy, angry or otherwise overly upset about what appears to be bias in the reporting of the "World Record Event". I feel I predicted it when I said I didn't like the "rules" or format. I am familiar how "articles" for online or paper magazines get published. The "publisher" will accept articles from almost anyone because paying to have the articles written is a huge cost. The below article was most likely written by someone from Applied Ballistics/ELR Central. Why would I say such a thing! Blasphemy. Not at all. There is no mention of who contributed the article. If that is revealed, I am willing to retract my opinion and statement that the reporting is bias. The "winner" is Nate Statler with 3 hits cold bore at one mile "ish" (1768 yards). ELR Central declares this a new "record". However. The "reporter" in the referenced article spends most if her/his time writing about Paul Phillips and John Armstrong who "tied" for a "record" at 1500 yards. ELR Rule 27, [ATTACH=full]88994[/ATTACH] In the below article, the new distance "record holder", Nate Slatler is almost ignored by the writer who spends most of the verbiage extolling the accomplishments or Applied Ballistics team member Paul Phillips. [USER=85458]@DocUSMCRetired[/USER] never really addressed concerns raised in [URL]https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/elr-central-world-record-event.195034/page-3#post-1389693[/URL] Not worth any kind of ****ing match so please don't go there. I would however love to hear "opinions" of whether you thing the reporting is biased. Remember Paul Philips is listed as 1st "record holder" despite rule 27.
