One would think that most folks would like to know if their irons are up to the task,,, I like what JE mentioned,,, its nice to know if our rifles/ the """Package""" can pull off some awesomeness shots by what ever means it takes to do so,,, it helps build confidence knowing that this unit is ready to rock...
Once a person knows what the package can do,,, it makes it easier to use our rifle in diffrent shooting positions since we all ready know that its a tack-driver or not...
I for 1 will never be as consistent as any of the rifles I own since they are built to out perform my shooting skills,,, this I know from testing them in the planted land canon position,,, ha...
How often would I get a chance to pull that off in the hunting situation,,, 0.00002 chances on a good day,,, and its only hsppened once on a Elk hunt 30 + years ago...
So the question I ask my self,,, do I continue to push the limits of the irons I own to find out if they can shot some nice groups,,, or is it better to just guess that they are good enough...
"""Not."""
I don't know what other folks do in their shooting sports since I walk in my own shoes,,, its a full time job for me,,, so finding out if my rifles will shoot is something I work at...
I'm like the old fellow that comes to our range to shoot a vertical and horizontal,,, he does his best each time he bunkers down behind his irons,,, at the end of a set he looks down range to see a flat line or vertical,,, on the good days he sees something that looks like a group,,, if he was up to the task there will be a group down range if all the stars and moon line up... ha...
I quite shooting groups 4 or 5 years ago,,, now I spend my time get comfortable for clean break away shots,,, i practice this once I know my rifle will shoot...
I only hope that all the rest of gear and reloads are up to the task along with everything else.
Did i mention that I was pretty happy shooting 1 and 2 moa verticals and horizontals this winter,,, I'm pretty proud of my self knowing that the cold frozen North didnt put me off my game plan to much... Lol
Cheers from the North
