Yep you had to run with all your gear. It would suck if you had a pelican case. The rear bags are light and it would take to much time to remove them .
No, I knew it was Kerr running and gunning, but he has someone behind him picking up his brass and taking a vid... Who is that?264Charlie wrote:Don't you know who he is? That's The Doc. I would call him the driller but he missed his cold bore both days.

Have not been around since 07 but I think the game has changed a lot since then. Pretty much everyone is running 6mm or 6.5mm now a days.CamW wrote:What I find surprising is the number of .308's,or lack of, I only count 5 and the high .308 barely made the the top 50% ( 36th place). The first TBRC in 2007 Mike Miller came in 4th and I came in 6th shooting .308's.
How many steel frame bicycles have you seen in the Tour de France lately? Or how many action pistol shooters are shooting a 45ACP? When competition is stiff, you have to exploit every possible advantage. Even when there is negligible ballistic advantage, the lower recoil and reduced movement is reason enough to shoot a "sub" caliber.CamW wrote:What I find surprising is the number of .308's,or lack of, I only count 5 and the high .308 barely made the the top 50% ( 36th place).

It's crazier than mere carbon fiber and titanium. Some of the bikes are actually unpainted to save weight:buffybuster wrote:How many steel frame bicycles have you seen in the Tour de France lately?
I agree but you also don't bring a knife to a gun fight.robert hode wrote:I guess in the future everyone will be shooting lasers (actual). no drop, no drift, no recoil.
The winner will be the one who can find and hit the target the fastest and most consistently...
.308 seems like more fun.

When everyone else goes back to 308s then so will i.
