I agree and the I’m glad he put this challenge up, it shut up a lot of keyboard snipers it’s been an eye opener for a bunch of folks

Hmmmmm..........methinks this would be a lot of fun. Might have to take the old Warlock on a vacation.

I'll spot for you!Hmmmmm..........methinks this would be a lot of fun. Might have to take the old Warlock on a vacation.
My money is on @ButterBean with the Ultracat. 16 lbs 124 HH 4000 fps.
Or we get there early and load some lightweights to 5000 ish HaHa.
This thinking has me in my happy place.

Right now my thinking is we will set it up like a archery 3d course. Move from shooting position to shooting position at varying ranges and terrain. Probably take us a weekend to plot out the course. Would love to do 50 shooting positions.

My back is on the fritz so if I can make it I’ll need to be at a bench
I'm working on how to set up a receiver type rest from my side by side.
Dang sure nothing prone.

Methinks about 20% of the shots should be from a ground blind:
Another 20% from a treestand using a rest....even if it's mounted at ground level so nobody has to actually climb a tree:
Another 20% using a log or other field expedient rest:
20% using a tripod:
Lastly, make 20% from a bench under ideal conditions as kind of a baseline to measure the other methods against. You could even use the same 20 targets for each.....just different ways of setting up to engage the targets. I think it would be interesting to compare and contrast the number of hits between the various setups.

I'm stirring pretty good on this one. I am thinking maybe the 30 BigDog running the 138gr HHT around 4100 fps. Hehehe!

I like the direction you’re going.
My thoughts:
No prone positions.
Shooting aids are bipods, bags, shooting sticks.
Shooter chooses support per position
