Definition of a tack driver.......    Bone when he keeps getting moderator reports about kids not playing nice or excessive whining.  I'm not the babysitter, so keep it clean and keep it nice, or I will put the last Tack in your coffin here at huntwa.   :)   No need to reply.   Thanks


Nice shooting Plumber!

It seems most tack drivers are the guy shooting the gun. I think most factory guns will outshoot most operators.  :chuckle:
i know we have some great shooters on this site and not saying they arent but the majority of the hunting public couldnt shoot a .3 moa shooter better than a 2 moa shooter.

Yeah, check out the guy in the Buckrun thread.   His MOA at 400 yards is 10 feet or so apparently. :yike:

Saw that! Reminds me of one of the early Christiansen arms video. The one where the guy shoots like 26 times on an elk. Had a round count during the video. You would think they would have cut it, since it was a promotional for their rifles! Cut the bad shots, like best of the west does lol!

Have you looked at the Huskemaw shooting system, for the ultra long range shooting?  They make custom turrets for scopes to quickly get on target at varying long ranges.  Then they made a hunting show for product placement.  They look for animals about a mile out and shoot at them.

I have one of the best of the west videos. Doping the wind.  It has some good info but also seems like a commercial.  That Huskemaw system I don't like.  There is just too many folks that think a bullet drops the same at any temp,humidity, pressure. 
https://www.howlforwildlife.org/take_action  It takes 10 seconds and it’s free. To easy to make an excuse not to make your voice heard!!!!!!

I think the Huskemaw system is fine. I just don't like how they make it look like anybody can grab one and shoot a thousands yards. Like you said there are many variables that come into play.

no kidding, i gotta ask, are these groups i hear about off some kind of rest like a lead sled?  i usually shoot of something more primitive, like a handy tree branch with a fork in it :chuckle: on my best days i might get into the 1" group range.  of course, i'm somewhat nearsighted.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

As far as a tack driver goes I'm happy with mine first picture is at 100 yards off a bench 2nd picture is at 300 yards off the same bench. My biggest problem is shooting my heartbeat

how come you "tack driver" owners are so stingy with the shots?  I appreciate 5 or 10 shot groups as they are more indicative of accuracy than 2 or 3 shots.

I had a bad rifle once nicknamed "Christine" and it once put three shots thru the same hole.  Once.
