To be fair, I was extremely rusty at the Toby shoot, the last time I shot past 500 was at last years Toby shoot :oh noes:
Even used a fair bit of ammo I loaded last year....
Thats ok Greg, still a good show
My take on this DF purchase is good on ‘em; if they can stop some piece of faeces bad guy(s) with a terminal solution, then that’s one less to hurt us
@Kiwi Greg how accurate was your M107 at 1.5k? I Remmber It wasn't flash but awesome to shoot.

Considering that my Barnard 50 BMG is two to three time more accurate than my M107-A1 was, it would be a struggle to hit the 1330 yard gong with any consistency with the 107 with great ammo.....
I have shot plenty of sub half MOA groups with my Barnard & managed one 1/2 moa & a few moa groups with my M107-A1, it was very accurate for a 107.
To qualify that my Barnard is a POS compared to my 375s, the 50 is designed to "hit the Hilux" anywhere, not "hit Hiluxs wing mirror"
The M107-A1 is absolutely awesome to use & its bloody hard to argue with 10 x 50 cal rounds in the air before the first one gets there, but they are anti material, not anti personal.
The M107-A1 is the coolest semi ever, period, certainly an experience to own & shoot one, just cranking the action is an experience :cool:

I was privileged to own one & never thought it could ever happen, at the end of the day a 50 is just a very very cool toy :D
They’d get screwed!?
Some ranges get bent out of shape over muzzle brakes, but I've never seen a rifle lift up a shooting mat next to one :thumbsup:

The optics and mounts run to $20K per rifle, around 10 mags per rifle, spare barrels x2 + rifle cost in case and your pretty close to the $48,000
That's your opion mate.
I've got a mate who shoots for nz army team and had the Aussie team here last year so have fairly good idea of what the boys can do.
This year the lead counter sniper instructor for the allied forces in Afghanistan was present.
While his unit holds the longest kill in the world he was amazed what we do in the paddock.
You should come see what some of these guys can do before judging.
