It is always nice to see the actual targets not just the rifle. On that alone I give it an A+. As far as level of difficulty, in terms of marksmanship, I think it is obvious that not much of that exists. Trigger control is definetely something that is required, though. I think the difficulty relates to the equipment and the Ammo. Fitting the equiment to the shooter and fitting the ammo to the rifle is easier said than done.
Overall good shooting.

@264Win1 You can build up a nice Ruger 10/22 to learn on. Build a little at a time. Boyds SS Evolution stock, a Hornet trigger,, a target bolt, a nice stainless fluted barrel, a mini bi-pod and a rim fire style scope. It will soon become your favorite weapon and very accurate. It's cheap to shoot and way fun. With practice and Kentucky windage you can nail beer cans at 250/300 yds.and further. It's easy to dance beer cans at 50/100 yds.Golf balls are a kick as well. Build it yourself!

@sandrifter I love when I put my AR-15 service rifle on one sandbag on the bench next to guys with high power scopes and weighted sleds and beat them outright usually with .75-1 moa versus their 2 moa.

Some day I will be able to afford a rifle that groups that well. Then all I have to do is learn to use it to the optimum.

Anybody can shoot like this at 15 yards..

For a video titled introduction it sure didn't do much but show a guy pulling a trigger and a target getting holes shot into it.
A much better video, it shows the results unlike all the rest.
Job well done!

People can talk s*** on benchrest shooters all they want. If it weren't for the BR shooters most of the innovations in rifle accuracy wouldn't be here today. You probably wouldn't even know what a pillar and glass bedded action or a carbon fiber stock were if it weren't for benchrest. Not to mention so many others. So lay off!

It would seem to me that once you are sure of the weapon and ammo by having touching groups then you would do it "freehand" and try to perfect yourself to match the weapon's ability. I have shot in competition before and found that once I was sure that it was me at fault, then being humbled I learned to compete against my weapon. It's then all about honing your human skills to incorporate yourself with the weapon. It's breathing, trigger pull, sight picture, heart rate and concentration.
