My God …. FIVE HUNDRED 25 straight! That’s a lot of good shooting young man. I think the greatest shot I ever saw was the double you made on Snipe. I’m sure Fred Is proud of you too.

Thanks but it’s definitely the gun.

Mr. Davis,

I would respectively disagree. I appreciate your humble statement, but the facts would dispute you.

I have never been a competitive shooter, unless you count my NSTRA competition, but I can appreciate the effort you have put forth.

Congratulations.
