Hi Keefer,
I just wanted to point a few things out for you humbly to avoid miscommunication. For one I never said anything about my daughter shooting 3 shot groups utilizing a Tac-Ops rifle at any time. Not that it would be harder for her to do. It would only make it that much easier.
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: D Keefer Wetzler</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Lonewolf,
I have read a few of you other posts. <span style="text-decoration: underline">Seems like you have an agenda with comments about Tactical Operations</span>. Just for you(lol), I was at the range on Thursday and shot a few 5 shot groups from 100 to 300 yards. I will get photos posted tomorrow. Again they are amazing! As I would have expected with the Tango.
By the way Lonewolf, <span style="text-decoration: underline">If your daughter is shooting those three shot groups with a tactical Operations built weapon. I can understand why she is shooting so well.</span> Pass on to her from me, keep up the good work!!!!

For you to out and shoot 5x shot groups for me makes me feel special. But again it would make a lot of other people in here happier as well. In addition to that; I could care less about anything at 100 yds. Benchrest rifles do what your rifle is doing and better; but that doesn't mean I want one. It's obvious that your rifle is extremely accurate but as far as impression; it has none on me. I am most impressed with "the shooter" that can shoot off hand standing and hit 15" at 500 yds. That amazes me more than a 1 hole at a meezly 100 yds. That's just me speeking my friend. Some are amazed that a rifle can do that. Ultimately all I am saying is that badass rifle of yours doesn't make the shooter; and I know we both agree on that. Send me a picture of you shooting 500 yds w/ 5x shot groups from kneeling, off hand or standing so I can say wow.
I find it obligatory for me to respond to what your statement about my agenda about Tac-Ops. That could mean a couple different things depending on how the reader takes it in. So if you are insinuating that I have some sort of vendetta against Tac-Ops than you are far off. I dont know Mike.R on a personal level; I have only talked with him in the shout box. But I will say I have heard nothing but good and great from that end. As a matter of fact he offered to build me a .338 not long ago. So with that being said; I hope you mean agenda with the meaning of plans for the future with the goal of having a rifle built. You have to be careful with your choice of words especially when people can make bad assumptions like you did with my daughter shooting a Tac-Ops which she I never said anything about.
Everyone has an opinion as do I. I like <span style="text-decoration: underline">military</span> type rifles that are built to military standards because their is a reason for it. I don't particularily care for benchrest rifles because they have to be babied. Some like them some don't. Tac-Ops rifles kinda gives you the best of both worlds. An extremely accurate rifle with BR cability. Most would agree on that. If I had one thing negative to say about the rifle is that it's to damn good looking. Tac-Ops put's extra time making sure the rifle is top notch. I have read that over and over again. It's a decision proccess someone has to make depending on what they desire.
