    We have officially come full circle!

    I was at the range Sunday and the guy next to me was getting ready for an elk hunt in Utah. He had a 300 win mag with a brake. That thing blew my cap off. His groups were scattered all over 12" when shooting at the 200 yard line. I think a lot of guys should learn to shoot with a...
