New 200 yard bench rest record.

[kraigwy]

I'm not in to bench rest shooting, but I got to admit this is some hard holding.

Frenchman sets new 200 yard bench rest record, shoots a record .089 group using a 6mmPPC.

That's pretty close to a one hole group, trying to measure a .089 group after using .243 bullets would be hard enough.

Good shooting there Mr. Carlos Pacheco.

As an aside a week ago at the IBS NY state championships @ Camillus NY 2 100 yard world records were broken, the HV 5/100 record which stood for 30 years was likely [upon verification] broken by shooter/BR gunsmith Jim Borden and is noteworthy because it was the smallest group ever fired from a gun resting on bags not a machine rest. It was .046". On the same relay I shot a .134" and mine looked huge.

That's one fine group.

Yup, the 6ppc is tough to beat at short range. I wonder how many times that group has been measured so far. I'm guessing many.

Impressive!

Makes you wonder why the French suck at waging war.

Cause he's the only one in France that can shoot and thats the one rifle that wasn't dropped when Germany invaded

You know, I heard he was about that age and his father's name was Kurt.
