Great run from both, but Chap's "Its not about speed, its about grace" was chef kiss.

I LOVE how Chap is just so chill! His laid back, “I’m just gonna have fun and shoot what I like” attitude is awesome! No rush, no fuss or care where he places. And no complaining even when there is a malfunction! It just is what it is. LOL

I am quite certain, Chap is an Elbonian sympathizer and Bloke is a competition junkie....

Thank you for introducing us to those firearms and congratulations on that blisteringly fast DIV-3 CZ600 submission. I particularly love that Egyptian Rolling Block - beautiful rifle. I wouldn't mind knowing a bit more about that Swiss Martini. The barrel on that thing was massive!

The chap should stick to rifles produced before 1900. I've never a seen a man so at peace as he is single loading.

Chap: Cool on the Range. Bloke: Excuse on the Range 😉😁. I now have more excuses to add to my own long list 😉🤣.

I do love the Bubba Schuetzen rifle.

The MAS36 was my favorite. All of them were cool.

Thanks for getting me to get out and shoot Cabin Fever, I don't think I can link rumble to a YT post but I did shoot Div 2 yesterday

Fantastic seeing the two of you in all divisions i new you would blast me out of the water but was not expecting you to half my times and then still come back and do a humiliation run! Very inspirational thank you

"Its not about speed, its about grace" lol truer words have not been spoken. Got to be comfortable, got to enjoy the experience.

There should be extra points for the oddest and most obscure rifles and calibres 😁

The Chappie would have a very unfair advantage......

That is a sweet range, gentlemen. I really renjoyed watching this. And I have a new-found appreciation for early, single shot long guns and the people that used them.

The MAS36 action looked smooth, as did the loading with stripper clips. Well done both.

It is remarkably smooth. The only irritating thing is that the stripper clips don’t fall/flip out unless you force the bolt and wreck them.

Moi? Never 😆

Those AR-10 prongs have a nice ringing sound.

Every time someone pulls the trigger on a Sudanese ar10 I expect a pile of extra parts to be added to the market. Perhaps all the ones that were going to have catastrophic disassembly have already done so. I have never seen it happen but I have more exploded Sudanese bolts and uppers that I have ever seen intact rifles.

Well done lads, a very enjoyable video.

Great fun

LOP on the HS is a bit on the slender man side. Can you ditch that plastic butt plate and riser?

@thebotrchap

4 ай бұрын

LOP is adjustable and set up for my anatomy.

A heavier AR would have been more stable. The WWSD rifle is great for carry but is too light for stable shooting..I prefer an open sights up to a 100 yards which is where the AK and Wich lever dominate..You did pretty good for a Brit :) Nice to see there are still some original Armatlites out in the world..Thanks for sharing..

@BlokeontheRange

4 ай бұрын

Thanks. To be honest I don't think I'd have done better with the 20" HBAR, the thing is that it's always a compromise with that kind of shooting, and I prefer lighter. Heavy gets tiring really, really quickly and isn't necessarily more stable as a result. But with the LPVO and Triggercam on it, the WWSD not all as light as it is when I shoot SRA / Brutality with it.

Too bad you can't use a sling, which is the way we shoot when hunting in Montana..It is amazingly stable for those standing long shots..@@BlokeontheRange

@BlokeontheRange

4 ай бұрын

You can use a sling in the "hasty sling" configuration but it's not actually supportive when standing unsupported, and it's a pain to deal with under this level of time pressure in the other positions, the time you spend faffing with it isn't made up for with the increased stability. And I grew up sling-dependent due to the type of shooting I was doing as a teenager so used to use a sling all the time whether it really made sense or not.

Not the way I did it..Put your arm through it, rap once, put elbow into stomach and presto, it is a tight, stable shooting platform..@@BlokeontheRange
