I don't know why he would be having a go at re enactors, historical re-enactment is good exercise, a great way to build teamwork and encourages people to explore the past. Just like service rifle shooting.
Because you're all dangerous fantasists, OBVIOUSLY Now sell all your uniforms/military rifles/vehicles and spend it on blatting a farmed giraffe in the face from 20 yards, like a normal person!

Whilst looking around Mike Yardley's Youtube channel I came across this video from the Fieldsports channel which he has appeared on more than once:
As we know he didn't just attack Black Rifles but also CSR, Airsoft and Gaming as dangerous fantasists. Isn't what the video above show what could be done! Outreach into other communities like the Gaming to encourage uptake of shooting, a far more positive way of doing things then just branding anybody he doesn't understand as a danger.

Funnily that video shows what should be done, (I could detect a bit of sniping at some habits perceived and otherwise of my generation but not too bad). That is the way to outreach positively, well it was more positive than anything Mick Yardley has done. That is our future, outreach to the kind of people seen there, recruit and even if they only recruitment so many of their friends and colleagues, its a start. Plus it gets people on our side and more sympathetic. Plus hiring a PR firm or two would not go amiss either.

I used mine for first time in comp - 200 yards McQueen.
50.3
Thats 3 out of ten in v bull which is .5 moa
Well under moa overall with factory GGG 168gr
Thats snap shooting at randomly positioned 3 sec exposures. So easily accurate albeit a bit heavy.
Thanks Breacher, good info. It's some price right enough but all this anti black gun talk makes me consider it as a purchase just to help break down the barriers and all that :)
Do you mind if I ask where you got it from?
