Great video Doug and thanks for that.
Good story, when shooting DCRA in the early 60's I took my No5 to the range one night and Cec Huntley asked if he could try it. He was my coach so of course I let him. We were shooting at the Military Range just east of Moose Jaw (Burdick) and to the south across the "river" was a rock about the size of a smalll steer. Cec took two sighters and then hit the rock with the next three shot. Distance 600 yards + or - and must say I was a little shocked. Cec was a great coach, shot and person, WW2 vet (Beaufighters) who served out of England.

I have been hoping something like this would pop up from real shooters. This punches the myth of inaccuracy out the window, and destroys a lot of fog about this weapon.

Does anyone know the load used in this test (video) or the rock mentioned by poster ?

Thanks for posting this. Its inspirational !

When Cec used my No5 he shot whatever we were using that evening, just surplus .303 military nothing special.
