Congrats and much respect are in order. You sound like a final gentlemen and I wish you well and many more years of shooting to come. May we all be as humble in our achievements as you.

“Lynn, before long, you will be able to walk down in front of a bunch of shooters, all at the bench, half centerfire and half rimfire, and from a distance, you’d never be able to tell the difference…by looking at the equipment.”

This quote is from Bill Calfee and it appears Jackie had his tuner out in front of the crown as Bill said they should be.

I am sure Jackie is on cloud nine right now and congratulations are in order.

This significant achievement couldn’t of happened to a nicer gentleman, enthusiastic supporter of the sport and mentor supreme to all. Well done!

Thanks, Butch. I could not see in the picture. The rings looked like Farley but I couldn’t be sure.

Jackie was shooting a cast Farley receiver.

First of all, a hearty congratulations. The article says that he was shooting on an “angle transition.” Can someone explain what this is, perhaps in the forums?

Paul, Do you know what action Jackie was shooting?

This would be an amazing feat in calm conditions. That it was done in a 15 – 20 mph wind is hard to comprehend. Thanks for publishing the picture and details so quickly. I think that this record will stand for a long time.
