				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After we ran our Bulletin news item about Ron Boyd&#8217;s amazing <a href="http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2012/04/ron-boyd-shoots-1-462-5-shot-group-at-1000-yards/">1.462&#8243; 5-shot group</a> at 1000 yards, many readers wanted to see some close-up photos of Ron&#8217;s rig. Thanks to Robert Ross of the <a href="http://www.midwestbenchrest.com/" target="new">MidWest Benchrest Club</a>, we have some photos of Ron with his ultra-accurate 6mm Dasher 17-lb Light Gun. This rifle features a BAT SV action, Precision Rifle &#038; Tool (PR&#038;T) &#8220;Hammerhead stock&#8221; with 5&#8243;-wide front wings, Nightforce 12-42 Benchrest scope, and Jewell trigger. Ron had just added a 30&#8243; 1:8&#8243;-twist Bartlein barrel to the gun before shooting the 1.462&#8243; group. That barrel only had about 40 rounds through it when it produced the near-record group. The barrel in photos below was a 28&#8243; Benchmark, recently replaced with the new Bartlein. Ron&#8217;s ultra-accurate 6 Dasher load consists of surplus <a href="http://www.iidbs.com/hitech.zkb?root&#038;GENMENU61&#038;object-menu6" target="new">Long Range Match</a> powder, with Spencer 103gr bullets. Ron also anneals his Dasher brass after every firing.</p>

<p><b>Henry Pasquet&#8217;s .284 Win Heavy Gun</b><br />
At the same Midwest Benchrest Club IBS match where Ron shot his small five-shot group, Henry Pasquet drilled a very impressive 3.348&#8243; ten-shot group. This group was just .304&#8243; off the IBS 10-shot Heavy Gun record of <a href="http://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2009/10/greatest-hits-record-setting-liquid-cooled-heavy-gun/">3.044&#8243; shot by Joel Pendergraft</a> in 2009. We are told that Henry was running a straight .284 Winchester. You can see in the inset photos below that Henry uses a tuner on his barrel. He also has fitted an extra-wide front sled and a machined rear &#8220;keel&#8221; to reduce torque and improve tracking. Henry can adjust windage and elevation with BOTH his Fulghum front rest (from <a href="http://www.randolphmachine.com/front.html" target="new">Randolph Machine</a>) and his adjustable rear rest.</p>
