Important checklist

Excuse list
Creedmoore not noted for accuracy
75 yard may be stretching the viper
Trigger is to heavy
No external twist
Hand filed crown
Vld's inconsistent
Didn't know longitude & latitude
To calculate coriopolis effect

Ground undulation may have been 20- 30 mm more than calculated for
Breeze was gusting 1-2 KLM
Gun bearer didn't lay out blanket right
Fredo didn't hold his breath
Range call inaccurate possibility 76-78 yrd
Hog may have been 17 1/2 lbs throwing out calculations
Fredo's
glasses recommendations are probably spot on !!
I think they were fire ants !

Snert memorize this list for the next time fredo gives you that look !!
 
The whole problem is you're using a creedmore to shoot him in the beans, when instead you need to call up Rufus Hussey and get one of his beanshooters, then have him show you how to hit something with it. His beanshooters were far more accurate than any creedmore...
 
I JUST KNEW you guys would be helpful! I think I need an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet not my 3x5 card for this material.

So lets see..

#9 My anti-wobble tactical cordura covered inner tube was losing air, causing my clown shoes to tipple me over too far which reduced my FOV in my Viper.
#10 Fredo was chewing loudly on breath mints, distracting me
#11 My hydrogometer which calculates the moisture in the air was disrupted by solar flares, giving a false reading, causing my Creedmore fired VLDs to overpenetrate the coriopolis effect.
#12 Range simply too far for Fredo's spotting abilities...find new spotter
#13 Stork has been sneaking around my cooler and over gain twisted my barrel
#14 Need new cartridge, Creedmore only for yuppie guys shooting, not real groundhog shooters like me.
#15 Groundhog NOT 18 pounds, but only looked that big in my Viper, causing me to aim big, miss big
#16 Groundhogs are made of steel or wear body armor, so need head shots only, or BIGGER gun.
#17 Clown shoes too tight
#18 Clown shoes wrong color
#19 Clown shoes ok, but rubber nose causing my cheekweld to change

Guys, this is priceless stuff. You are all so helpful!
 
It's obvious you needed your Creedmore hard back shooting jacket and sling.

#20 Clothing not up to task of such tactical situations

Note to self:
Ditch the suspenders and Dickies, wear Under Armour undies, clown shoes and CREEDMORE shooting jacket with sling. Arrange blanket properly under tactical codura inner tube. Camo the rubber nose.

Got it.

That groundhog is in big trouble now
 
I was just in it for the altuism of helping my fellow shooters make the jump into more accurate shooting.

Camo rubber nose, come on now, you know the effect of brightly coloured equipment (we've seen the daisy eaters thread) :eek:
 
You think I can get away with wearing that coat Ermy has on AND my under armour undies? :eek:
 
You own a Yellow a purple & red rifle !
You could get away with wearing your armour undies on the outside !
Super snert ("chuckanator ")

Oh s##t ! He brought the yellow one !!
 
I see two problems. #1. Vortex scope, next to the Creedmoor, one of the most hyped products on the market with a
catchy name.:rolleyes:
#2. Creedmoor, no Virginia, it CAN'T do everything.:p

In all seriousness, was your parallax set right? That dot will move all over the place if it isn't and at 75 yards, probably a lot and you shot over him. I've done this more than a few times. e-huh.gif
 
I just read the 5.11 page and I figured out the problem. YOU WEREN'TPREPARED!! Did you train thru the winter, wearing the plate vest until you could lift Fredo with one hand? You didn't do your 3 mile run each day, every day. You don't have enough ammo, bullets and AR's stashed away. Subconsciously, this makes you tense, nervous, twitchy, and second guessing your self. Did the mice get into your freeze dried food? Mouse poo makes you horny, like Viagra. The Chinese know this! Prone is nota good position to shoot when horny. Get bigger inner tube. You're shooting with a "monopod" and tipping from side to side. The clown shoes may help.
 
Here's snert after missin' a chuck (note the gargoyles) :rolleyes:

If you would have only thought and had your tactical chewing gum, u could have popped in a piece and calmed your nerves and made the shot!!!!
 
When i shoot in the pone I like wearing my skinny jeans. it keeps Critters from crawling up your pants legs and you get 200 fps more velocity out of any round you are shooting. lol
 
Your partner/spotter made a bad wind call !
Incorrect terminology,no command to "send it"
Was it a Mil/Mil scope or Mil/Moa ? The math involved can be overwhelming to some.
