Who is George Atkins?


CYA accuracy fool friends:


Who is this George Atkins guy?



The reason I'm asking, is because this George Atkins stole the show at the 2023, IR-50 Tennessee State Unlimited Yards Match finishing in the top five with a 750.


The reason I'm saying he stole the show is because, as I understand it, he was shooting a bone stock 52 Winchester off a bi-pod!



(By the way, shooting off a bi-pod is no handicap.....that's one of the dirtiest little secrets in all of RFBR shooting...

Shooting off a bi-pod is an asset, not a liability..)


Anyway..............


Who is this George Atkins guy ?

I wonder how this George Atkins guy and his factory 52 Winchester could do on the ARA target????


Cliff Arnold shot a 5 card AGG of 2260 with Little Black Knight.....

Could Mr Atkins better this......???



By the way, there's no doubt that LBK can better it.......and by a bunch.....I know, I've shot LBK myself, twice now...

LBK against Mr Atkins's factory 52 Winchester?

LBK against Mr Atkins's factory 52 Winchester?


LBK fans:


On another web site someone posted about Mr Atkins and his factory 52 Winchester shooting against LBK.


Who do I think would win?



I know who would win......



But........


Mr Atkins doesn't give a rat's hind end about beating LBK, and LBK doesn't give a rat's hind end about beating Mr Atkins...


Both Mr Atkins and LBK's goal is to beat the best in RFBR shooting, head's up.....


Man, I love this little thing...

LBK is just like my new MD-PAS pistol.....

LBK is just like my new MD-PAS pistol.....


LBK fans:


LBK don't want to compete in some sort of factory class.....


LBK wants to go toe-to-toe with the best RFBR shooters on Earth......



Just like my MD-PAS pistol.....


If ARA had a pistol class I wouldn't compete in it......


My pistol is just like LBK, it don't back up from no rifles, or no RFBR shooters, anywhere on Earth...

I know Mr Atkins feels the same way.....there's no way he'd shoot his 52 Winchester in some sort of "factory" class...

A challenge for Mr George Atkins...

A challenge for Mr George Atkins...


Mr George Atkins:


Since you said you follow CYA regularly, and since you stole the show at the 2023, IR-50 Tennessee State Yards Unlimited with your factory 52 Winchester, I have a challenge you might be interested in...


Your factory 52 Winchester against LBK...


Now Mr Atkins....


At the upcoming ARA Indoor Nationals bring your factory 52 Winchester and hopefully Jeff Patterson will have room to carry LBK to the Nationals.


I propose you shoot them both.....yes.....and I'd like you to shoot the same ammo in LBK that you do in your factory Winchester...OK...

I'll pay LBK's entry fee and you for your ammo....I'll even pay your entry fee...



You can shoot which ever one you wish first.....


Mr Atkins, would I be worried if you shot your factory Winchester first, then got on a hot run with LBK, to the point, that LBK might wind up beating your 52, that you'd lay off to keep that from that happening?

No Mr Atkins I wouldn't worry a bit about that.....I have no doubt if that actually happened you wouldn't let up a bit with LBK..


I trust you completely....



So what do you say?


Your LBK and pistol fool friend, Bill Calfee



___________________________


PS:



Mr Atkins, I'm not sure I can do this, or even if there's room on the front bumpers of LBK to do it....


But................I'll try to see if I can mount a bi-pod on LBK so you can shoot him like you do your factory Winchester...


Hey, I ain't no fool......you got a big advantage with your bi-pod over shooting off a rest.....so I'd like LBK to have the same advantage..


If I can pull it off.....

Mr Atkins:


I carefully studied LBK today to see if I could install a bi-pod on the front bumpers.....


I'd either have to remove the bumpers and machine clearance slots in them, or, make a new bi-pod rail that would extend below the line of the bumpers...


Either way is more than I'm capable of............



So you'll have to shoot LBK off a rest system of some sort......


Mr Atkins, you've got a big edge shooting off a bi-pod......( that's one of those dirty little secrets about RFBR shooting)



But I believe LBK still stands a most excellent chance of beating your factory 52......a most excellent chance..


By the way Mr Atkins, if you do get the chance to shoot LBK you'll fall in love with the little thing......

You're kidding about bi-pods aren't you Calfee!

You're kidding about bi-pods aren't you Calfee!


CYA accuracy fool friends:


You're kidding about bi-pods aren't you Calfee!



Not hardly.....bi-pods are truly one of the dirty little secrets in the world of RFBR....


I'm the "original" bi-pod user......30 years and counting...



Here's a picture that I'm so thankful was taken because it shows the first muzzle device in history.........and of course I'm shooting off bi-pods.....


This picture was taken thirty years ago.....

So am I kidding about bi-pods........not hardly......and I've explained several times over the years why they work so well, especially on center grip RFBR pistols.....

Keep your fingers crossed....

Keep your fingers crossed....


Mr Atkins won't mind if I change topics for a post...


Jeff Patterson will shortly be getting one of the NITRO actions....



The first thing he's going to do is run some 10 round case head penetration test with it...


So keep you fingers crossed that this new NITRO action will produce Turbo level ignition uniformity....
