What TDX has that I don't have......
CYA accuracy fool friends:
What Tony K Harper has that I don't have......
As a competitor I was a folder, choker in other words....
TDX is 100% the opposite.......going into the last target, if TDX is in the lead, you can take it to the bank...
Big Dog is starting to develop that same quality......
The Olympics are going on and American Nick Mowrer, shooting a DiOrio Turbo 3-P rifle, is competing...
So I've been watching some 50 Meter 3-P shooting from past Olympics...
And I've I've just watched a match that ends with the absolute best example of Tony K Harper's determination to win, and never allowing himself to fold........like I always did...
Here's the link:

That last shot's just like Tony K Harper........who's a RFBR competitor, that, just like the shooter in this video, will not be denied!

I've never been impressed by the accuracy of Olympic rifles, since they're all SAP ignition..
As an example, back in 2007 I built a 3-P rifle for Tarl Kempley, who won a great deal of Olympic "class" matches with it.....
Now get this.....
The action was an early, .875" barrel thread Hall......yes a Hall...
That rifle wouldn't have drawn a smell at the ARA Indoor Nationals....
Yet Tarl had much success with it in big time 3-P shooting.....around the world....
What impressed me about the shooter in the video, was she was shooting offhand......
Standing on her hind legs, not prone, and bringing it on that last shot....and not folding...
Man, that was Tony K Harper impressive....
