ANY QUIGLEY SHOOTERS OUT THERE????

[JB1975]

Creedmores do that with zero practice and factory ammo.

 

[Bluehair]

I’m working on a 6.5-Quigley wildcat as we speak.

 

[Jgill19]

Holly Weirded out! lol I liked that!

 

[tailchasers]

Only with my dad's old Coast to Coast single shot bolt action 22lr. I've honestly killed p-dogs out past 300 yds with open sights. Does that count? ?

 

[yoteduster]

The man can definitely shoot

 

[elkassassin]

And Any DUMB-ASS Can Free-Hand that 6.5 Standing Up & Hit The Bucket With Open Sites at 700+ Yards Right?

Only the ones from the Basin.

Pfffft…..any 4 year old Somalian kid can do that.

You really wanna be a badazz you need to hit a tiny ball into a cup from 200 yards.

 

[EVILNR]

Well, he can see better than me.

 

[elkassassin]

That's What i Was Thinking As Well!

Well, he can see better than me.

 

[THEBUTE]

Four shots with a 45 120 I would be looking for an ice pack.

 

[woodturner]

I am totally impressed. Shooting that distance, off hand and hitting the "bucket". Well done.

GEEZUS Homer!

They'll Start A Long Range Pistol Deer Hunt Here After Seeing That!

 

[elkassassin]

Look at The MOA Rail/Base on That Bad Boy!

 

[elkassassin]

See That blue?

 

[Homer]

I am VERY skeptical of the pistol story......

 

[elkassassin]

Come On Homer!

Where There's LEAD There's DANGER!

I am VERY skeptical of the pistol story......

 

[slamdunk]

Speaking of Quigley.....the Technology Committee is working on language for a "Straight Wall" cartridge to possibly be added into the HAMS hunts.

 

[Homer]

405wcf........perfect

better limit optics from the get go slam...on the straight walls....they are not chumps

 

[slamdunk]

There are no optics allowed on HAMS hunts, and the rounds will be limited to length.

 

[slamdunk]

The states allowing these are a .35 caliber minimum and maximum case length of 1 13/16".

 

[Homer]

that sucks for 405.....

 

[slamdunk]

that sucks for 405.....

Yep.....defeats the purpose.
The idea is to keep all weapon choices within reason.

 

[Homer]

those lengths are pistol cartridges.....

 

[slamdunk]

those lengths are pistol cartridges.....

I'll admit I am not educated in straight walls, but I am about to learn.

A 357 LEVER is Perty Deadly!

Just Don't Put a Scope on it!

Don't Worry!

Guys Like The Guy Above Won't Need one!

 

[wweaver79]

I think the case length/min foot pounds need to be looked at, most the states currently doing this are whitetail states. You don't want guys going after elk with 357 mag lever gun. Sure it will work with some 180 grain loads if you treat it like bow hunting, if you know what your doing. I would love to be able to use my iron sighted model 94 in 375 win. Iron sights leaves everything about equal. 375 win is 2.02 inch case length. 45/70 is 2.10 inches, 405 win is 2.58 inch case length.

Whether it is a 12 gauge slug gun with a rifled barrel or a 45/70. Most states in east have transitioned to this from just allowing slug guns. Mississippi did it but left it at single shot and 35 caliber, apparently no one on the rules committee had heard of the 35 Whelen and people are shooting deer at 400 yards on the "primitive" hunts.

Maybe say no semi autos ? My 450 bushmaster AR15 is a short straight wall but does not really fit with what a HAMS hunt is meant to be, my opinion.

Great feedback, thank you.

The semiautomatic is being discussed, the conflict is shotguns.

i have shot the quigley rifle match in forsyth mt since 2003 and have never seen that guy there shooting, if he is shooting that good he would win the match every year, shooting off sticks on 5 targets and 1 bucket offhand at only 350yds, i call BS. i have only seen 3 people hit the bucket all eight shots for score since i have been going, i hit 7 out of eight shots for score once. 500-700 shooters compete at the match on fathers day every year.

Interesting......the pistol story made me skeptical.....even more than the quigley story....I assume if he could shoot like that you would know his name...

 

[biggergun]

i will have my mom watch it, to see if she has ever seen him at the Q as we call it, see has only missed one match in 30years.

 

[Idahoron]

I have been thinking about shooting at the mini Quigley they have in like September? I want to use my muzzleloader.

 

[biggergun]

i have never made the mini Q, september is for hunting.

 

[txhunter58]

Cool video but I too doubt it is real. Easy to stage. You can see the end of the barrel wobbling
