Cold Bore Challenge Q&A Thread

How do you get the video to upload from imgur? I've tried every code and also [ MEDIA=imgur ] [ /MEDIA ] w/ no luck... Keep getting an "imgur refused to connect" error.

Go to the video on Imgur, click “share” click “copy link”

Then just paste the link in the comment

I figured it out w/ youtube as a backup at least so I guess that'll work.

Hmm I have no idea lol

I got my boys up early to go shoot with me before work. My oldest had hits at 388, 513 and 623. He had some misses too. He has a hard time holding on the target and not over it because it's far. The youngest tried the 388 a couple times with a .223 ai but missed.

I am not sure where we hit the targets today. Just ringing the steel was fun.

It was a little chilly this morning at 47°. My youngest boy said he didn't like the cold metal cheekrest of the chassis on the .223 ai. The wind was about the same as 2 days ago.

I had a first round hit at 623 today. I shot off my tripod. The last bull elk I killed was off the tripod.

@Justin Crossley is the game bag thing the first ten shooters to post a video of their first shot or BOTH shots?

Cold front and rain showers coming in for tomorrow morning…..hoping to get my shot in before taking the kids to a Freighofers run for women fund raiser

Just so I understand, we arent allowed to take a shot until 8AM mtn time?

 

[realunlucky]

That's correct 8am is the start.

If your posting at 805 I'm looking at the position of the sun.

Cheating will have steep consequences

You can start shooting as early as you like on June 3rd and post the first shot that day after 8:00 am.

Practice is any rifle shooting, so you would need to complete the challenge before the match or start after the match.

I'm hoping this is the case! I'm at a baseball tournament with my boy in another town. We're hiking targets in this afternoon to a canyon I found on Google Earth and getting up early to shoot. He's gotta be at the ballfield at 8:00 so no shooting for us after that.

I may be missing sarcasm in this, but post #303 in this thread says you can shoot as early on 6/3 as you want, but can't post until 8 am.

Nobody wants to give the east coasters an advantage! I like real unlucky idea! Or maybe throw a wrench in it and do an early bird drawing on Sunday? Anybody that posts a video on SATURDAY is in for the drawing! Probably entice a lot more fun videos of dirt flying!!! @realunlucky @Justin Crossley @robby denning

Im on board with that idea. Level the playing field for different time zones.

And drawings that I never win are always fun!!! Kind of like Colorado draw, so much excitement and so much more letdown!

I remember being able to shoot anytime tomorrow and post 8am mountain?

I can shoot at the house but was hoping to be able to do it earlier and move onto some other stuff and just post later.

Either way I hope my shooting is better than my painting skills!

Let's get this cleared up!

We were planning to shoot around 0600 and then be to a spot with service good enough for YouTube upload at 0800.
