Cabin Fever Challenge 2024: Divisions 1-4 (100m Centrefire)

[@M.M.83-U]

Great run from both, but Chap's "Its not about speed, its about grace" was chef kiss.

[@Riflechair]

Thank you for introducing us to those firearms and congratulations on that blisteringly fast DIV-3 CZ600 submission. I particularly love that Egyptian Rolling Block - beautiful rifle. I wouldn't mind knowing a bit more about that Swiss Martini. The barrel on that thing was massive!

[@GrumpyGenXGramps]

I LOVE how Chap is just so chill! His laid back, “I’m just gonna have fun and shoot what I like” attitude is awesome! No rush, no fuss or care where he places. And no complaining even when there is a malfunction! It just is what it is. LOL

[@BSJ-VT]

This is my first time seeing the VHS-2 on this channel... Just so happens I recieved my VHS-2 back from JARD last week, where they used my rifle to design a trigger pack. The result is a nice two stage trigger with a 3lb 10oz total weight. No word on comercial availability...

[@jamesbromstead4949]

I am quite certain, Chap is an Elbonian sympathizer and Bloke is a competition junkie....

[@saoirse5308]

Thanks for getting me to get out and shoot Cabin Fever, I don't think I can link rumble to a YT post but I did shoot Div 2 yesterday

[@g54b95]

That is a sweet range, gentlemen. I really renjoyed watching this. And I have a new-found appreciation for early, single shot long guns and the people that used them.

[@cheesenoodles8316]

The MAS36 was my favorite. All of them were cool.

[@ryanniksch4174]

Fantastic seeing the two of you in all divisions i new you would blast me out of the water but was not expecting you to half my times and then still come back and do a humiliation run! Very inspirational thank you

[@pghgb5572]

The MAS36 action looked smooth, as did the loading with stripper clips. Well done both.

[@thebotrchap]

It is remarkably smooth. The only irritating thing is that the stripper clips don’t fall/flip out unless you force the bolt and wreck them.

[@pghgb5572]

@@thebotrchap I guess there was no expectation that the soldiers would need them again.

[@thebotrchap]

@@pghgb5572Yup, made from soft aluminum.

[@aethelstanaegen36]

Chap has the nicest Egyptian rolling block I've seen. Very cool

[@thebotrchap]

I have a full vid on it on the channel if you want to know more 😊

[@simonjones6128]

Good job chappie and mikey Love the weather front moving in from the west. Clouds ⛅️

[@robertl6196]

I do love the Bubba Schuetzen rifle.

[@benstoyles1297]

The chap should stick to rifles produced before 1900. I've never a seen a man so at peace as he is single loading.

[@thebotrchap]

You're not wrong 😅

[@pghgb5572]

Is Rob at @Britishmuzzleloaders a long lost brother?

[@gorbalsboy]

Well done the lads ,that was really enjoyable and to those who think it looks simple ,easy ,it ain't!grand stuff😊

[@PLAYINGAROUND]

Chap: Cool on the Range. Bloke: Excuse on the Range 😉😁. I now have more excuses to add to my own long list 😉🤣.

[@samikoivisto7705]

Those AR-10 prongs have a nice ringing sound.

[@cedhome7945]

There should be extra points for the oddest and most obscure rifles and calibres 😁

[@18robsmith]

The Chappie would have a very unfair advantage......

[@mikethomas5510]

👍 Rolling block & AR10 in one vid!👍

[@3DVIDEOSMurray]

"Its not about speed, its about grace" lol truer words have not been spoken. Got to be comfortable, got to enjoy the experience.

[@wrxs1781]

Well done lads, a very enjoyable video.

[@carlkulyk366]

Great fun

[@FG42]

Every time someone pulls the trigger on a Sudanese ar10 I expect a pile of extra parts to be added to the market. Perhaps all the ones that were going to have catastrophic disassembly have already done so. I have never seen it happen but I have more exploded Sudanese bolts and uppers that I have ever seen intact rifles.

[@alexanderboldt5937]

The acorn got me 😂😂

[@mediocrefunkybeat]

I get the feeling that Bloke might be mildly competitive.

[@GrumpyGenXGramps]

We all got one of those friends. LOL Chap’s just chillin along shooting cool shit for the sake of shooting. LOL

[@BlokeontheRange]

Moi? Never 😆

[@Tallus_ap_Mordren]

Chap is the last bolt-action hero. Mike, have you seen the new Henry Supreme levergun that takes STANAG mags?

[@BlokeontheRange]

I've seen it, yes! I'm actually more interested in the Fightlight and the other one that are completely modern styled though.

[@Tallus_ap_Mordren]

@@BlokeontheRange I am too, but they are still in beta, and the Henry is theoretically available next month...

[@barbarousfellow]

I wonder if a scout scope would work better with loading that martini

[@BlokeontheRange]

Oh certainly

[@thebeardprevails5246]

was that a 'ready, standby, acorn!'? 🤣

[@BlokeontheRange]

Yes, it may have been teasingly topical 😇

[@1982rrose]

​@@BlokeontheRangeisn't that just a police thing?

[@zetazane]

@@BlokeontheRange should have done a few "tactical rolls"

[@GrumpyGenXGramps]

Watch out for those acorns! They’re NUTS!!

[@88porpoise]

Was hoping Bloke would find an AR for every class.

[@BlokeontheRange]

I could have shot the straight pull in division 3 indeed! 😅

[@Voelund]

No Frankenrifle?

[@BlokeontheRange]

Nope, I've still not fixed the butt after Lynx and the CZ 600 Trail outperforms it on the handling / ergonomics front.

[@JohnTBlock]

Very nice range facility. Nothing that good here, that the State would pay for, Dammit! The Swiss have some priorities right!

[@Terrato45]

"Acorn!" 🤣

[@ohioslacker]

Right, so if it's 100 meters away why is it an 8 inch target?

[@BlokeontheRange]

Cos mixing units is fun. There's a reason for it though, when the competition was started, 8" was a standard target used in Canada

[@1982rrose]

Isn't Chap rather tactical for a Swiss range?

[@thebotrchap]

It’s just a plain green jacket 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@BlokeontheRange]

Possibly the use of the plate bags and placard to hold your mags?

[@StacheMan26]

RIP finger, but good show nonetheless

[@AJMBLAZER]

Acorn!

[@zoiders]

LOP on the HS is a bit on the slender man side. Can you ditch that plastic butt plate and riser?

[@thebotrchap]

LOP is adjustable and set up for my anatomy.

[@hairydogstail]

A heavier AR would have been more stable. The WWSD rifle is great for carry but is too light for stable shooting..I prefer an open sights up to a 100 yards which is where the AK and Wich lever dominate..You did pretty good for a Brit :) Nice to see there are still some original Armatlites out in the world..Thanks for sharing..

[@BlokeontheRange]

Thanks. To be honest I don't think I'd have done better with the 20" HBAR, the thing is that it's always a compromise with that kind of shooting, and I prefer lighter. Heavy gets tiring really, really quickly and isn't necessarily more stable as a result. But with the LPVO and Triggercam on it, the WWSD not all as light as it is when I shoot SRA / Brutality with it.

[@hairydogstail]

Too bad you can't use a sling, which is the way we shoot when hunting in Montana..It is amazingly stable for those standing long shots..@@BlokeontheRange

[@BlokeontheRange]

You can use a sling in the "hasty sling" configuration but it's not actually supportive when standing unsupported, and it's a pain to deal with under this level of time pressure in the other positions, the time you spend faffing with it isn't made up for with the increased stability. And I grew up sling-dependent due to the type of shooting I was doing as a teenager so used to use a sling all the time whether it really made sense or not.

[@hairydogstail]

Not the way I did it..Put your arm through it, rap once, put elbow into stomach and presto, it is a tight, stable shooting platform..@@BlokeontheRange
