ORIGINAL: longrifle1000

When I was 18, I had to have the biggest rifle I could find. Started with a 338 win mag, moved up to a 375 H&H, and by the time I was 19 I was shooting a single shot 50 BMG. At the range I shot at, the rangemaster was an old family friend and he always messed with me. On Saturdays when the range was full, as soon as I would set down at a bench, he would announce over the PA in a rather loud tone, "longrifle at the bench, fire in the hole". The nickname longrifle stuck. When I went to sign up here, that was taken so I tacked 1000 on the end.
