EBR 2017 - Winning rifle?

RAW, Crown, Impact are just rifles with winning potential. Let's not get all obsessed with which inanimate object wins..it's all about the shooter. Who has put 10's of thousands of rounds downrange and goes out of their way to practice in horrible conditions? Obviously Ted is one, but whoever wins will earn it with their skills and could win with ANY of the above rifles. Can't wait to find out!

Hey Brian I here what your saying there not all shooting the same rifles or even the same caliber. 
You could say there are half a dozen very competitive shooters all with the skill to win and the one with the edge with equipment will win. 
 
Top five spots will have RAW, FX and Thomas in it. I will also predict that top five will have 30cal, 25cal and 22cal in it. Unless we have unusually calm sessions we will not see any perfect 250's scored at 75 or 100. You will need to shoot in the mid 240's to advance to the finals and you will need to shoot in the upper 240's to win the final in either class, guessing the winning score for the pro class will be 248. If it's windy it'll all come down to who gets what bench draw...
