We see these at my club's range, being somewhat of an epicenter for benchrest enthusiasts. Many of our members have held world records in various classes at various distances.

Anyway, pretty cool stuff, but one might question its practicality:

I haven't actually seen one but have heard people talk about them. Small bore aren't they? Guys talking about single hole groups with them.
