I was going to say the one in the yellow shirt - because he is definitely compensating for something! (Maybe windage?).However, the guy on the extreme right reminds me of Will Smith holding his "cricket" in Men in Black.Anyway, awesome pic.Remind me to show you my gun collection some time.

Not at all.... standard fare for the sport. Shoot from a sitting position, nothing can support the gun except you. 55 yards, put a pellet through a 1" hole. 10 yards, .25" hole. Everything in between. The difficulty can't be imagined until you try it. All the gizmos on that Yellow Guy's gun are purely functional. The scope on it alone was probably close to a grand. BB guns have progressed.

I was watching Top Shot on cable the other day - I was surprised how much compensation was needed due to a light wind, and that was with rifle bullets.
