I know the BPCR guys are shooting 5-600 yds with 45-70's and stuff, never read the rules to what they do, or followed the discipline steadily though. Can't think of a good reason it can't be done with a 38-55, I vaguely remember it being talked about in the CBA or ASSRA circles, but they thought the 38-55 was too light for consistency. But, IIRC, people were trying it to keep the recoil punishment manageable. I expect there are threads in the CBA about it. Haven't read that site in a long time, as Firefox doesn't let me go there because of certificates. I am pretty sure Rman is not the only one out there doing it.
Why not? If you have the time and energy and patience and determination to do it, and the place to do it, go for it. To do it with the equipt he used, is a handicap, that makes doing it even more fun when it works for you.
