Greetings from the Panhandle of Texas

Hello!

I am from the Panhandle region of Texas and have recently gotten into longer distance shooting. I've been very into shooting for several years now but only recently have I started trying to make shots beyond 300 yards or so. Until now, it has mostly been plinking at the range or night shoots under night vision with friends.

With my new job, I now have access to a range that goes all the way out to 1600 yards so I can finally get into some real long distance shooting! A couple of my coworkers are also very into PRS style shooting and I have the itch now.

For now I'm making do with my 5.56 AR build as I continue to learn and refine my skills. I plan on purchasing my first true long range setup soon, though! I'm really just deciding on an optic at this point - 5-25 Mk5 HD, 4-32 NX8, or go all out and get the 7-35 ATACR. I've been very, very happy with my 1-8 NX8 so I'm currently leaning toward the 4-32 NX8 most but might spring for a Mk5 if I find a solid deal.

Here are some pics from my most recent range trip. Nothin like shooting off the caprock of Texas!

SOLD Bone bipod with picatinny adapter

Bought this at SCI to try out. Great bipod but I like standardized rifles so I’m letting it go. It has rubber feet that remove with spike under them. Quick deploy legs with 8 positions for length and 5 for angle. One rubber cup I got too aggressive with and broke the rubber strap holding it to the leg. Doesn’t hurt performance.
These are an Austrian setup that retail around $550 with the adapter. I gave $400 for a show special. Will sell for $200 shipped.

First adventure with a BR family cartridge - impressed so far

This is my first adventure with a BR family cartridge and so far I'm super impressed. I had a spare Bartlein heavy varmint barrel chambered in 6 CM (by SPR) for my main PRS rifle laying around so I decided to send it back to SPR to re-chamber it for 6mm BRA. I only lost 1.40 inches of barrel length, so it is now 24.6 inches instead of my normal 26 inch preference. This is also my first use of Peterson brass and Berger bullets. I can say I'm very happy thus far with only 70 rounds down the barrel and with zero load development.

The targets below were shot two different days. The targets to the left of the black sharpie mark were 3/28 which also included scope adjustments. The targets to the right of the black sharpie mark were 3/31 and no scope adjustments. The farthest right group had a weird issue. The CCI 450 primer wouldn't ignite. I had to cycle the bolt over a dozen times before it finally ignited, which ended up making that group just over 1 moa. I guess I was ticked off and not set. Had a real nice group going on that one until the primer issue. In all my years of using CCI primers, this is the first time one didn't work. WTF?

I'll have a triple scoop of irony with some irony on top, served in an irony cone!!!


The longer you read, the funnier it gets... rapper Young Scooter? Not getting any older? On his birthday? Scooting from police? When he jumps a fence, breaks his leg (while scooting) and dies suddenly?

Betting that if they'd opened the door and turned the stereo down... he'd be alive today!!!

Always thought he did a great version of "At the Hop!"

And if he had learned to hop... he'd also be alive today!

I'll have my irony "To go." Like, out the back door. Doing an impression of Jesse Owens! Who, for the record, was a runner though won gold in the Long Jump. See, if Little had been a pole vaulter or a hurdler... he'd also be alive today.

Like I said... it's just gets funnier...
