    Maggie’s What Is It Going To Take To Stop The Madness?

    History repeatedly tells us what's going to happen eventually. Do what you can to prevent it, but enjoy the ride.

    Rifle Scopes High End Optics comparison from Kinetics Security Solutions

    Cool test. Yet another reason to not "trade up" my ATACRs.

    Rifle Competition Events Best region for PRS matches

    Rocky Mountain West. The terrain is out of this world, and between WYCO and WPRL, we are very spoiled.

    Advanced Marksmanship Lying to Ourselves About What Makes a Difference.

    Most people don't want to put the effort into excelling into anything they do. You aren't going to change them, and will just get shit on for suggesting training to improve. Everyone has a different world view, and most of the world could not care less who the top shooters in each discipline...

    Rifle Competition Events What would you change or do differently with current competitions/organizations?

    I have no plans to shoot anything but WYCO and WPR matches for the foreseeable future. I have shot club matches with these guys for years before Luke and Pete started the two leagues. They are doing it right, and I can shoot shoot most of both leagues' venues within a couple of hours drive. I...

    Riton X7 Conquer owners

    I had a Mod7 4-32x56IR fail me at a match. The turret locked up, and the zero reset to 9 mils low. I sent it back, got the new updated X7 version, and the parallax was crap right out of the box. Everything was blurry at all settings on the adjustment knob, except for a 1/4" window. Sent it back...

    anyone shooting Remington 260?

    No, there is zero reason to build a 260 anymore, unless you just want one.

    Hog saddle vs arca Mount.

    Arca is best, but the saddle will fit more guns. I have two tripods, one with an Anvil-30, and the other with a saddle for this exact reason. The Anvil-30 goes to matches, the saddle goes to the field.

    Best Caliber to Learn Long Range Shooting

    Since you are wanting to shoot precision rifle matches, I would get a 6.5 Creedmoor and be done. It will be competitive, unlike a 308 (so you won't be discouraged, and quit after a match or two), factory ammo is plentiful, barrel life is great, known load data, etc. You can rebarrel to any of...

    Physical Fitness Effective joint supplements

    Yeah. I have calmed down quite a bit. I bested my 18 year old son's deadlift record, then realized I'm not 25 anymore. I concentrate on form, moderate weight (except leg press, which I still do heavy weight) and reps now. I use my belt, do warm ups to get my form, etc. That is good advice.

    Physical Fitness Effective joint supplements

    Do you notice a difference? I've had friends that switched, and they like the Krill oil better for various reasons.

    Physical Fitness Effective joint supplements

    Lose some ass. Fish oil and turmeric have me back to normal doing heavy squats and packing in the mountains after my ACL replacement, and meniscus repair. Also, motion is lotion. Keep moving, that helps alot.

    Which do you prefer?

    Yeah, I'm in Wyoming, so I understand the geography. I guess we are just lucky to have two precision rifle leagues up here.

    Which do you prefer?

    There aren't any club level matches in your area? Hell, a majority of the precision rifle matches around here are one day club matches by a vast majority. There usually 2-3 a month within a couple of hours from my house. We have to travel for two day PRS/NRL matches.

    Recommended Chassis and Barrell for a light hunting rifle

    Yep. Most of us in my circle have tried the Hybrid Competition/hunting rifle thing and it isn't really great at either task. It isn't heavy enough to be competitive and has too much recoil due to cartridge selection and being lighter than practical, and they end up being a tad heavy and a bunch...

    Which do you prefer?

    I prefer shooting precision rifle, and gave up USPSA. In my area, there is comraderie and long term friendships amongst us that travel around to shoot locally and outside of the area. It seemed to me that USPSA and Three gun lost that a while back. I know almost everyone in a three state area...

    25-06 vs 6.5 Creedboys

    Did I just stumble into the Field & Stream FB page? When I'm bored, I enjoy reading the Fuddtastic comment section. It's good for a chuckle, but also sad to know most gun owners can't shoot, nor understand ballistics.
