    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    Putin needs to die. Just so there is no confusion of who I am speaking of. If you do not know why, I cannot help.

    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    Yes, "neutral" is a bit of a joke. That is why I put it in quotes. It is as defined by Russia.

    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    With all due respect, you are disconnected from reality.

    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    I disagree. I think Putin is concerned that this could get embarrassing. The Ukrainian insurgence will go on forever if Russia stays there. Afghanistan vs. USSR in the 1980's all over again... I think he will negotiate for Ukraine to become "neutral" like Belarus.

    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    Not all of this work will be done by "Special Forces". Some will be private citizens doing their own freelance work. Some stuff will show-up eventually. Whoever they may be, best wishes to them.

    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    This site is the "Sniper's Hide" yet we have no discussion/footage/photos of actual wartime snipers engaging in their craft? I guarantee there are Ukrainian precision riflemen (and women) doing some good work in numerous locales.

    Is something going on in Ukraine?

    Nobody would need to order me to "take up arms" in such a situation. However, our president is our president and, of course, I would respond properly.

    Trainer build

    I think it is the way to go. I have 3 custom rifles: 6.5 x 47, 6mm GT, and .223. I don't really treat the .223 as a trainer. It is my low-cost, fun rifle, and I can shoot it in tactical classes of competition. I run a 1:7" twist 28" MTU contour Criterion barrel and shoot 80 grain...

    Muzzle Brake for .223 or go "naked"?

    This is a precision bolt-action rifle with a 26" barrel. This is not an AR platform. A flash hider is useless and has no application here.

    Muzzle Brake for .223 or go "naked"?

    Since it is already threaded, I would put a brake on it. However, if you were to do it again, I'd save the cost of muzzle threading (and a brake) and go with a heavier barrel and 2" longer. In your case, you could run a 28" heavy varmint contour. The rifle would be about the same length as a...

    Is Primer (and other components) Cost/Supply Keeping Folks from Competing?

    Yep, my custom bolt .223 get lots of use while my 6 GT and 6.5 x 47 Lapua sit more.

    Is Primer (and other components) Cost/Supply Keeping Folks from Competing?

    It would not surprise me if we get reduced participation due to the high cost of competing. Unless you are sponsored well, this game is getting really expensive. I'm really reducing my matches as a result. Thoughts?

    Competing Less Due to Cost/Availability of Reloading Components?

    I reload 3 different centerfire cartridges. It seems to be slowly getting better. I have not purchased anything at inflated prices which means I have not purchased anything since about last October.

    Competing Less Due to Cost/Availability of Reloading Components?

    I have not been that motivated to compete this year due to cost of reloading components. I have found other things to fill my "hobby time" that don't break the bank. I will wait for things to calm down and then slowly return. Anyone else in the same boat?
