Another new member here, although admittedly Ive been lurking for some time now. Im currently doing Explosive Detection Dog work in Iraq for the the US DOS as a contractor. My background is in Law Enforcement, mostly K9 for about 12 years and the last couple in contracting. A friend got me interested in the LR game while in the department several years ago. Spent some money on a rifle and a MK4 to get started. Had another longtime friend mentor me in learning to reload and the obsession took hold. Recently set up a 1K yd range and invested in a new NF NXS. Had the boys at Gunwerks/G7 build me a turret for a custom load and away I went. Having never had a place to shoot at anything over +-400 yards, you can imagine the feeling when I rang my first gong at 1000!!! And I thought Turkey hunting was addictive. Now decided to upgrade my barrel/stock with a local smith friend on my LTR and thinking of jumping in on the group buy with Chad Dixon for the Rem 700 Tactical I picked up to build. Great site by the way, I have spent many hours on it over here and have just scratched the surface.
