Hi Everybody! Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.
I came across this forum from others in the u/longrange sub over at reddit. I haven't really been much of a forum guy for years because frankly, most are not very mobile phone friendly. So far I have been able to lurk here for a while and took the plunge, even purchasing a scope recently off of here! I look forward to learning from the group and gain some knowledge and just have some fun while I am here. The big reason I am here is because I am taking some steps to shooting long range. I have been a gun lover for give or take 34 years (since a young child). My dad is the reason, as he had a gun store in my hometown basement when I was growing up. He still loves to hunt and shoot, and still works on everybodys guns up there and reloads for several.
I took the plunge into long range with a Howa 1500 barrelled action off Brownells that has a 24" bull barrel, chambered in 6.5CM. Once it is all assembled, it will also have the following: MDT bolt knob, Harris bipod, Athlon Ares ETR scope, Vortex low pro level. I have it all ready to roll, just gotta get after the relaods and get everything mounted once it is in!
