    In these “Person Specific” threads, I am asking for a sharing of information regarding teachings, accomplishments, anecdotes, first-hand-experiences, and the like. Simply pertaining to the individual named in the title.

    I intend for a separate thread for each separate person, and in no way is this to turn into anything other than respectful and pertinent statements and stories about the shooter. If you want to talk about someone not named in a thread, PM me and I’ll start another. At the same time, disparaging comments, wrong remarks and the like, WILL be removed.

    This is intended to turn into a compendium of information of each marksman, because not everything is published, nor has everything been disclosed that has since been “unclassified”. Ya’ll know right from wrong, so let’s all make these threads GREAT.

    If we are lucky, the possibility exists for “those who are still alive” to add in their two cents. THAT luxury is not afforded very often. Hence why I want this to be kept “on point”. Thank you.

    Nick was a co-instructor of an advanced sniper skills course I took at Rifles Only in 2012.
    He was extremely patient with the shooters and was the epitome of a quiet professional.

    I've spoken to him several times this year, he's a legit guy. He knows his way around a sniper rifle and has an excellent reputation for being professional.

    Nick is a great guy. He's got a couple of really good books about LRPS on Amazon. Good stuff.

    The reaper is a legit guy. He's really personable (on social media) I've never met him but have spoken to him many times. He has an action up switch barrel build coming up soon that is gonna be insane.

    I would love to talk to, or be able to e-mail him. It would be interesting to see what is going on now in the Rgr. Bats as far as sniping vs. the primitive re-introduction to a modern sniping program we were pushing when I was in.
