Seriously,
If you are what you say I think a lot of folks here would enjoy and learn from you.
Your current topic is simply dated and too basic to be of much if any interest. The 7 yard issue is foolish to even the most inexperienced folks on this site.
If you come with experience, current info of high quality you could be an asset to this site and a popular poster.
Don’t forget your audience. Lot of very experienced operators here. Lot of enthused and very sharp amateurs as well.
Quite a few folks who know nothing like me as well.
I am exactly what I have shared that I am.
I would appreciate the ability to share with those willing and desirous to learn.
I understand that you feel that my topic is dated and too basic. I agree with you completely. It is dated and too basic - except for those who are new to long range precision marksmanship and who purchased a non-MIL/non-Duplex style reticle.
I have provided instruction to with those who have these style reticles and I have received DMs from individuals that thank me for the information (as basic and outdated as it is) that I have provided.
To note, those that are quite well experienced may find nothing of use in my posts. I understand that. But these posts are not intended for those individuals. These posts are intended for those who have had access to but very little information, have very little skill and very little experience in long range precision marksmanship.
I would venture to say, however, that there may be some experienced shooters who might find one or two things of interest in my posts. Maybe. Maybe not.
Rth1800, I appreciate your manner of addressing this series and the offerings. You are polite, professional and concise. We may not necessarily agree, but I can tell you that you have garnered a great deal of respect from me in what you've written.
I would offer this as well. As far as long range precision marksmanship... I am a very basic type person. I'm a tactician. I utilize the instrument provided in order to achieve an objective. There is nothing that I am doing that is ultra secret or cutting edge. I was taught and employ(ed) the basics.
I did once read something that said this though: "Excellence is Mastery of the Basics."
As far as there being, "Quite a few folks who know nothing like me as well." I have a very sneaky suspicion that you are quite well versed in a litany of topics... including Long Range Precision Marksmanship.
In closing, the topics will get a little more in depth than the basics... of course that's a matter of perspective. I don't mean to offend anyone if they are too basic. I'll make adjustments as I can and as long as I stay within my actual capability.
Thank you for writing in.
Respectfully,
-Krieger
