Shooter from western South Dakota here. Gun enthusiast and work in the ammunition industry. Looking to learn about precision and get my feet wet in long range shooting. I have a multitude of professional marksman as well as competitors in my area, but understand the benefit of different point of views from different areas of experience.
Purchased a Bergara B14 HMR 20” in .308 to start out. As recommended by a former Marine Corp sniper, I also have some Steiner T-series Extra High 30mm rings on the way (why he recommended those rings specifically, I’m not sure). Planning on purchasing a Vortex Viper PST Gen 2 5-25x50 in the near future. Am also shopping around for a rugged and durable 20 moa base, as I plan for this to be a “hard use” entry rifle. By that I mean that I shoot in mountainous terrain where the rifle may see rough conditions from time to time.
Hope this is close to how these introduction posts are supposed to go.
