Hello Everyone,
I'm Josh, currently residing in Pueblo Colorado. I am a 10 year infantry vet, who never got to do any cool long-range stuff. I managed to shoot distinguished on my Bradley as a Specialist and got stuck mechanized most of my career. I finally am starting to get into the longer-range precision world. I bought a howa 1500 in 308 20in heavy barrel off of one of my old soldiers who wasn't doing the best financially after getting out. I called my dad up an old 18 series with a bravo 4 identifier, I told him about my purchase. He told me good luck falling down this rabbit hole. Oh, boy was he right. I purchased a vortex pst 2 mrad, from what I read is a best bang for your buck optic on a few websites. I had my gunsmith set everything up. I finally got it semi-zeroed with cheap pmc ammo. I went shooting at Cheyenne mountain shooting complex for the zero. The guy next to me noticed me sucking lol. He gave me a few pointers, and suggested I join this website. That it has the most subject matter experts on anything long-range/precision. I will say I loved it. Something about working a bolt, zeroing, it was just like this peaceful harmony. I can see this will become addicting. I look forward to learning and gaining knowledge from you all, and hopefully attending a shooting course one day to help me learn more.
