I hadn't seen these posted here before but it appears Rob Ski has a new channel on YT showing off some very nice vintage rifles in action. I found the vids were entertaining and thought you all might enjoy.

Going to be shooting with Rob at an upcoming shoot in Paris Tenn. He is a great guy and really likes his sniper rifles.

Really enjoyed watching those videos.
Crazy that he sourced period correct ammo.

While I’ve cut back on my FB usage, I’d love to join that Vintage Sniper Rifle group, but it appears to be listed as “secret” (not publicly searchable). Any way I could request an invite somehow?
Looks like his team won the modern sniper championship match with an L42a1 today.
I searched "Vintage & modern sniper rifle" in the face of book. it didnt pop up any groups or anything either but I scrolled down and the group showed up futher down the page in the searches that partially match and I requested to join.
I think next spring I will have a match geared towards tac class, AR, and mil surp rifles. Ill keep everyone posted. this stuff is too fun.
GL!

It's a really fun match. You can see some stuff you don't really see that often, if ever. Lots of different collectors shoot odd stuff.
I am one of the guys who runs the vintage sniper match and modern sniper matches in Henry County where robski filmed one of these videos.. someone above requested access to our FB page on vintage sniper where a lot of our match results, pics, upcoming events and show and tell; If you are interested you can email me. [email protected] ... the way I have had to get folks in before was to friend me on FB (odd and creepy i know) then send a invite to you. I guess you could de-friend me after.. then the administrator of the group ok's the acceptance and you get access. No gun sales only because FB is goofy like that.
I watched that one earlier, I thought it was great. It was funny when he started to get wordy and the camerawoman basically told him to shut up and shoot lol.

Looking forward to when my L42A1 clone is finished.
Part of me wishes I'd bought a real one that was offered, but my Babe scares me more than the desire to purchase.
