If you're in the market for a Yeti cooler and don't mind the color burgundy...

REI is selling a handful of Yeti's in "Wild Vine Red" aka burgundy at better than the usual prices.

Seems that they have... the Tundra (both 35 & 45), the Hopper Flip 8 & 12, Hopper M20, and Roadie 24 at the clearance price for that color (about 20% off). No knowledge of how much they have in stock that they're trying to liquidate from their inventory (might go quick might go for a couple of days).

Anywho- I thought it was a decent price and wanted to share. I reckon that similar deals would be able to be found from other retailers as well.

Hope that's of help to someone here on the Hide that's been holding out for a sale.

Is it possible to become a really skilled long range shooter with a semi-auto?

Hello Everyone,

I’ve been researching mid- to long-range shooting and I’m curious about the potential for developing skill with a semi-automatic .308 match-grade rifle. My understanding is that bolt-action rifles are generally preferred for long-range accuracy due to their inherent stability and consistency, but I’m interested in knowing if it’s possible to achieve similar levels of proficiency with a semi-auto platform, especially in the mid- to long-range (300 to 1,000 yards).

Specifically, I’d like to know:
  1. Is it possible to consistently hit targets at these distances (300-1,000 yards) with a semi-auto .308, given that I would be using match-grade ammunition?
  2. What are the key factors that would contribute to becoming skilled in this discipline with a semi-auto rifle? (e.g., barrel quality, trigger control, optics, training, etc.)
  3. How much of a challenge is it to manage recoil, follow-up shots, and maintain accuracy with a semi-auto compared to bolt-action rifles at long range?
I’m looking to understand whether it’s realistic to pursue this type of shooting with a semi-auto rifle, and if so, what would be the best practices for improving accuracy and consistency over longer distances. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your input!

So Canada is going to boycott the USA?


39 million population and what… 20 percent will engage in boycott?

That’s less Than the population of Manhattan…

Quaking in my boots…. Damn, I might have to pay an extra quarter for poutine…. Not that I’d eat that nasty stuff.

Puh-leeze…. Their sovereignty? I can’t believe they even have delusions of global relevance….

Go to sheriff to file assault complaint

Login to view embedded media
Poor fucker goes to sheriff office to report being assaulted by deputy and then gets beat up by sheriff and the cheif of police. And then of course arrested and charged with harassment, resisting arrest and public intoxication.
Of course none of those charges stick because the man was smart enough to record while in the presence of thugs .
The location and phone number for this department are in the video - wouldn’t be a shame if 2-3 thousand people called to tell them how heroic they are ?

New Jug Syndrome

I have a load that I use for about 300 shots already, measuring speed with garmin chrono almost of each shot.
Got stable 2608 average speed in temperature condition I am in.

This time speed went down to 2575 average, about 32 lower for 10 rounds I shot and measure.

Did exactly same brass preparations, I would consider no changes there as it's works for me for the rifle stable for last 6 months for sure.
The only difference was a new jug of powder I just opened.

Powder is StaBALL Match

Someone told me that he have it with Retumbo, with a new jug he just opened he had lower speed for the first batch of rounds.
And than even loads loaded next day don't have it, speed for the next batch of rounds comeback to normal.

And I realized that I seen it couple weeks ago with StaBALL HD, I am doing load development and for a new jug just opened and loaded cartridges I seen speed is lower, but wasn't sure if it's me did something wrong.

Does anyone having the same issues before? Maybe it's known issues I just not be aware of?
Looks like it's makes sense to open a new jug day before I gonna do powder measuring and pouring and bullet seating.

This little faggot just wont go away…


If anyone thinks the Democommies learned anything from their stunning defeat… things like respect for the Constitution and get the radicals out…. Ah hahhhha…

So their vice chair is radical communist so -of deep state… never did anything in his life but show up and bray on about guns are bad…

Tells you what their future targets are. They are going full in on destroying g the 2a and putting the retard millenial radicals at the helm.

I can’t wait until they find out he has been didling kids and has a massive child porn stash. Oh wait… he is Democrat Royalty. He’ll get away with it.

Appleseed Sucking

I went out to the range today and at the end of the session I shot an AQT target for funsies and wow, I'm rusty.

AQT marked shots.jpeg


I still got an "expert" score but compared to the last time I shot this target I was down over 20 points and I was exhibiting bad habits, so it'll just have to be something I work on. I'm thinking about putting a red dot on the rifle, since I tend to shoot red dots better. Does anyone have any experience with these mounts?
