Hi everyone from Tennessee!

I just wanted to take a moment and introduce myself. I am Noisy and I am from Tennessee. I have been shooting long range well for not that long but I practice probably every other weekend. I have access to about 100 yards not much but enough that I go out and learn. My main education is from watching videos online, taking the training material and going and trying to apply it. So there is a lot of trial and error but I have learned how to sight my scope in and I started with targets at 100 yards that were about 7x6 inches and have worked my way down to shooting softballs and clay pigeons. This September I am going to be taking an actual class so I am pretty excited about that.

I am shooting with the following:
- Savage Axis 2 6.5 Creedmoor and a Mossberg Patriot 6.5 Creedmoor with a Athlon 8-34x56 scope on both.

I am still very new to this and looking to see what I can learn off the forums. Any tips and advice is always welcome.

I have a lightly used ThunderBeast 338SR gen 1 with one brake for 5/8-24. The round count is very low but dose have a few marks. It's on a form 3 and ready to ship out when it clears. Asking $1,575 dropped to $1,475 shipped. dropped to $1,350 shipped
$1,325 shipped ( last drop)

Or open to trades.
Full weighted matrix pro or lapua 22ammo.

22ammo.

BNIB never mounted

Just thinking out loud here so humor me:

If my tripod is collapsed and stowed on my pack such that it is set to a kneeling height to quickly deploy is that okay? If this is the length I kept it during regular hunting for quick deployment would it not be representing how I actually hunt? And finally to complete this thought, if my 3-section tripod is stowed at the same length as a longer 2 section--shouldn't that be allowed? The rules read fully collapsed, but does a guy seriously have to buy a 2 section gamer tripod when he could just keep his 3 section at the same deployment length?

I own 2 different RRS tripods, an Ascent and a 34 (both with anvil-30's)--so this question does not stem from a financial view--more of a common sense question.

Thoughts?

I have a used Vudoo Gen II with a 22” MTU 11 degree crown. Comes with 4 mags. 2 Vudoo Polly mags 1 L3I stinger, and 1 L3I Elite mag.
$SOLD shipped to your FFL.

Is Lapua or Alpha worth the premium? Just getting into 6.5CM and need to stock up on brass. Can get starline for about half the price.

On New Year's Eve, a friend of mine sent me some photos and video his son had shot. His son works in Manhattan, and he photographed a cop (hopefully) with a big ol' sniper rifle.

My understanding is that this thing is a Sako which costs about $12,000 before glass. That's the price for people who actually pay for it, although these guns were provided to the NYPD in a high-profile transaction, so maybe they got a deal.

My question: if Chris Kyle got by with a $6,500 rifle, why did the NYPD need this Sako?

I checked Sako's website, and it looks like it's full of sales BS, but I am no sniper.

They say this thing can be worked on by the user. Well, I work on my guns just fine, and I am incapable of real gunsmithing. And police departments have unions that would never go for taking work away from full-time armorers.

They say you can swap the barrel for different jobs. If you can afford a $12,000 gun, can't you afford more guns and leave the barrels where they are? Maybe I'm ignorant, but what professional sniper wants to swap barrels after he gets his gun just right? It makes no sense to me. How would you keep your zero? And if you have to swap barrels before leaving the station, doesn't it mean you're an incompetent who has no idea what the mission is? Shouldn't you have all that stuff figured out before the call comes?

The whole thing mystifies me. You can walk into Bass Pro and buy a reliable 0.75-MOA rifle whenever you want, so what is the purpose of this thing? No cop needs more accuracy than that.

Okay, tell me why I'm wrong. I just put my flameproof socks on.

AW mag used I was gonna go with that but I just ended up with a R700

90$ shipped. SOLD

Thinning the herd and getting rid of a couple of redundant rifles in my arsenal.

-Bergara Premier action (the Q needs top r700 profile for it to work, which Bergara has) with upgraded AI style boltknob.
-Proof Stainless Steel Barrel .243 1:7.5 Med Palma barrel chambered by Southwest action works, finished at 18”, threaded 5/8x24.

2000$ shipped to your FFL in lower 48, price is firm so don’t even ask, if it doesn’t sell I’ll keep it, don’t need the money. If you want a TT curved field trigger for some reason, I have one I can swap in.
The only thing you’re not getting is the TBAC brake, keeping that for my can.

If you haven’t had a vasectomy, be extremely careful, your old lady might get pregnant when she sees the groups this thing prints.
400 rounds on barrel, 108eldms at 2915fps.
You get the load data with h4350 and 200 pieces of 2x fired (out of this rifle obviously) lapua brass for free.
Rifle weighs 8.2# on my scale, obviously add 35oz for the optic with tier one mount. Lockup on the folding hinge is amazing.

Trades: NV/Thermal related items +- cash, or high end scopes with T3, specifically looking for S&B 5-20 T3/T5 Ultra Short, I’d trade straight across for that. Would consider another mk5 3-18 with T3 or NF atacr 4-20 w/T3 as well.

This is the latest random power trip from the almighty mods at r/longrange. The cognitive dissonance is astounding. Apparently a lightweight hybrid rifle is only acceptable if you're pretending to hunt at an NRLH comp., otherwise you're a complete idiot for even considering it. Then there's the relentless parroting and hivemind that the anonymity of the internet offers. And the constant cucking for the mods as if they're God's gift to the shooting sports. Who even are the mods and why should anyone listen to them. Don't get me started on the insecure douche that is lockybalboaprime. They should really change the name to r/PRScirclejerk. Am I the only one that just can't stand that group anymore?

I just bought and cerakoted a new MDT LSS XL chassis and am considering the MDT wood grip. The action is Howa 6.5 C.
I've really grown to like the vertical grip on the old Howa APC chassis. The MDT grip is canted more like the AR style but not so much.
The wood grip would compliment the paint job so... just thinking about it.
Does anyone have an opinion either way ?
thx

'We will not follow an unconstitutional order'​

Illinois Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker bashed President Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants.

"That’s unconstitutional. We will not follow an unconstitutional order," Pritzker told reporters on Monday while speaking at an unrelated event, Politico reported.

Trump's order, "Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship," asserts that the 14th Amendment of the Constitution does not automatically confer American citizenship to individuals who are born within the United States.

The amendment states: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Some legal experts have said that such a move is a constitutional change and cannot be made by executive order. The move will almost certainly face a challenge in court from civil rights groups and immigration activists.

Trump advisers and some conservative legal scholars have previously argued that the idea of giving birthright citizenship to children of illegal immigrants is based on a misreading of the amendment.

another idea that might have some benefit due to all the immigration of both kinds that we are putting up with. make English the formal,official language of the US.
ALL gov paper work,comp work,signage,phone work,road signs etc in English,nothing else. companies,states,counties,cities that refuse to do so can be sanctioned in some way.
i really don't know; but reading,writing and speaking in English should be mandatory for citizenship if it isn't already. i mean real literacy and fluency. no more press 1 for English ever. if this is required to do call center work in India it can be required to obtain citizenship here.

Hey hide,
I have a 82a1 and went out west with it. Was getting light strikes on 80% of my ammo, put the rounds back in and all went bang. Sent it off to Barrett, they checked headspace and replaced the sear spring. Got it back, shot 6 rounds though it, now it's doing it again. I shot 3 types of ammo, match Hornady, match thunder ammo, and ball ammo. All of them had light strikes every round. Tried to put them back in, again wouldn't fire.
Any suggestions?
I also found this firing pin spring in it which looks like it's missing some coils. Not sure if that could be an issue or if this is how they look.

Jackson Reffitt / CNN
Texas teen who ratted out his own father to the FBI is reeling from Donald Trump’s decision to pardon January 6th protesters.


Jackson Reffitt, whose father Guy Reffitt was sentenced to over seven years in prison for his role in the protests against the 2020 presidential election, spoke to CNN after Donald Trump announced that he would be pardoning all of those involved.
“I’ve taken as many precautions as I could recently,” Jackson said.
“I’ve picked up a gun, I’ve moved, and I’ve gotten myself away from what I thought would be a dangerous situation and staying where I thought my dad could find me or other people.”
However, Jackson is at least showing remorse for his actions, which included wiretapping conversations that would be used to incriminate his father.
He has admitted that doing so was “disgusting” and says he feels guilt about it to this day.
“My father’s actions coming from the Trump presidency and what he thought he was doing was right just destroyed it [my family].”
”I made a very, very disgusting decision to inform authorities about what he was doing, and I still feel horrible about it every day.”
“My sisters are out there right now, and they’re rooting for him. I understand that.”
“I come from a place of love toward them. I want to be there for them, but I can’t. It just isn’t safe for people like me who have done what I did to protect my family… I cannot feel safe around him [father].”

Despite the fact he now says he feels terrible about his actions, young Jackson repeatedly betrayed his father by requesting that he receive the maximum sentence for his supposed crimes.
During his sentencing, Jackson said that his father had “slowly lost himself over the years” and “fallen into a horrible community to find a place in this life.“
The Gateway Pundit reported extensively on the case of Guy Reffitt at the time.
His sentence of seven years was the longest sentence handed out to any January 6th protester when it was handed down.
Fortunately for Guy, other members of his family and patriots across the country offered their love and support against the persecution he faced by the Biden regime.
Now, thanks to Donald Trump, Guy will now be reunited with his family and have the chance to enjoy the life he deserves.

INFUCKINGCREDIBLE!!!

Im gathering components for a .223 rem bolt gun build. I understand only my rifle will be able to tell me what it likes, but as far as you precision shooters go can anyone give me some info?

How is Starline consistency, weight, how many reloads? Is Lapua worth the added expense?
I'm not going to be losing any reloads, I'll be picking it all up, but even so, just wondering if it's work near $40 difference per 100.

Thanks fellas!
