landed in the point of my life where i can invest "somewhat heavily" both time & money into pursuing a passion
i want to push into the ranks of PRS/NRL22 as a top contender, gotta register for both obviously


shooting background: USMC STA plt '02-'06, PRS/NRL22 19-now, prs centerfire 22/23 so shooting fundamentals and positions aren't new to me tho execution of such...well...
I now have access to a "local" range (1hr away) but can only shoot steel twice a month (scheduled practice/match days), i was asked to be a match director for this clubs up and coming rimfire PRS style shooting. so i have access to the range whenever and the Cof i can create, as well as use entry fee money from matches to re-invest into the club for props/targets.
i use my favorite range (3 hours away) about once a month/every other month (gunline shooting- MS) great place. they have steel and amazing people!

my current setup
vudoo gen2 24" MTU
McMillian A4 stock (clone-ish of my service rifle)
Harris bipod *swivel w/ pod-lock
9mm local made suppressor (looks mostly i have a .22 can as well but the 9mm one just looks right)
gen3 razor mil/mil

i was running a foundation genesis but felt that it was to thick for me around the grip and fore end. and also was having issues with mindset (centerfire matches mostly), hince why i went to the McMillian. if every target was a bad guy it seemed to make sense in my head. However as i make this transition of time/money investment into practice and practical application of rising in the sport i feel that some of my kit needs to be refined, with .22 i don't feel the i'm that far off with mindset hurdles that happens with centerfire dunno why (TBI/ PTSD its something real that happens and don't understand it) i'm looking for help.

bought dryfire lens and the screen (yes a dot on the wall would have worked) so starting to implement that daily into my routine, normal live fire shooting schedule is 2nd Sat/month is open practice steel targets as far out as i want to go, 4th Sun/month Local match (mostly NRL22 CoF plus whatever i want to add, glory of being a MD i guess) and any other matches from neighboring clubs within about a 4 hour radius currently (south Louisiana)

it may be as simple as balancing my rig and putting an arca rail on it. tho might need to ditch it all and start over with full customizable chassis/barrel length the whole 9 yards.

things i feel should look into:
*suppressor vs tuner vs slick
*ammo - run CX and SK rifle match ( lot testing or off the shelf - see above tuner?)
*barrel length (seen the YT video cutting down a 4ft .22 barrel)
*chassis/stock options
*professional coaching

In a true assessment of my shooting skills (.22 only - i shit the bed centerfire) i would put myself mid/upper mid. lots of top 10, few smaller matches 1st place and a handful of 2nd/3rds. Strong base but tons of room to improve

I'm sure this is gonna get flames and all that normal internet crap but at the same time posting this in a way starts my accountability on this journey.
Are you a higher tier shooter / shooting coach / shooting industry personality ? would love to hear from you and maybe steal some of your knowledge post here or feel free to DM me.
Stupid comments need not apply
Thanks,
Cody

Overcharge me for Hornady lot number 3210291 if you’ve been hoarding boxes of ELDX. My rifle loved that lot and I’m out.

This is the list of charges levied against a shit ball neighbor that was hauled out of here a couple days ago.
Does the double listing of the 100,000 bond mean that’s a total of 200k or is it only 100k?

My guess is to follow their directions, you'd have to use a cleaning loop because a jag would allow patch to fall off correct? Their instructions are,
(We suggest cleaning in the following manner. After approximately 100 rounds push a dry loose patch through the barrel from the breach end. This pushes out loose fouling. Then take a tighter dry patch and work it back and forth about 10 times in the leade area, pushing it out of the barrel at the muzzle end when finished. ) The patch would fall off of a jag using the back and forth motion. They don't say to use a loop but, seems the only way I know of, to keep the patch in place. Pushing dry loose patch out muzzle could be done using a jag for the first step. Also, are these jags worth it to prevent false positives of copper fouling? If so I'll order one Thanks!

Price for 100 pieces- $80

I have two 100 piece packs of once-fired Hornady 6mm GT brass. It has been deprimed, annealed, shoulder bumped .002, and tumbled. I did not resize or trim necks, leaving that up to the buyer to decide what they want. I will have more up for sale soon if you want more.

Shipping to lower 48 included in the price.

I hate having to do this but I know there will be whiners. To address any complaints and math challenged trolls who think this is too high for once-fired brass, let me pro/con this for you. New Hornady 6GT brass is .84 cents per piece, PLUS whatever the shipping and tax is. For example, a new 100-piece order from a shop known for 6GT in Missouri is $84 + $25.92 in shipping charges to Georgia for a total of $109.92, so in this case you would pay just shy of $1.10 per piece of brass, and this is without tax.

No trades, payment via PayPal, Venmo, or Zelle. Shipping will occur once payment is secured, no exceptions. You are welcome to use Goods and Services options, as long as you are covering the fees.

I recently returned from my hunting safari with Africa Maximum Safaris in South Africa. For this hunt, I chose the sable package and added on eland, kudu, blesbok, and red hartebeest. I took my CVA Cascade 7 PRC with the 175gr Barnes TSX. I had one shot kills on everything except for the blesbok. He was at 290 yards and fell on the first shot. However, we had to give him a follow-up shot because he tried to get up when we approached him with the vehicle. Plus, I don't want to see an animal suffer and die slowly. The first shot was a touch high. Everything else was one-shot kills. My load is 73.3 grains of N570, COL 3.215", ADG brass, and GM215M primers. It runs 3050 fps. I'm extremely impressed with this rifle and bullet combo.
Here is a short video of the shot on the eland.

while supporting first strike,...

Looking to buy a 30% off Euro optic certificate.

The rifle in question is a "low number" 1903, with a 10-18 barrel. So chances are it has not seen much use in any of the world wars. The barrel is in good shape for its age.

According to my research:

Standard accuracy for the 1903 was generally around a 2-4 inch grouping at 100 yards.

And mine is running in the 4" range no matter what I try, heavy bullets, light bullets, deeper seating, just a kiss off the lands. The only thing I have not tried are hot loads, right smack dab in the middle of the manuals is where I have been loading them. I even tried some "youth" loads with 125gr bullets. Nothing will move it below 3". I have also tossed the powder drawer at it with no real differences.

I think this old girl is what she is. I bet I have done 200 rounds of testing 5 to 10 rounds at a time. I have 25 of the best so far loaded up, cleaned it to where it is likely better then it was when it left the factory, and as soon as my darn back calms down I will run it out and see how she does. My trapdoor groups better than this old gal.

Question is, two fold. Any suggestions on something I might have missed, and two when do you say.....well this is as good as she does.

In practical terms it is minute of man at 100 all day long.....and really that is what it was made to do.

It took a little while for me to publish this video due to a back issue I've been having, but I finally got it out.

This one takes a look at the basics of mirage, and how it can impact your POI. You guys who regularly shoot in the desert probably know this and will laugh at us uninitiated, but I usually shoot in the hills where we don't get mirage that impacts our POI... or do we?
