Hi all,
I've been getting more into shooting and this place is a great resource, so I thought I'd sign up.
My dad taught me how to shoot when I was young, mostly shotgun and pheasant hunts, and I got away from it until recently where finishing grad school and starting a job left me with some disposable income. I'm an engineer by training and now trade. I'm continuing on in a PhD program part time.
I've had a couple handguns and shotguns, but picked up a precision AR to learn with, mostly shooting for group size at 100 yards.
Next purchase is a .308 bolt action, but I'm waiting until I find a range where I can put it through its paces past 200 yards, so if anybody knows a good one within a couple hours of Dayton, please post the info. I've found a couple nice short range ones with steel and 3 gun or pistol competition I'm looking into in the meantime.
I also compete in powerlifting in the 181lb weight class and am fairly well versed in matters of physical training, which may be of some use to this board. I'm not an endurance guy, but most of my training is of the high speed, low drag philosophy. I've done strongman competitions in the past as well.
Otherwise, I'm single and have the freedom to not concern myself with anything other than lifting, shooting, school, work, food, and the occasional young lady that will grace me with some attention. I understand this time of my life soon will end, but I'm going to try and enjoy it while I can.
Looking forward to learning a lot from this place.
