    2025 Mammoth Fort Chaffee AAR

    Great write up! I was in your squad, we were the team that unfortunately only did the first day rucks, my feet were trashed and it would have been stupid to attempt to continue on. Now I know better what to plan and train for for next year.

    Mammoth Sniper challenge 2 AAR: very late edition

    The two that I did on the first day were about 5.4 miles each if I remember correctly.

    Mammoth Sniper challenge 2 AAR: very late edition

    We had a good time although things didn’t turn out as we would have wanted. After the first day my feet were pretty bad and I made the decision to bow out of the rucks when woke up Saturday morning. I still hate thinking about it but it ultimately was the right choice. it’s just motivation to...

    Mammoth Sniper challenge 2 AAR: very late edition

    That sounds like a lot of calories but better to have more than not enough. I'm leaning toward taking the Peak meals too.

    Mammoth Sniper challenge 2 AAR: very late edition

    Thanks for the great write up. I'll be doing my first Mammoth in March and the biggest thing that's giving me stress is what and how much food to bring.

    Sig Kilo

    I have also had a pairing issue with my 3k to the Kestrel on occasion. If the did a swap for only $100 that’s good to know.

    Georgia, Good Matches for Beginners

    Next month there is a Guardian Long Range match at The Arena Trailing Facility in Blakely GA that I'm shooting. This will be my first one but from what I hear they’re very helpful, it can’t hurt to reach out.

    2024 Legion Memorial Run and Gun, Honoring the Fallen as a Family

    Great AAR! My run in the 5k went well and as always it was a great match run by great people for a great cause.

    Mammoth 2025

    At 6am this morning getting ready to go out for a run I got a text from a friend that he’s up for doing Mammoth with me in March. I told him that I’m looking forward to having a good bad time with him. Pretty psyched.

    2024 Legion Memorial Run and Run - who’s going?

    I’ll hit the range on Saturday. I’ll admit I haven’t been tuned in for this match with everything else in life going on and I’ve been thinking heavily about doing Mammoth in March but I haven’t nailed down a partner yet. I’ll get my daughter to help me load mags which might be one of the best...

    2024 Legion Memorial Run and Run - who’s going?

    I can take my holster off of my belt by just unclipping it with the Glock still in it if I need to. After going through the muck last year I had a ton of magazine problems.

    2024 Legion Memorial Run and Run - who’s going?

    I’ll be carrying a write in the rain notebook in a ziplock bag. I always have one on my kit anyway. I pretty much have all my stuff sorted out. I might not wear the small backpack with the water bladder this year and just carry a water bottle but not sure on that just yet. I should have taken...

    To lube or not to lube

    I have one Deadair Sandman that I switch between rifles and deal with the same thing as you. I have started putting the tiniest amount of CLP on the muzzle device where the can keys on and it seems to solve the issue.
