    Boots for the 'Stan...

    +1 for the Lowa Zephyrs. I'm on my 2nd pair and they are great boots for AFG if you're not scaling mountains or carrying a heavy ruck.

    Best long sleeve hot weather shirts

    For the criteria you have listed, I would recommend the Crye Precision Combat Shirts.

    New LR rifle advice

    Got into LR shooting a couple of years ago with a Remington 700 SPS tactical in .308. I took some Precision Rifle classes and shot a couple F-class matches at the Whittington Center. Now, want to do a custom or semi-custom rifle build to correct all things that I wish I had on my first rifle...
