    6.5CM, Issues with 140 AMAX in 8 Twist Edit: Bad Lot of AMAX

    Neck Tension inconsitancy

    Wanting to finally get my first bolt gun

    All of the above seems to be sound advice---There was a time in my past that I wouldn't have dreamed of being a 'bolt gun' guy. Now, my M-4/ACOG sit in the safe and my Armalite AR-10T just sold. You are on the road to better things.

    Swat snipers-average distance to target

    It's been accepted knowledge of the close range, sometimes marginal ability of police snipers. In my second stint at Rifles Only, we had a pair of police SWAT snipers from San Antonio, TX train with us.

Scopes have a way of staying with you while rifles come and go. You're going to get many opinions on "what is the best". Me, I've owned...

    --Very funny!! I relaxed for about 10 whole seconds during intense, motivating and fast moving instruction and this is what happens... I can't thank the instuctors, staff and students enough for their dedication to this discipline.

    Rifle weight for tactical match
