    Advanced Marksmanship Moving from the Bench to Prone sights are off?

    Re: Moving from the Bench to Prone sights are off? thanks for the replies, it has to be my cheek positioning and I find it a little uncomfortable to shoot from prone since most of my shooting is from the bench. Practice makes perfect I guess

    Advanced Marksmanship Moving from the Bench to Prone sights are off?

    Today I brought out my new Savage 10FP in 308 to play with the snipershide tactical targets at 100yards. I got my scope sighted in for 100 yards dead nuts right off the bench. I moved to shoot prone and I was 1-2 inches low on all my shots, I went back to the bench and again was dead on. I'm...

    Fieldcraft At what distance are military sniper shots taken?

    Re: Average Military sniper shot distance? I never asked the question with intent to learn what distances to train for. I was just curious to hear what the average distance was for a military sniper shot.

    Fieldcraft At what distance are military sniper shots taken?

    There is a lot of info on the average distance of shots taken by law enforcement snipers. I was very surprised to see the average as short as 77 yards, but it does make sense knowing that they try and get as close as they can. At what distance are most military sniper shots taken? I've done...

    Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle?

    Re: Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle? Thanks some great replies here. I was at the range today and shot off some strings of 5 or so and the heat wasn't too bad, I could hold onto the barrel, after that though it got a little hot to touch. I'm still going to do a tactical comp when one...

    Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle?

    Re: Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle? Thanks Steve, I don't reload at the moment but am picking up a starter kit this week. I do have another question, how long of a string of shots can I get away with that are accurate and not damaging to the barrel with my current set up?

    Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle?

    Re: Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle? That's to bad, hunting has never really interested me all that much. The recoil issue doesn't really bother me, my first few times out I was a little stiff after 20 or so but lately it seems like I can shoot all day long. Is there any kind of...

    Sporter barrel on a tactical rifle?

    I have a Remington 700 SPS in 300 win mag. I'd like to enter some tactical shooting matches when I get proficient enough with it. It seems every tactical rifle I see has a heavy barrel on it. Am I ok to use a sporter barrel? The gun weights just over 8 lbs and I like the light weight so its...
