    Savage 12 F/TR. Savage target action, nice trigger, 30" Bull barrel.

    I definitely prefer bolt actions over my 10/22.

    My factory 10/22 Target shoots one ragged hole at 25 Yards off a bipod. At 200 yards I can ring a 7" steel until the cows come home.

    Maggie’s You know it is going to be a bad day when..................

    That would get my full attention. We had a black bear show up at a shoot at Academi. We were shooting Garands at the 200 yard line on the 1000 yard range. She stood up by the executive protection training area around the 300 yard line for a good ten minutes, crossed the range to the road...

    Some days you shoot good, some days you dont, was it the humidity?

    Perhaps it wasn't humidity, but rather the Lord was trying to teach you humility. I find that this sport humbles everyone on occasion. Everytime I think i can shoot, humility shows up.

    Maggie’s Whats the absolute worst conditions you'll go shooting?

    Does a high power match in a tropical storm gusting 25-50 count as crazy. The wind was blowing hard enough to snap 2x4 legs of the target carriers in half. I had had to take a shower with my AR after the match to get the sand out. My wife still refers to that rifle as the other women for some...

    ESS ICE + U-Rx inserts

    Looking through the scope or sights was good, but general vision was poor due to the focus placement.

    ESS ICE + U-Rx inserts

    I has a set with the RX inserts. I just took them down to lens crafters and told them to make the inserts. I even had them move the center of the lens in my shooting eye up and in towards my nose to where it is when I am shooting in the prone position. It took a while for them to fully...

    One rifle and only one rifle

    +1 There are a bunch of great rifles. Why limit yourself to just one. Anyways, I would feel guilty leaving one rifle in the safe by itself. It might start bitching that I don't love her enough, start cheating on me and i would have to divorce her and replace her with a newer model.

    Rifle Scopes Entry Level Optic

    +1 for SWFA. I stuck one on my SP Tactical and then used it with good affect out to 1000. The rifle and the scope would do their part, it is shame that the idiot behind the scope needs more practice.

    Custom Build ?

    A bunch of money for a good gunsmith and time, lots of time to wait for your build to make it to the top of the list. Do you have a quality reloading setup?

    Does anyone out there shoot budget rifles for long range <1000 dollars

    I shot my first 1000 yard match with a Remington SPS Tactical with a 10x SWFA SS scope just to see if it would reach out that far. Stayed on paper (mainly in the black) with hand loads; however, I doubt I could ever be competitive with that combination. The rest of the folks with budget...
