    Stomped by wind

    I can’t say I’ve ever really seen a book that lays it all out in terms of process especially cross compartment wind. 🤔

    Gunsmithing Legal question about pin & weld

    This is why the whole thing is dumb and completely retarded. We have several KAC SBRs at work (12.5” obviously not pinned). Had another upper 14.5 come in a while later, boss asked me to switch out the FH on the rifle (in my defense the 14.5 upper was on an SBR lower) I didn’t get around to...

    Stomped by wind

    So what you’re experiencing is cross compartment wind (aslrookie’s situation has similarities). The approach to cross compartment wind management follows the same basic tenants but with the addition necessities of going much deeper. 1. Establish Wind indication points. The simple 1/3 -2/3 rule...

    Stomped by wind

    Well way to make this awkward, I used my real name here in an effort to alleviate a situation like this. While I have a healthy sense of accomplishment, I am not terribly interested in have to continually cite them but since you asked. Long range shoot has been the core of my professional...

    Stomped by wind

    This is exactly my point. You clearly don’t have an clear understand or an effective process. You, much like the rest of the masses think “if I just buy this…” or you hear some snippets on a podcast/YouTube video and think this little trick here with solve my problems. But the reality is...

    Stomped by wind

    Biggest thing I am seeing here is you don’t seem to have a process. You’re all over the place in describing your observations. I’d highly recommend taking a class, getting some coaching, develop your process for solving wind. You need to know where to read the wind, how to read wind and hue to...

    Guinness world record for open sight long-distance shooting.

    Yes but probably not directly. Companies certainly see the feature of drones in combat and thus are attempting to exploit it just like everyone else. Back to the top, long range rifle/small arms fire is an effective element of combat both historical and current. Technological progression is...

    Best ELR cartridge for an AR10 build

    A 1-1.5 MOA semi-auto isn’t really “awful” especially considering the doctrinal intent. I’d wager that the vast majority of opinion on Dragunovs come from folks shooting beat to shit guns obtained through BFR, while being fed some shit ball ammo. But that’s neither here nor there, so to the...

    Anything better for me than a 6.5 Grendel in the AR-15 platform?

    Honestly save yourself the trouble, a good match 16-18” 5.56 with a solid rail, good trigger and a nice piece of glass will fill the gap with the 6.5 cm so long as you feed it good quality ammo. I see probably several hundred students a year for precision rifle and SPR stuff. The guys running...

    Built in MOA in Action Different than in Forend - PVS30 Mounting Question

    Never had an issue with 20 MOA, I don’t think it’s a big deal.

    KRG Bravo CTR Mags or AICS?

    Goddamn! How does this shit get resurrected? 😑

    KRG Bravo CTR Mags or AICS?

    AICS mags all the way. I’ve seen way to many issues with the CTR mags not feeding especially when they get dirty.

    A tale of two Bartlein barrels - Cryo treatment?

    There is a reason sniper system tend to run heavy barrels, light weight barrels can be accurate BUT the chances of you having POI shifts as it heats is high. Honestly a 1/2lbs difference is an easy choice given the confidence of performance.

    Guinness world record for open sight long-distance shooting.

    Guinness world record for open sight long-distance shooting.

    Well this is a grossly in accurate statement grounded absolute ignorance. There are in fact several situations to which employment of accurate rifle fire against +1 meter targets at extreme distances are of incredible tactical value on a modern battle field. To suggest otherwise is indicative of...

    QD MOUNT POSITION

    Yes it certainly can cause your zero to shift from a mechanical perspective, I’ve seen vertical shifts usually around 0.1-0.2 MRAD shifts bump forward or back a slot. Additionally it’s going to change your head/body position behind the rifle. The whole trick with accuracy and precision is...

    Calculating true distance to target when shooting downhill

    I always find it funny how much math people are willing to do in effort to calculate something so minuscule, it would be lost well within their actual ability to shoot. 🤣 Knowledge is the amassing of information, wisdom is the appropriate application of knowledge in context to a specific set of...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Steel Case Ammo - G19, G43x, PDP

    I’ve seen 100,000 or so steel cased rounds pushed through school house G19s. Never seen an issue other than that shit was dirty and so guns needed a bit more cleaning.

    Question about Mk12 buttstock choice.

    The optic was from an XM2010 prototype that I procured on my self. It was a tad big for a Mk12 but that optic lived between my Mk12, Mk13 and XM107 (just different zero settings between rifles) which was the reason I had it in the Larue QD mount. Hands down one of the better options at the...

    Question about Mk12 buttstock choice.

    I’ve never seen a Mk12 with a 3 round burst configuration. Everyone I’ve ever seen was built of M16A1 lowers. I am like 99% sure everyone wanted carbine buttstock because they’re adjustable and chick dig them. 😅
