    Inability to shoot well with magnums

    @lowlight , if you were to boil down the state of mind when shooting a magnum, what would you say it is? I would say "relax"... that always seems to help get better groups... just build a good fundamental position and "relax" let the body take the recoil. Or maybe I am to philosophical.

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    Oh.. my bad.. missed that... I don't buy into it being MORE lethal than those..... I believe that it has been the largest accidentals/direct fire due to the shear volume of arms in .22.... but MORE lethal than a those.. nah, I am with you on that statement!

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    Traditional .22's and Long Range Match typically are lead based. That lead is soft and when it hits something, it tends to squash into a .22<Bullet<.44 sized wad of lead moving through the body. You don't get the "Whump" of the energy transfer or Temporary Would channel from that Shock... but...

    Rifle Scopes Best scope for around $1500

    Get ahold of Pressley in our circles in NC... you might remember him from the Canadian Sight, before we came CFF... Cronus BTR IHD Mil Mil ... I let a well known competitor shooter look through it and he was astonished at the Clarity, FOV, Mag and loved the reticle.... I was hesitant... but...

    Trump struggles to drink out of a glass, unsteady on ramp

    Watching his swing is indicating a sore shoulder and Golfer's elbow on the right side. (Yes, is more of a bitch than tennis elbow). He can't walk down a ramp; but he can knock a golf ball 275 years down the midde? At age 74?... Heh... yeah... he may have been a little sore. Meanwhile Joe...

    What's the most stupid thing you've been told?

    Been there.... bet the RO $100 or I leave for good on a cold range call except for me shooting. Put 10 in less than an inch at 100 Yards, packed up my gear and told him to keep his money... and his Fudd-ass range.

    Overnight hotel tips when traveling for a match

    Many times if you are going to a large match, there will be other competitors. Probably the Hotel Staff is well aware. We were checking in at a Hilton one time and the 6 of us load up the luggage carts and walk in. The Manager was sweet country girl that said good luck. Match was the...

    Made in USA movement!

    All good points @Mr.BR and @lariat. I think if we were to pull the experience on this forum, we could definitely get this country right. We are a disposable-consumer driven economy now... If it breaks, it is so cheap I can get another. Let something disrupt that by lowering Disposable Income...

    Made in USA movement!

    I totally believe on the intent in this thread. I believe that the American consumer would weigh Made in America against other product variables such as Cost, Design, Trend, Brand, etc... The problem is the Chester Law of 1998. https://chester-law.com/made-usa-basics/ So, you have a company...

    Drudge Report...

    I believe that Drudge sold out and the group that has the rights to the name are now using that to slowly transition into the LAME STREAM MEDIA with Inquirer-like nutso propos. www.rantingly.com is my Drudge type site now. Bongino is up in traffic after drudge sold out. The only thing that...

    Ruger Precision Rimfire sub minute?

    I bought an RPRR. And before @armorpl8chikn gets on to me, I bought it as an extra for our TSC Match. There is always someone there who comes to watch and I want them to shoot! So I bought one, figuring it would be at least similarly accurate as my run of the mill Savage MK II. (as now...
