    Surprised myself today

    The ammo really does make a difference in consistency. I like you used to shoot using inexpensive (what I could get for cheap) ammo, however once I made the change to good quality ammo that all changed.Practice, practice, practice. Dry fire practice may not be to your liking but it is a real key...

    Hunting & Fishing Maybe My Oxygen's Low and Trash Gives Me a Rash

    The world, the great outdoors, the beach, the ocean it all seems to be trash filled these days. We have no one to blame but ourselves.

    Vortex Razor HD 11-33, Viper HD 15-45, or Bushnell Legend HD 15-45

    I own the Bushnell and have to admit that even at 200 yds it is hard at best and impossible if there is any mirage to pick up 308 hits on paper. I bought the product after reading reviews that it would be capable of picking up hits at that short a distance. However my experience with the...

    Advanced Marksmanship Catching ejected brass questions.

    I started doing it pretty much as shown in the vid above because I was shooting bench at that time and I'm too time old to want to clean it up later if it rolled off the bench.Now it has just become a habit and I do it from pretty much any position I shoot from. The only exceptions are off of...

    Talk me into your favorite R700 Chassis

    The wait is not something I would have preferred, however the JAE is the chassis that I decided I wanted. I did not enjoy any part of the wait, but once I received my order it is absolutely the best chassis I have ever put my hands on. It has the whole package; looks, ergonomics and performance...

    Can we please stop calling them "sticks"?

    Wait, what? Before I let this go any further and stir up a S**t storm that does not need to be started: I am an American Indian, I do take pride in that, however I do not speak my tribes native language. I take just as much pride in being an "American" as I do in being an "American Indian". I...

    Can we please stop calling them "sticks"?

    I am sorry that you are having to live such an empty, bitter life that you need to stoop to this type of behavior. I don't know if it stems from a flaw in your character, a lack of appreciation for the small amount of genitalia that you did end up with or the mistaken impression that you have...

    Can we please stop calling them "sticks"?

    OK time for some sanity here. The origins of calling a rifle a stick comes from the American Indian tribe cultures. When you started this thread I found you humorous. Truth be told you have every right to express your opinions, wheather anyone agrees with them or not. However now you claim that...

    Can we please stop calling them "sticks"?

    Yes I deffly heard a click. As a matter of fact I was already diving for the nearest hole when i read the header. But it looks like after all was said and done (at least I hope its done), the OP took the ribbing which was well deserved and acknowledged the humor from the best of the batch. We...

    Practicing trigger control.

    Here is related question that might freshen the air of this thread: In order to maintain good trigger control what angle should your wrist be in? i.e. bent, straight, high, low? This is not a trick or gotcha question. I am having some inconsistent flyers from time to time and have started to...

    And yet some businesses are not allowed to choose not to pay for certain portions of the affordable care act coverage for their employees. It will be an interesting decision from the Supreme Court in June.

    JAE 700, they do exist

    Do you know something in regards to their future ability to deliver product or are you only referencing their past performance in regards to delivering product?

    Did I screw up and buy the wrong R700?

    How many rounds have you fired to get accustomed to the rifle? I ask because although I had alot of experience prior to finishing my last build it took me about 500 rds to start getting used to and accurate with the system. I had to get the setup comfortable and repeatable. You may have a welth...
