    Kestrel use during a match - Enter specific ranges or go with a general range card?

    I just picked up a 5700 w/LINK and am getting it all figured out. I've always used Strelok before now. I'm also just coming into PRS/DMM type matches from the 3Gun world. Do y'all tend to enter specific ranges into your Kestrel for match stages? I *think* I like being able to create a range...

    The scum among us.

    As the father of an incredibly awesome kid, that I happened to adopt at birth, I'd suggest this piece of shit had other options.

    Tikka TAC A1 stock....I don't like it

    I've been getting my new Tik TAC A1 dialed in, ~150 rounds so far and love the rifle. Except for the butt stock. The fixed spacers for LOP and the adjustment for cheek rest has me grumbling. I realize I'm in the minority, it seems most think the stock is one of the real pluses for this rig...

    Tikka TAC A1 or Ruger Precision

    I'm no expert, but I bought a Tikka TAC A1 a couple months ago and absolutely love it. I'm getting consistent 0.3" 100 yard groups with cheap Hornady Am Gunner 140gr ammo. I'm still working n load development for longer range, but think I've settled on RL-17 pushing a 140gr ELD-M seated ~2.2"...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns So I considered a shotgun for my wife, WTF is this?

    I have not read all of the above... I picked up a 20ga Yildiz O/U a year or so ago in trade. Got it dirt cheap. That thing has been rock solid. Fires ejects everything i feed it. Chokes work as they should. And hits to POA with both barrels. No complaints at all. Even the wood is nicely...

    Making a Mile Long Shot

    Huh. I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you there. I took an "intro to precision" class back in December (Mike Sexton, Clinton, SC). Having never shot past 300 before that day, was able to ring a 24x36 at 1 Mile on the 3-4th shot to get the windage right. Savage FCP-SR WITH STOCK...

    Your proudest (and maybe least proud) shooting moments.

    Proudest moment....as a lowly E3 doing rifle quals having the Gunny ripping the ass of everyone on the line (as only Marine GySgts can do) til he got to me. All he said was, "Ok" and moved on the next guy.

    Is sawtooth rifles GTG?

    I already traded email with him last night. We're good. I'm patiently waiting. I'm fairly new to this game and haven't figured out yet who the 'good' players are vs. the ones to watch out for. So, I was just feeling out to see if the consensus was, "yeah....those guys suck" or, "don't worry...

    Any obvious signs of bad form?

    Stock/Action screws too. Not just the optic

    Thinking I need a Battle Belt

    For anyone in Upstate SC, the Palmetto State Armory in Greenville has a bin full of marked down battle belts (2/12/19). I saw HSGI, safariland, and others in the mix. I saw stuff raged at $160 marked down to $90. New, stuff not obviously used.

    Any obvious signs of bad form?

    It's been a while since you shot this rifle.....did you go through and verify all hardware, rings, etc are properly torqued?

    Is sawtooth rifles GTG?

    I placed an order for a Tika T3x rail with these folks in early Jan. The rail is/was advertised as "expected shipping mid/late January", so I wasn't expecting next day delivery. I understand shit happens, but here we are mid-Feb and... So, if y'all say these guys are good to go, I'll keep on...

    AR-15...best outta the box gun that’s suited for shots out to 500 yards for 3 gun matches

    I'll amend my statement somewhat to say, "when it comes to RIFLES, 95% of 3 gun is software, not hardware". Shotguns...there is a clear dividing line between entry level and higher end guns. A JM Pro is a distinct disadvantage compared to a Berreta 1301, Benelli M2, etc. Same for pistols...

    AR-15...best outta the box gun that’s suited for shots out to 500 yards for 3 gun matches

    Why anyone would drop large $$ on a 3-gun setup is beyond me. It's just not necessary. If you're into gadgets and brand name engraving, that's cool. To each their own. Quality barrel - for 3 gun accuracy that means 2MOA. Not hard or expensive to get. Decent compensator to flatten out the...
