    Impacts on the target support, hit or miss?

    You are inconsistent with your first paragraph. If someone hits a 1” rock next to the target three times do you award three hits for consistency? Seems more like they’ve consistently missed the target.

    Competitive routes to take for Single or Team Competitions

    I’m not going to edit my last post again but I wanted to add this: Train how you think you’d need to train then go to one of those type matches. See how your training held up then adjust from there. Literally no one on here can tailor to you what it will take to win one of those matches on your...

    Competitive routes to take for Single or Team Competitions

    If you are going to have a ruck style field match then go anywhere but PRS. To train for the ruck matches you need to get good at target ID, target ranging, position building (with not a lot of stuff), and doing it all while tired, cold, and maybe wet. Don’t do matches where they give you the...

    Impacts on the target support, hit or miss?

    The target is the target and the post is the post. If he hit the post 2 feet below the target is that a hit? If it was hung from two posts and suspended by chains would an RO give him a hit for hitting a post? I’d imagine that the stage brief described the target, not the post.

    Rifle Competition Events VIDEO ADDED Laurens, SC Extended Range 2-Gun match Oct. 2nd

    Don’t hold me to it but we are looking at late March or early April. Cool mornings, warm afternoons. One thing we need to do is look at competing matches. We don’t want to take potential shooters from another MDs match and we don’t want to have to compete with them for shooters. Also we want to...

    Rifle Competition Events VIDEO ADDED Laurens, SC Extended Range 2-Gun match Oct. 2nd

    Glad you enjoyed it. Precision Addiction was the MD for this match and I was simply assistant to the MD. ETADIK in the wiggle worm was my baby. We did wonder how everyone would like it and afterwards we got so many great responses from that stage. I think that stage, Rolliver, and Get out of...

    Rifle Competition Events VIDEO ADDED Laurens, SC Extended Range 2-Gun match Oct. 2nd

    There may be some stressors but they will be limited. Nothing approaching tactical games. You won’t be made to carry a 100# sandbag across a field, but you may have to carry a 25# one up some stairs. It won’t be crazy, but just enough to get the heart rate up and maybe cause a little wobble in...

    Rifle Competition Events VIDEO ADDED Laurens, SC Extended Range 2-Gun match Oct. 2nd

    I have no idea what their plans are for the coming years and if it includes PRS. I am not affiliated with The Sawmill, only helping the MD for this match. If you’ve never been there then this would be a good time to check it out and see what the facility is like or can be. It has come a long...

    Rifle Competition Events VIDEO ADDED Laurens, SC Extended Range 2-Gun match Oct. 2nd

    Video from the match posted below There will be a match at The Sawmill in Laurens, SC on October 2nd. Last years match had 10 stages with ranges from 200 to 1350 yards. Distances may be brought in a bit for this years match. I’d guess 95 percent of the shots would be able to be taken with a...

    Loss of Zero. Please Help!

    “I always confirm everything is torqued to spec.” Do you mean you set the torque wrench and check everything every time? If you’re doing that then you may be over-torquing your rings and ring caps. I would suspect you’re shifting the scope in the rings slightly if you’re constantly checking torque.

    Sig 3000bdx kill flash ideas

    You may have issues putting anything in the way of the right objective lens as it may interfere with the LRF capabilities.

    Spot the sniper

    So many questions. Why is he using a clip-on yet wearing sunglasses. and what is up with the tripod leg on the right? Which direction is that supposed to be going? It looks like it comes off the apex and should be going down and back toward the shooters left leg. But just past the the hinge it...

    No need to sand. Let it wear in the high-wear areas. It’ll help break up the outline even more.

    AR-10 Short-stroking With Scope Mounted, Zero Issues Without

    Nice write up. Over-gassed has a way of masquerading as under-gassed like you said. The bolt is outrunning the magazine lift. Extra weight from the scope causes all the bolt motion to be motion without the recoiling rifle counteracting it. My shooting partner had the set screw back out of his...

    KRG Bravo Pic Thread

    I had a 6mm built and was debating what to put it in. I was thinking another MPA or MDT or even a Manners. I was so impressed with the Bravo I decided to go with it. I used it at the Vortex Team Sniper Challenge and liked it so much I replaced the MPA my .308 was in. Tuebor Precision Action...

    Best tent stakes for shooting mats?

    The MSR or tri-side stakes work well. But if they’re going through grommets then there’s nothing to keep the grommet from just lifting off from over top of them. Since we are on that type of stake, I used them for tie outs for the tarp I slept under. I used shock cord to tie it out flat and...

    Thinking out loud, a reticle for the OEM crew

    Having mil 3 and 4 above the horizontal be marked out in alternating .1 mil and then your far left and far right mils on the horizontal be like that would do the same thing as the inverted T on the Mil-R reticle. It gives you somewhere that has very fine marks. That’s a good idea to still be...

    Thinking out loud, a reticle for the OEM crew

    Speed drops?!?! I heard someone say we should throw that fucking shit in the trash. The reticles Jack Master posted look to be very useful. Not overly cluttered. What I would like to see would be about 2-4 mils above the horizontal with .2 marks or .1 mil marks alternating sides for...
