The forum rules state that one cannot advertise is they are not a supporter. The forum rules also state that one can answer questions if posed in threads.
I have not initiated any promotions. The discussion of any commercial business have all originated from those who are reading the posts...
Yes you can google "How to use a mildot reticle" and come back with a lot of results. However, there are individuals who have commented that they are following and are learning. The only way one can be learning is if there was a gap in information.
If Google searches provided all of the...
Hello again TheBigCountry,
I appreciate your query. I have no idea how to use the reticle that is pictured in your response.
If you are asking me to explain how to use a MIL dot reticle in real life, I will be providing that information in subsequent posts.
The other rifles were both...
I teach many courses. These courses are not long range marksmanship courses. During these courses I use a 16" AR.
I do teach long range marksmanship. I do not teach long range marksmanship commercially. When I do teach long range marksmanship it's because someone that I know asked me to...
Hello TacticalDillhole,
Let me be the first to inform you... Loophole shooting is way outside of my ability. I've done it once... Long ago... It was difficult then and I'm sure that it'd be even more difficult now.
When this series gets to loophole shooting I would be more than happy to your...
Hello Trigger Monkey,
Your question, "With a background as enriched as yours why talk about a mildot reticle?", is quite valid..
The reason why I am starting with MIL dot reticles is that, despite the military's new TTPs many civilian marksmen are still using duplex and MIL dot style...
Hello TheBigCountry,
Just a note re weapons. My primary discipline is asset recovery and preparation for TEOTWAWKI situations. With this in mind, my weapons are designed around availability of repair parts and ammunition in a time when there are no repair parts nor ammunition. I'm speaking...
Good morning TxWelder35
Your question requires a LOT of information to be answered. And I will answer it. This response will be a bit short as I have already planned in depth posts dealing with winds and mirages and adjustments. For now though, here we go:
STARTING POINT
The 7-yard zero is...
Good morning Trigger Monkey,
I see that you live in Winchester, VA. I was in Winchester several years ago. There was a long distance range in the mountains there that I frequented. I forget the name of it. It's been some time.
As you've been a member of this form for some 16 years +, I...
For those who are following this thread, I have posted part 2 of this series.

Good morning armorpl8chikn
I appreciate all of the replies that are received. Each reply, comment and meme provides me with an opportunity to share with everyone. In the case of part 1 of this series, I know that the method that I presented is quite unconventional. But it works and it works...
Good morning DuneBoer,
I must admit that I am unable to provide any information regarding your question. I wish I could. There are some very intelligent persons on this forum. I am sure that someone will be able to provide you with the information that you are looking for.
Before I close...
Good morning Steel head,
I appreciate your memes and what appears to be your skepticism. These memes provide a Segway for me to be able to interact with both you and the forum populace. I am truly grateful.
Hopefully, as I continue to post I might be able to allay some reservations...
Hello TheOfficeT-Rex,
I forgot to address a point from your query... Again, I'm assuming that you reviewed our website, and the point being that at times we provide ammunition for our courses. The reason that we do this is that (live ball) ammunition has been difficult for students to acquire...
I am assuming that you reviewed our website. Based on this assumption, I will provide the reasons that we utilize airsoft.
1. In order to provide training with a real handgun (at least in the state of Texas) you have to be licensed. Becoming a licensed firearms instructor is not the easiest...

MY BACKGROUND
My call sign is Krieger. I am a former Special Forces Soldier (7th Special Forces Group, Ft. Bragg, NC), former security contractor , former instructor (Department of State), and current...
Good morning 65x55guy,
I appreciate your encouragement. I will post the next 2 parts. They are not nearly as controversial as part 1 has been.
I actually appreciate the negative comments. It shows several things:
1. The forum members are smart and will not be swayed by TTPs that don't...
Hello Maxduty,
I would like to thank you for your meme. It is pretty funny. I had intended to post the next two parts immediately, however, as you can see my TTP is drawing a lot of attention and a lot of scrutiny... Which I can certainly understand. I like to try to address all of the...
Hello Basher,
I appreciate your note. I am curious as to the tone that you're referencing. I would like to avoid being one with a tone. I am simply providing a TTP that has worked for me and has worked for others. It might not work for you or for some, and I understand that. Not every TTP...
Hello ForgeVally,
I agree that most times your TTP is more than sufficient. There are times that boresighting is not an option. When it is not an option, I make it simple. I fire at 7 yards. From 7 yards I can immediately see the impact of my round with the naked eye. This is an advantage...
