    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    This justification for stifling change is also stifling growth. What does "matches are still selling out" mean? It gives the impression that "who cares?" as long as the same 200 shooters continue spending there money. Maybe it's purely a regional problem, but IMO there is a lack of matches...

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    This is true as well. I always invite others to the range for shooting sessions. Everyone is a long range shooter or wants to learn until it’s time to show up. Then it’s the wife, the kids, etc. I’m not sure if it’s a time issue or intimidation factor but the struggle is real.

    Agreed. But on the other hand, apparently the facilities and boats are much nicer......

    How is 7PRC better than 7 Rem Mag?

    Apparently Hornady wasn't able to continue loading with the original powder they spec'd the factory ammo velocities with. Guys in my area are having good luck with powders in the H1000 burn rate. I'm currently running Staball HD and it runs well with the case as full as possible.

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    You miss the main point... If you are taking money to manage a "series" you should in a word, manage it. Being a for profit organization doesn't make a company evil, but nobody has made that assertion. It would actually be a more profitable proposition for them to appeal to the masses and...

    How is 7PRC better than 7 Rem Mag?

    OP Sorry if this has been answered previously but this thread is TLDR with too many derails. In a nutshell the 7 PRC is setup for long range shooting in a factory rifle with factory ammo. If you wanted to do the same with the 7 RM you would have to have a custom rifle built and for using the...

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    So here you've made the PRS to be the victim of non competitive shooters who are just a bunch of pussies...... And here the PRS is not at fault for not managing a Series that they take the money for managing...... And here we get a little light to shine for transparency...... Bottom line, the...

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    You pretty much nailed it here from my limited experience. The smaller club matches are more relaxed and more fun. To be honest the small matches had the better stages that weren't just copy/paste. It's almost intangible but at the less enjoyable matches there is always an air of "elitism" or...

    So over the Contrived and Repetitive Nature of Stages today

    Speaking as a complete novice PRS type shooter who has never and never will be on a podium, I do enjoy PRS matches a couple times per year. The constant turn offs are the ego driven jackasses arguing over every point (not that it helps their placement) and also the repetitive nature of the...

    Going to call this the "Unpopular Opinion" thread and I have some thoughts...

    Holy F@ck! I’m humbled by the grandiosity of your intellect. How can I, a humble peon expect to bask in the benevolent glow of your philosophical grandeur? But even a humble peon thinks your ranting about mayonnaise is the stupidest bullshit to be posting about…. Here’s a solution for you...

    He "HATES" Taylor Swift ...

    Congrats, this is the dumbest shit I’ve read in months…. What F@cking planet do you live on? Maybe things like the economy, immigration, national security, and war should be more important considerations for the future of our country and as a result for the rest of the world. But apparently...

    .338 Imperial Magnum hunting rifle caliber

    This right here. Your smith that is putting the rifle together should be able to get you a custom set of matching dies for the chamber. Hornady, RCBS, and Redding all provide this as a service. There are other die makers as well. Good luck, it looks like an interesting and fun project.

    I F'n despise Leofoto and other Chinese knockoff specialists

    Listen up Sparky, Scooter, whatever the hell your name is... You have no idea who you are messing with. I'm the Real Deal, Badass Mother F*cker around here. Did you miss the bow kill count? Did you know I've poured more concrete than your whole race? You better check yourself before you...

    Are U high? Obviously I have read the whole drawn out drama fest that you have ongoing... That is why I responded with a non confrontational, non emotional response to your Xenophobic tirade. Take a step back, take a breath and remember this is just the internet. At this point what are you...

    300 Norma Mag

    N570 is the optimum powder for performance in the 300 NM but know the price to be paid. I would recommend cleaning at shorter intervals than you may be used to, it definitely seems to help with consistency.

    I F'n despise Leofoto and other Chinese knockoff specialists

    Nobody cares what color you are, we care about what you identify as…. Who cares where your parents/grandparents were born, how do you identify yourself? F@ck off with the descriptor and just be American. All of us white anglos came from other countries too, you’re not unique. Tons of guys...
