    Johnny football does not go first

    I just mentioned a few, here are PM's: College awards <tbody> 1994 SEC Freshman of the Year[223] 1995 First-team All-SEC[223] 1995 SEC Offensive Player of the Week (vs. Arkansas)[223] 1995 NCAA Offensive Player of the Week (vs. Arkansas)[223] 1996 Second-Team All-SEC[223] 1996 Third-Team...

    Johnny football does not go first

    You're kidding, right? Bring relevance to an irrelevant (A&M) program?? Congrats, he made a shitty program less shitty. That's a huge accomplishment, NOT. I'm not a Manning fan by any means but let's examine what Manning has done. He became Tennessee's all-time leading passer with 11,201 yards...

    not sure where to put a certain post at?..

    Yes. In the Vintage section would be great.

    Put it in the Rifles section. And don't end a sentence with a preposition. :)

    Johnny football does not go first

    First, his Wonderlic score of 32 is not impressive. Sure it's better than PM's but it's also a lot worse than many other QB's. And Payton had a much better college career than JM. Next, you don't have to be "smart" to get attention, it's called marketing. Remember all the hype about Vince Young...

    What do you make of this?

    You don't need a "fancy custom rifle" to put a new barrel on it, as the OP stated he wants to do. And 4140 steel may make a fabulous rifle barrel but it's not more fabulous than a good SS barrel. "Most" shooters can eliminate this problem with a good barrel.

    What do you make of this?

    Only if you have a shitty carbon steel barrel. But you'll find when you get a custom stainless barrel like 99% of the custom barrel makers make you wont have to worry about it.

    What is your favorite brake for .308?

    This thread is full of lose. To the OP, with one or two exceptions all brakes are essentially the same. Pick one based on aesthetics and go for it.

    Adam, I'm not wound up by any means. And Bama has nothing to do with it. I've mentioned AJ McCarron because to use your words, love him or hate him, he's got 3 NC's under his belt, 2 of which was as a starter. That's a fact and undeniable. The fact he is from Alabama is just a blessing. "Tear...

    What is your favorite brake for .308?

    I don't believe that Graham implied a brake isn't needed, I read his post as saying that if you don't have solid fundamentals, nothing will help make you more accurate. I agree with that for the most part.

    Johnny football does not go first

    The combine carries weight but is not the sole source of capability. AJ has a mediocre combine but has a stellar career. JF has a great combine but a so-so career. AJ is a better all around QB and his NFL career will show that. Clowney may have a good career as he is a stud. I am not 100%...

    What is your favorite brake for .308?

    I completely agree with Graham about training and fundamentals, however great technique can also be helped with a good brake. I don't care if you're shooting a 223 or 408. With that being said, in my experience the JP tank brake is the best by far on the market. My second choice is one of...

    Johnny football does not go first

    Your confusing my statement. I'm not saying that the QB is the ONLY one that deserves blame, but a CB has one responsibility. An OL has one responsibility. QB's call plays, read receivers, audible, that's much more responsibility. That takes the ability to think and react quickly. There are many...

    Johnny football does not go first

    There is no way JF is the best QB in this draft. AJ McCarron is 10x the QB JF is and although he did not go high, or even in the first round, he'll have a much longer NFL career and has but up MUCH BETTER numbers than JF can even dream about. All JF is is a flash in the pan marketing ploy. He...

    Holder with mils

    You'll find that in the real world most people hold. People that dial usually sit on a bench or are static on a range. If you try and dial in a comp or in real life, you're going to make a mistake eventually.

    Johnny football does not go first

    Whether like to admit it or not the combine carries weight and his wasn't well. That doesn't mean he's going to be a failure but it sure doesn't bode well for him in general. It would be different if he didn't struggle with the same issues he displayed in the combine (lack of accuracy) that he...

    Holder with mils

    Usually you would say "hold right 2 mils". The communication is usually dependent on the two communicating. If you're looking for "official" language you'll find there is none.
