Never heard that one! Guess I'll have something to try next time I head to the range

Built out a "budget" gas gun (is anything in long range actually budget though?...) -Aero M5 upper/lower/handguard -Vortex 4-16 mil/mil (freaking LOVE this glass) -BHW 20" BBL with a 1:9 in .308 -LaRue MBT-2S -Little Bastard brake Things a tack driver.

Yeah, that seems to be the most sensible option. Since I'm getting into precision shooting mainly for competition, it actually makes a lot of sense to train both. That way those "support side only" stages won't be nearly as much of an issue. And with having a background of combat shooting and...

I'm seeing that being a lefty in a world full of righty bolt guns is a bit challenging, but I have seen a rise in demand for southpaw options. I'm thinking, like a lot of people are saying, just be proficient at both. Maybe when it comes time to build a rifle, I'll get a lefty, but for now I'll...

I'm fine shooting non-mag optics lefty. I've got a system, and my AR's are all adapted to left-handed operation. But I find that if I concentrate for a second on what my right eye is seeing, then open my left, I can see the reticle and target "floating"....if that makes sense.

So not really a textbook “break in” but still a break in?

I actually shoot AG through my 6.5cm bolt gun. That stuff can outshoot me right now, so it’s not making a whole lot of sense to pay more. Just shot my first PRS match and was making 1 moa shots out to 6–700 without much difficulty.

Very scientific! I think that’s what draws me to this. There are so many little nuances that can effect how you develop your loads/pick your ammo/etc. I guess I’ll be buying some boxes next go around. Thinking the 175 FGMM is the way to go

?

Going to shoot you a PM as to not hijack the thread any further.

Delmarva Sporting Clays?

I'm new to the long range game, but not to shooting. I have a decent amount of time behind AR and handgun platforms, but have recently been bitten by the long range bug. I've been posting on here lately, and have loved the feedback received. Also, if you guys have any recommendations where I...

Hey fellow MD'er! Where abouts are you? I'm in the Baltimore area.

Very zen. Me like. When I shot skeet, one of my coaches taught me kind of along the same lines. It was a mental process where you pictured the clays breaking so many times that when you were on the station, you almost didn't care because you had already seen them break. You had trained your...

I have a Harris, but I can mostly lock the cant out of it. I choose to run it pretty tight so that I can move it where I want it to go, but it won't go all floppy noddle on me with every movement. Think of it like a metal hangar; you can bend it, and when you do, it stays in the new position...

Do this while you're at HOME. Ask me how I know. I'm going to miss that range....

So you're saying that if I start out with, say, FGMM and shoot a group of them, then switch to BH 175's, I'll have to shoot a number of rounds with the BH's before starting to group with it? Why is that?

I 1000% accept this. With this being my first "accurate" semi-auto system, I know I'll have a lot to learn. That said, I'm trying to limit the amount of mistakes I make. Especially since my wallet can only take so much abuse hahaha.

Std CAR for now, but I fully accept that to change. It's just a starting point. Admittedly, I should've researched which buffer would be best to begin with.
