    Advanced Marksmanship Alternatives to prone for long range - Disabled shooter

    I think in all practical applications the tripod / saddle combination will be the most appropriate aid. The tripod can also be used as a crutch to help him move into and out of the firing position.

    Help Spec My First 6.5CM Build (100-1300YD do-all)

    Thanks for the responses - just to clarify the 10x isnt ideal but will have to do for now. (and FWIW I had a SWFA 5-20 for a couple of years and still have some fixed SS's and have no intention of buying the 5-20 again, that's a whole other story and not really interesting) No intentions of...

    Help Spec My First 6.5CM Build (100-1300YD do-all)

    Fellow shooters, Im looking to re-barrel my SPS-T in .308 which has sat in the safe since I had a custom 308 built for me. Hoping the 6.5CM will work well as a tactical / practical round for mild competition, small to medium size game and occasional ELR. Looking at putting together a...

    advice for a 200+ yard .308

    First, I challenge your ability to shoot 3x .22's into a 30cal hole at 100 with the best equipment on a windless day. Some of the best shooters I know, who shoot mostly .22 cant do that on demand. Thats with measuring rim thickness, meticulous data logging, wind flags and pixie dust. Now -...

    Rifle Scopes Steiner Military/Tactical Scope is there a difference between them ??

    I love the Steiners but I wouldnt go that far... I have an SB 5-25 and my partner has a Stein 5-25. Both with MSRs. We both objectively agree the SB is "better" (optically, build quality, clicks etc) but we both agree that its not $1K better.

    Rifle Scopes S&B : New 3-27x PMII -- On the site!

    I love my S&B (5-25 PMII MSR) and my experience with Jerry and the service center was one of the best customer service interactions I have ever had. While I would appreciate a lifetime warranty the new two year deal wont scare me away. (also, surprised you stepped in this George)

    Photos 'Snipers' in Aleppo, Syria.

    The russian sniper is an overplayed scare tactic. Im sure SAA whisper about chechan snipers as well. The same relationship is seen in between israel and its enemies. From what ive seen neither FSA nor SAA have displayed signs of advanced training or ability.

    Rifle Scopes Top end magnification to get to 1000 yards in .308?

    While i think 16x is enough power to get out to 1K i find it difficult to spot misses with anything less than 20. Yes feild of view helps on lower power scope but my eyes the +20x is ideal. I have the SB 5-25 MSR and have shot SS 5-20, Steiner 5-25, NF F1 at 1k. Bang for buck Steiner 5-25 with MSR
