    Headshots Vs Centre Mass

    Well, one cannot simply wait for a PC shot for the comrade media to score. The bad guy presents a target, you take. Sometimes the bad guys don't present a PC shot. They've not been trained to cooperate. Blame the bad guys.

    shooting beyond 500 yards

    I've shot near the equator. Man! What a ride that bullet takes! I threw a rock to verify. Wow. Almost had to duck. Gotta add atmospheric wind drag to Coriolis calculations. :-)

    Headshots Vs Centre Mass

    Yep, in Fallujah, the grunts were investigated as they had soooo many head shots the media assumed they were "murders/close up assassinations". It was good marksmanship skills, steady nerves and the dome was the only viable target.

    Dummy round question

    Ever notice anyone using full-auto? They don't flinch at all.... Ever. It's all in the mind. Flinching is you expecting to do the job your rifle is supposed to do. It recoils, not you. You have other things you should be doing. It is your mind. Evidence? You try to convince yourself...

    Accuracy up, Consistency up, but shoulder really sore...

    I typically bruise a bit with my .300 mag after many rounds. It simply means I was not out jogging in a park with other girly men. Heck, shoot enough rounds, 5.56 will do the same. Try knitting. Just read the instructions first. You can poke your eye out... Or - try snugging tighter...

    Would I be missing anything by skipping the bolt and going straight to semi for LR?

    Why is a .308 bruising my shoulder???

    Prone- Slung and Biopod

    Army spends lots of money with their marksmanship unit. Marines don't. When I was in the Marines, we spent a week snapping in. Meaning positions held in a relaxed mode for hours. Mastered slings too. Bruises formed from mid-elbow to shoulder. That stretching and relaxation built up a solid...

    Breaking for the barrel to cool.

    Uneven barrel cooling might be an issue with some of these configs. Go Back to round barrels. Fluting gives uneven cooling.
