Hola From Tx

[Silvereyes87]

Just a blue collar guy from south Texas.
I've done a little deer hunting. Married into a family big on it. I enjoy plinking at the range pistols and my ar15.

I wanted to try my hand at long range shooting so I ordered a begara bmp in 6.5 creedmoor with a vortex strike eagle scope
4-24x50. Beginner guide to precision shooting by Ryan Cleckner book. A harris bi-pod. And downloaded strelok pro.

Now I'm just gonna put my head down and read before I ask questions and post.

Read a couple of beginner stickies here.
Thanks to everyone who contributes to the base of knowledge .

That's not really south Texas lol...
I'm on the border with Mexico. I never really understood why people from Kingsville and up think that's still south Texas haha. Anyways, I spend a lot of time in the Victoria and surrounding areas because I do a lot of work out at Formosa Plastics in Point Comfort.
