So I got me a new Sniper rifle, yes I sold the Grendel and the PSS and all my NF scopes to get it. It's a DPMS AR-10 re-chambered for .416 which I hope to be good to at least 2 or 3 miles right? Anyway, hope you guys like the pics of this sweet rig and yes I even opted for the wood camo, it should blend in perfectly while I practice snipering from my forest hide!

Well it's not a paintball gun, don't hate because you're jealous. It's just designed to look that way so operators in country won't be hassled, it's called "urban-camo".... DUH! .416 bullets are obviously 416 grains heavy so when fully loaded the whole rig weights about 2 pounds, it's made out of Battlestar Galcatium after all.

It can shoot 977 and 1053 as well. Good observation, you must be a sniper as well, unlike these other posers.

Re: My new Sniper Rifle.

Wow! Ultra-super-mega snipery helical porting! You must be able to shoot quarter-inch groups at 1000 yards offhand all day long!

Re: My new Sniper Rifle.

How long did it take you to get that custom windage wagon wheel!? I'm looking to upgrade my scopes to those? I bet you can see the USA flag on the moon with that thing, even on a cloudy night!

I even shot the flag on the moon, those guys who say the moon landing was faked were wrong I know it's true because I put a bullet hole through it from my porch. Here's a through the scope pic and you can clearly see my bullet hole, next to the dude who's saying "oh shit he's a badass super-sniper"

Re: My new Sniper Rifle.

How much hold over on the moon shot? My uncles best friends dads coworkers cousins roommates sisters boyfriend can do that with a 22 mag using a counter sniper scope so you should at least be shooting mars with that thing.
 
Re: My new Sniper Rifle.

What ballistic computer do you use to account for the loss of spin drift in outer space? Does coriolis come into much play with a shot like that, or does the scope automatically compute that one too?

Re: My new Sniper Rifle.

I remember him telling me his Custom reticle was made by Crayola ? And their new tech, Sherman, is 4 years old and already designing reticles. THATS AMAZING!

So take your new ultra-sniper rifle outside and shoot the clouds. If your rifle can hit the moon changing the weather shouldn't be a problem at all.

Somewhere, I fear, someone is about ready to dedicate one very shit-scared gerbil to celebrating the OP's acquisition.

Do you even know what a rifle is? Do you even know someone who has a rifle? Other than Maser and his Daisy of course whom you seem to be pining for miserably.

You try so hard to be the site jester that I think for Xmas I'll send you a jester's hat - in camo, just to help you fit in better.

You're in trouble now, Veer's gonna smash his Happy Meal in anger at your disrespect of the flag and then make a heated phone call to your Mommy about it....
