That's priceless.I have spent plenty of time in the CH-53's and CH-47's and hanging from them, (spy rigging) repelling and fast roping.I have flown a Cessna 172 when I was contemplating getting my PPL. But I have always loved the helo's.Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
Not a bad group for stock stick, inexpensive glass and factory ammo.
So, Bobby...being the calculating trained warrior NCO that you are. Take the appropriate action, Execute!
your standard grunt level CQB is just putting rounds and rounds on scary stuff till it stops scaring you!

I was at a gunshop a couple months ago, and there was a custom Remington 700 action for sale at a cool $1,200. Oh how I wanted to snag it.

Try and lead we Army folks down the path then pull out the gotcha!Not gonna pull anything over on an Airborne NCO...You got him!
Bobby I almost forgot your request about the bipod.
Don...funny you mention that. I was out yesterday shooting a few rounds with the local LEO types. They were sporting some fancy hardware, most personal rifles they have built. We got into a discussion regarding long range shots. They were giving me a hard time for shooting a antique "sks yesterday" And I pointed out that it's ok with me if they can "widen" holes at 200 yards....when the one fella asked me why I was unconcerned with my group I said the following. "ever see someone shot? They don't hold still, so your sec shot will not be in the same hole...and besides who wants to shoot a person in the same place twice? DUH!Target shooters amuse me LoL
please tell me at 400M that was a standing or kneeling shot and not prone....
Even off the bench that was some darn good shooting if he only took one shot total. I don't own scope enough to even see a 30/30 case at that distance let alone hit one first shot.
Hey guys, looking to find a budget friendly stock for my .308 rifle. It's an older Remington 40X action with tuned 40X trigger and a custom 20" barrel with Obermeyer chamber. I've been looking for a decent stock, but the only downside with the ones I've seen, like the HS Precision stocks on the Rem 700 5R is that they all use the hinged floor plate (ie. BDL) bottom metal. I do like the MDT HS3, which is even made in Canada, but it's still up there in cost once you put a decent butt on it (ie. Magpul PRS or MDT Skeleton etc).I guess one question would be, is hinged floor plate really much worse than DBM? I've got an EGW scope rail and a harris bipod. But will be needing a scope as well. Scopes sure have gotten expensive since I last bought one a few years ago. I guess weaker Canadian dollar isn't helping either.
Yeah sorry, should have mentioned, it's not a hunting rifle, though I may get out on a trip in Alberta some year, but otherwise isn't for hunting. I would use it for target shooting and for PRS style shooting, although where I am we certainly don't have any courses like the GAP Grind or anything like that! We'd be doing mostly known distance shooting at static and moving targets etc. My action it kind of cool, as it has a rear clip slot for pushing a clip of ammo in (which won't be much good with a scope on there though).I'm also looking for a decent scope. I've used Nightforce and Sightron before and both were excellent, but NF is surely too expensive this time around. The Vortex any good? How about the Bushnells?
