The Everyday Sniper Podcast: My Level Best

I gotta level with you guys, you make it too easy to push your buttons. You know I am trolling but you take it so seriously and get all butt hurt over it, makes me a bit sad for you.

I honestly have no issue with levels, and I understand the use and employment better than you realize. Sure I firmly believe many are doing it wrong, but the more attention to that fact I bring, the more it will not happen. I am like the pied piper, make a little noise and you all coming running.

In this episode I talk:

Facebook Level Rant
Treadproof Class
Training for 2021
150 Scopes Tested, Results Posted on Sniper's Hide
Why I Troll :)

Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing thanks for being a part of the everyday sniper.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Patterns, we are looking at Patterns

Another quick episode to hold you over.

Patterns, we are looking at patterns, we use patterns to determine direction. I like patterns, I want to see patterns in your shooting because they tell a story.

Lighter 338 bullets are better, I demonstrated it this weekend to a shooter who was convinced the 300gr bullet was the better choice. Quicker and more consistent impacts, less drop, and even less wind in some cases, in other cases the wind was nearly identical.

Wind Class, we excel at teaching students to shoot in the wind. The wind is the wildcat, the wind is the great equalizer, you need to know how to shoot in the wind in order to hit targets in the wind.

Thanks to everyone who attended an MHSA Precision Rifle Class this year, we appreciate you
The season is winding down so thanks again, look forward to seeing everyone next time.
Cheers,

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Episode 276: Training and Practice

I think this is episode 276, I honestly don't know as I messed with the numbering up on the Everyday Sniper Podcast.
I have a class happening with Brian Whalen in New Mexico next month. Check out www.cprifle.com

Read Chris Roberts post from Facebook, that was a topical and important read, I hope you took notes. Better record-keeping means better results.

We lost Eddie, that makes me sad, even though I wasn't a huge Van Halen fan, I still like a lot of their music. Erupt in Peace Eddie.

Something to say, more to occupy your time, so as always, thanks for listening, thanks for sharing thanks for commenting.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Bored, I'm bored, so bored, totally bored.

Tired of repeating myself unless it's something important or something that needs to be said, but I personally feel I have said it all, more than once. With that, I am bored and just rambling like an idiot.

Sure there may be a nugget or two in there, but odds are, I am saying a lot of nothing in this episode which on the other hand might be fun for someone out there.

If you are as bored as me, comment, either in the podbean app or online at Sniper's Hide in the forum.

Hey Ryan, I am calling you out, or am I, could be, but maybe not, you just never know?

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Straight Jacket Armory with Bartlein Barrels, Supply & Demand

May you live in interesting times!

The firearm industry is on fire right now, demand has never been greater and we living through the perfect storm of violence in the streets, politics, and the pandemic. All this has combined to put a huge crush on the industry.
I have Nick from Straight Jacket Armory and Frank Green on the phone to talk about the supply chain in terms of barrels and components. With demand being where it stands, the barrel industry is a good weather gauge to measure the temperature of the water. Temps are high, and supply is low.

It's important to put these things into perspective and getting the perspective from Frank and Nick should be illuminating.
Thanks to both guys for breaking it down and thanks to all the listeners.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Episode 271:End of the Roadtrip

Back from our epic road trip across the United States. Ending in Tennesse at Treadproof we had a great group of shooters. They are making improvements as we speak and the target package was nice. Tons of small steel plates scattered across the range.

Overall we had a kick-ass group of students, they took instruction well, we had great after-hour parties wherever we went. So thanks to everyone for making it a memorable trip.

One learning experience is, rifle rests are not rear bags, sure you can compromise and use them, but to be honest, it's no the best tool for the job.
Lastly managed recoil, I think we need to clean up the free recoil references to call them managed recoiled or percent or recoil, something different that better describes the process. I think we are all doing it very similarly, but we are calling it something else each time, and this where the confusion comes from.
All good though, thanks for listening, sharing and being a part of the everyday sniper podcast. Cheers,
