16" Whisper and a 10.5" Blackout

Kings in Columbia had one a couple of weeks ago.

Man with gun kidnapped 50 kids. Well that's what the headline would be if he were a conservative.

I appreciate  the comments. She is on the honor roll, takes dance classes in jazz and ballet, and is in a creative thinking club. I figure if I keep her busy enough I won't have to worry about boys. There's a 600 yard midrange match on the 16th. We will be there if the weather isn't too bad. Dust off your rifles and come shoot.    

I've been shooting with my daughter since she was 4. I've made a few posts about her shooting out to 1000 yards. I will admit that if you don't know us, it is hard to believe that she shoots and handles a firearm as well as she does. At the end of F-Class season last year I took her to shoot a 600 yard match. She took 4th and was beaten by only masters and high masters. That match gave her the confidence to shoot in the first 1000 yard club match of this year at AEDC. The conditions were terrible for a first time shooter. 15 mph winds and heavy gusts approaching 30 mph. I shot my relay as fast as the target pullers could get the target back up so that she could have the maximum amount of time for hers. It took about 7 shots for her to get on, but she never lost her composer. Once she got on, she ran the gun like a champ. Although we both put up some rough scores, she went on to take 3rd place. I know it's only a club match, but seeing 3th place next to her name meant the world to her. I've been telling her that the manner in which she conducts herself at a match will command more respect than the scores she puts on the board. I believe she earned a little that day.

The Berger manual shows 1 in 12 for the 155 hybrid. With a BC of 0.483 and the 150ish extra fps, you may have enough to get it done.

1 in 10 will stabilize 155s just fine. If you don't have a problem with 175s try the 155 or 155.5.

Have you tried any 155 lapua scenars?

Did you shoot lane 4 first shooter?

I was there with my little girl.

I've been eyeing one also. What about a Stevens 200?

Go to about the 2:00 mark. The tank cooked off just like this one.   http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=5a5_1364935662

The little girl can shoot.

It's a 6mm BRX

I'm doing a suppressed 45 ACP now.

A lot of police are not gun guys. I thought it was a good episode. At least he didn't say " don't forget to pull back the little thingy" which is what my wife calls it.

Shot some 600 yard F-Class today. I ran the gun back and forth to the line and set up the rest. I also pulled the targets. She moved the spotter and scoring disc in the pits. She did all the scoring and spotting for her shooting partner. I watched through a second spotting scope for the first 10 or 12 shots to make sure she was scoring correctly. She never missed a beat so I stopped watching. She shot great for a first time shooter. She has a problem with dropping an 8 when the wind dies down. She calls the gusts fine. We had wind running from right to left and all of her blown calls were to the right. I couldn't be more proud of her and how she ran the gun. She was super excited all day and has been bouncing off the walls.

LOL. I just adopted two boys and a girl about a month ago. I had her run 70 rounds through it yesterday. We needed to fire form brass and simulate a match. She would bang out 20 wait 45 minutes and bang out 20 more and so on. We've been working on how to set up and run the gun, MOA, and mirage observation. She's picking it up faster than I thought she would. It is funny to watch the guys at the range watch her run the bolt on the gun like she's been doing it for 20 years. Lots of " How old is she" and  " Who made that stock"

Savage action that has been timed and trued. PDC chassie stock. Benchmark barrel. Nightforce BR 12 x 42 scope. The gunsmith work was done by Spook.

None of the children were related to us. DCS dropped them off at 2am about a year and change ago. The only information we had was that they were siblings and the little girl was blind. After we found out their back story we knew they were not leaving our home. Now I have a German wife one bio child and three Italian kids. Watching Discovery Channel on the anniversary of D-Day might get interesting.

Today the judge signed adoption papers for the three rug rats we've had in our home for the last year. My wife and I now have a 10 year old, 3 1/2 year old, 2 1/2 year old, and a 1 1/2 year old. My baby girl is now a big sister. It's finally over.    

It was my birthday as is today.
