I backed out of the score high rifle buy I had going for this reason. Word on the street is you build a hell of a rifle. I wouldnt want to be at a disadvantage lol plus your local and this is your show. Like I said before im more then willing to help support another club members business in any way possible and hey if I get a bitching shooter as a result of that then so be itAR15barrels wrote:

And when you are ready to win, have a R3 rifle built.

I agree with this. I shot my first match in January and I came in saying, I just don't want to get last place. I didn't but just barely. Aim high!johnlee wrote:
Chris, don't sell yourself short. If you enter the match thinking you're going to get last place, you probably will. A lot of people think this way. They would rather be right than surprise themselves by shooting well, e.g., "I knew was I was going to come in last place and my prediction was right. I'm always right."
Don't be like this. Come to the match thinking that you're doing to shoot as well as you ever did. And you probably will. Ho did that his first match. And he got third. I was stunned but Ho wasn't surprised. He had decided beforehand that he was going to shoot well. And he did.
And even if you come in last place, let's examine that. Did you really finish at the bottom of the barrel? Not from my way of looking at things you didn't. You still finished ahead of all of the internet big talkers who shoot half MOA all day long when they do their part but didn't show up for the match. You still finished ahead of those hispeed zombie killers who claim they get 10" groups at 1000 yards. You still finished ahead of the self-styled experts who "review" rifles and scopes all the time on their blogs and facebook pages. You still finished ahead of those "build" guys who are always endlessly building their builds and tell you they can't show up for their match because they're still in the process of building their builds. All of these big talkers would rather die than show up for a match and destroy their carefully crafted internet personas.
As I said before, it takes some guts to show up for your first match. It's not easy.

To be totally Honest my original post about last place was more of a joke than anything, I fully intend on coming out and doing my best and being totally happy with the fact that I did my best regardless of where I place. As I said you only live once and I'm gonna go for it. I do want to thank all of you for your positive encouragements I look forward to meeting you guys this weekend.johnlee wrote:

I think you guys are overlooking to usefulness of this reticle. I am also huge titanium fan and think it's sweet they have TI versions.
"Utilizing horizontal/vertical stadia in the upper right Large Object/ Motion Interdiction Quad (LOMR-QUAD, Army Variant) of the CounterSniper TDRM-DI Reticle.
With the horizontal/vertical stadia in the upper right, Large Object/ Motion Ranging and Interdiction Quad (LOMR-QUAD, Army Variant) the shooter can instantly grab a distance read on larger objects of known size and get a distance range accordingly. You will get far greater reads of accuracy calculating the measurement of a known size aircraft or truck sitting on a runway than you will trying to range off a mechanic at 1000 or greater meters. This was brought on by the deployment of 30mm extreme range-large target sniping systems, which would allow small teams with elevation advantages to deny vehicle motion from ranges as far as 6 kilometers away.
The Vertical Scale on the LOMR-QUAD, Army Variant is exactly the same in measurement and ranging operation as the Left Side Vertical Ranging Scale. At 1000 yards, each four lines equals 1 yard (35.3 inches specifically, but inclusive of the thickness of the lines it will read exactly 1 yard). These numbers run 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 etc on the left side of the left scale. At 1000 yards a reading of 16 covers a distance of 4 yards. For English calculations in yards use the left side numbers. Each space represents 1 quarter mil. At 100 yards, the distance for every 4 stadia is 3.53 inches, but inclusive of line thickness it can be read at 3.6 inches, exactly 1 tenth of a yard. At 500 yards, four lines equals 1 half yard (17.67" inches, but 18" including line width). At 1000 yards, an elk, 6 feet at the head, would be 8 lines high-corresponding to two mils of the centergrid. At 1000 yards the shoulder through chest area, roughly 36" would be 4 lines highcorresponding to 1 mil.
The right side numbers (on the left vertical ranging scale) equal meters, and they go 0, 5, 10, 15, 20... For metric calculations, use this scale, as each 5 stadia equal 1 meter at 1000 yards, 1 half meter at 500 meters and 1 tenth meter at 100 meters. This allows for sportsman or those with military backgrounds or ranging equipment to use the same optic without converting. The mil dot system stays the same, but the operator can range in either yards or meters.
The Horizontal Scale of the LOMR-QUAD, Army Variant uses exactly the same measuring scale as the Vertical Scale, but in the horizontal plane. For ranging large objects such as standard large frame late model pick-up truck, if you have only a partial view range off the height of the vehicle. If you have a full front or side view, range off the view that gives you the biggest sight picture for greatest accuracy. Simply place the closest corner of the vehicle or what you can see of it at the intersection of the LOMI-QUAD grid. A pick-up truck that is six feet tall at 1000 yards will be 8 stadia markings high. If you have a front view, a six foot wide pick-up at a thousand yards will be 8 stadia markings wide. If you have a side view of the truck at 12 feet long, at 1000 yards if will be 16 stadia markings wide. (Multiply meters by 10% if using metric to give you the readings in yards.) Correspondingly, if that pick up truck appears 16 stadia markings high it is 500 yards away, and so on."

In the process, I think my turret caught on my bag during recoil and moved my scope a tad because 5 shots shot low afterwards. I think I adjusted properly after but I feel uneasy . . . very very uneasy. I HATE SIDE PRONE!

I was getting my stuff together last night and noticed the scope mount on my AW was loose. I had removed the AW scope and mount to test-fit on my Anschutz and never got around to tightening the mount onto my AW. So I just tightened it up last night. I'm sure it's fine now.
