Rapid fire: I meant political accord, not accord on gun control. People in power perpetuate the idea that there is a culture war going on. I don't think there is, I actually think if it weren't for the federal government, we'd all be getting along much better. I look to social sciences because other...

Even reputable polling companies rely on people picking up the phone when a strange number pops up... If one is not reading the methodologies of polls, then they aren't doing the due diligence of staying informed, IMO http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2017/06/22/guns-report-methodology/ Th...

For public shooting without having to join a club your best bet is probably Del-Tone/Luth outside of St. Cloud. Not too far from the metro and they have 50/100/200 yd ranges. However they have very limited hours this time of year and are basically only open when the weather is favorable. Check thei...

Yes, we are losing the propaganda war... I asked the wrong question. What I want to know is what is the "propaganda war?" Judging by the amount of of hyperbole in your answer, it's probably good for selling NRA memberships and pink hats. /snark I don't think you're wrong, but the optimist...

yukonjasper, are we losing the propaganda war? I'll amend what I said: Lumpy, going off the assumption you are discouraged about the conversations you've had, and are dreading more conversations like those, I would propose: don't have them with people on the internet, and be strategic about who you ...

Lumpy, going off the assumption you are discouraged about the conversations you've had, and are dreading more conversations like those, I would propose: don't have them. I think it's ok to disagree about the 2A, and anyone worth spending your time talking with won't demonize you for your beliefs/val...

Not a TV-based thing, but kinda related: do a search for SCATT here on the forum. I've never used it, but my understanding is it's good for NPA, trigger pull, breath-rest, etc.

Was that your steel? If so thanks for donating it. Hey! Thank you for being a reference on my application in the first place. Best range for rifle shooting I've been a member at, and I haven't even shot off of the 600 yd line yet. I didn't actually know I was gonna leave it there when I first broug...

There was also the development earlier this week that a "person of interest" was accidentally named. Then today he was charged with selling modified "armor piercing" ammo. https://www.reviewjournal.com/crime/shootings/search-warrant-document-names-2nd-person-of-interest-in-las-ve...

I'm just trying to imagine your process when you have a good NPA and then the wind changes. Are you dialing windage changes on your rear sight, and then moving your hips to shift your NPA? Or holding over?

Hey! How's New Zealand? Post a range photo or 2 if you can.

That calendar on lifeofashooterswife.com is the most up to date one I've been able to find. Thanks Mia! I'm getting dialed in now in preparation of the new shooter orientation, whenever it is :D What did you different in the second string? I added graphics to the photos to hopefully clarify (please ...
