The Everyday Sniper Episode 255: John Nores Hidden War Author
This was a great interview, and slightly outside the EDS box.  John is an awesome interview, this is definitely a must-hear.  
John wrote the Hidden War, and his bio is: 
Since 1992, Lt. John Nores Jr. has served as a game warden with the California Dept. of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). There he co-developed the Marijuana Enforcement Team (MET) and Delta Team, the CDFW’s first comprehensive wilderness spec ops tactical and sniper unit, aimed at combatting the marijuana cartel’s decimation of California’s wildlife resources. Lt. Nores and his team have been featured on the National Geographic channel’s television series, “Wild Justice.” In addition, Nores is the author of numerous magazine articles and the book, War in the Woods: Combating the Marijuana Cartels on America’s Public Lands.

The Everday Sniper Podcast: Bryan Litz & Emil Praslick Berger No BS BC Part 1

The Everday Sniper Podcast: Bryan Litz & Emil Praslick Berger No BS BC Part 1
Welcome to the Berger No BS BC Campaign feature Bryan Litz & Emil Praslick.  
At Berger, we are obsessed with the science of ballistics. Consumers share our obsession, yet repeatedly latch-on to each new projectile touting the highest Ballistic Coefficient (BC) and its claims of “best-in-class” accuracy. What should we believe? Follow our Berger No BS-BC campaign and learn more about Ballistic Coefficients, the importance of their consistency, and BC’s effect on accuracy and precision.
We are honored at the Everyday Sniper to be included in this campaign.  Having access to both Bryan and Emil is unheard of, and we are grateful for the opportunity. 
#NoBSBC
These podcast episodes are being paired with the articles from Bryan over at the Berger website.  Also, we are including the ability to do a Q&A via the Berger Facebook Page and the Sniper's Hide Forum. 
Enjoy the podcast, and head over to Berger to read the articles. 
Thanks for listening, sharing, and commenting.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 249: Heavy Bullet vs Light Practical Application

The Everyday Sniper Episode 249: Heavy Bullet vs Light Practical Application
In this episode, I have two main topics for discussion.  Heavy bullets vs Light bullets and Mils vs Moa article on the new Sniper's Hide.This week I was able to go out and shoot two loads from the same source, one using a 140gr ELDM and the other using a 130gr Prime Load.  Both loaded by Spark Ammunition.  I had great conditions to compare the two loads, one, the heavy 140gr going 2650fps vs the 130gr going 2835.  This shows how the two perform at a distance when most people try to default to the heaviest load possible.  The lighter load was better, less drop, less wind because the speeds were up. Speed wins in our sport so we want to push this faster. 
Next, this week we upgraded the Sniper's Hide website. These were the changes I have been hoping to make for ages.  The new forum and frontpage are uniform and now use a single login.  This was my ideal set up when thinking about it.  So with the upgrades, my first article is a deep dive into Mils vs TMOA vs SMOA.  This question just won't go away, so I wanted to do a complete article on the subject.  Right now I have six pages of details and it's not stopping from there. I still have images to upload and to refine the text.  But it's comprehensive.This is the key, I want you to be a smarter consumer. I am not looking to sell you something, I am merely offering up information, what you do with that is up to you. Thanks for listening, thanks for commenting and thanks for being a part of the everyday sniper podcast. 

The Everyday Sniper Episode 248 Pajama Pandemic 10% Difference

The Everyday Sniper Episode 248 Pajama Pandemic 
Hour 1460 of the Pajama Pandemic, in this episode we hit on a few minor topics, the 10% difference.  I say 10% because that is usually the variation between the topics I am discussing. We focus on precision and accuracy so 10% matters to me.  If I said I could increase your performance by 10% you'd probably take it without any hesitation. 
When it comes to different reticles these small variations in design will have a pretty big, if not immediately noticeable impact on our results.  So with the new Army Reticle posted I wanted to go over my thinking when it comes to reticles.  
Accuracy International AT LE model. I recently built an AT LE or in this case, an AT with an AX Buttstock. This is a feature a lot of people wanted and AI did it in a blue gun LE offering so a few people were upset by this.  I detail how you can build an AT LE without a lot of hassle and my method will save you about $500 in the process.  There is more than one way to get an AT LE as a non-LE shooter, so here is my breakdown.
Be sure to comment, be sure to hit Sniper's Hide for more details, and be sure to stay safe out there. 

The Everyday Sniper Episode 247: Everyday Jeremy

The Everyday Sniper Episode 247: Everyday Jeremy
Going in a different direction with this podcast. A long time Sniper's Hide member Jeremy reached out to me and asked, would I entertain doing an episode with an Average Joe?  Of course, and Jeremy has a background in Law Enforcement, has been to training, and shoots competitively in his local area.  He is a listener of the podcast and member of the Hide Forum.  
It's about context, it's about putting things in perspective and how we manage success.  I had never spoken to Jeremy prior, but we are able to speak the same language and put forth concepts in the Everyday Way. 
So you might be sitting in your car listening to me, I hope you see both sides of the coin here.  
I want to thank Jeremy for being forward-thinking and reaching out to me. I think there is quite a few nuggets to mined from our short discussion. Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing and thanks for being a part of the Everyday Sniper
