The Everyday Sniper Episode 258: AK Ramblings with Marc & Frank

The Everyday Sniper Episode 258: AK Ramblings with Marc & Frank
We are out of lockdown up in Alaska teaching the Precision Rifle Classes with Marc Taylor. 
Sort of a shotgun approach talking about the lessons learned from the two classes we just finished up. Their mistakes are your training opportunities.  We try to pass along these knowledge bombs as we see them, and what we did to correct them. 
The was part of the feedback we got, people have taken classes from others, and they feel our hands on approach fixes the little things.  Stuff other people miss, we pick up, analyze and repair. 
We carpet bombed you this episode because we had German Jets on our tail.  
As for the delay I was on strike, so LOL

Part 3 of the Berger No BS BC Campaign this is combined with articles posted on the Berger Website. Stop by to see their new products and articles from Bryan.In this episode, Bryan talks about the effects of a BC at both long and short ranges in terms of accuracy.  We look at Precision in terms of group size and accuracy based on the location of the group center.  So with this in mind, listen to Bryan break this down. 
We move from bullet BCs to some wind deflection talk, before heading over to the .22 rimfire discussion.  I really wanted to hit on 22s as they are so popular and this conversation is a masterclass. 
Thanks to Bryan and Emil for participating and answering all your questions and to Capstone / Berger / Lapua for making them both available.

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.
