The Everyday Sniper Episode 212 Rear Bags, Bipods, Comments

The Everyday Sniper Episode 212 Rear Bags, Bipods, Comments
Back at it this week, I just shot a short video, did a rear bag lesson and wanted to talk about some lessons learned.We see a lot of different shooters, situations, and equipment when teaching a class. That experience allows us to look at things happening with our precision rifle shooting on a microscopic level.  We really want to breakdown this process into the smallest components possible. 
So with that, we see a lot of rear bag movement which causes some vertical stringing and weird flies with guys because the bag is moving out from under the stock.  Choosing the right rear bag is just as important as choosing the right scope. 
Look at yourself, use your phone to film your technique and really just hyper analyze the process.
We do these podcast episodes for you the listener, and the shooter.  We want you to know the, "why" behind these things we talk about every week.  The why is hte most important aspect of all shooting.  Answer that correctly and the rest falls into place. 
Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing and thanks for being a part of the everyday sniper podcast 
 

The Everyday Sniper Episode 211 Vacation Fundamental Truths

The Everyday Sniper Episode 211 Vacation Fundamental Truths
I am in LA but wanted to knock out a quick podcast for everyone.  I did a full day at Disney and right now I am getting ready to head to see Jim at Prime Ammo.In this episode, I talk about the levels in our heads, thanks to a post made by Regina M on Snipers Hide. This illustrates in living color how our head works in terms of viewing the reticle through the scope. 
This brings me full circle to talk levels and fundamentals.  I breakdown the prone position again and how our bodies respond to different elements of our shooting. I think this short but powerful episode will resonate with a lot of new shooters, and some open-minded older
shooters too. Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing and don't forget to comment.  Either in the Podbean App or on Sniper's Hide in the Everyday Sniper Section of the forum. 
California is the state of camel toe,  and shall forever be regarded that way.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 210 Joe Salvador of Savage Arms
As promised, here is my interview with Joe Salvador from Savage. We are really excited for Joe to be on the podcast.  We often talk about a lot of companies and you never know how it will be taken. Joe reached upon hearing some of the issues we had with various Savage Rifles and wanted to address them moving forward.Savage has been quietly paying attention and making adjustments to support the tactical precision rifle world we shoot in.  I think he does a great job of laying it out where Savage is headed moving forward.Look for them at SHOT Show in 2020 as there is new stuff announced and new products on the horizon.Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, and thanks for commenting. 

The Everyday Sniper Episode 209 Epic Rant, Hate me, Don't use my Site, Easy.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 209 Epic Rant, Hate me, Don't use my Site
So I have absolutely nothing to say today, and I am just uploading a podcast because that is what I am supposed to do. This creates a dynamic and often volatile situation where I rant about stuff that pisses me off.  So with that in mind, I drop quite a few F-bombs in this episode.  
I was home yesterday on Sniper's Hide and again I was lectured about my opinion of a competition that was posted in the forum.  Don't lecture me on my own website, if you don't like my opinion, go away.  I did not invite myself to your house, you came to mine. 
Otherwise, I don't say a lot in this episode, I am just venting about random bs. 
Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, thanks for being a part of the Everyday Sniper Podcast.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 205 JP Rifles, Adam and Team Safari

The Everyday Sniper Episode 205 JP Rifles, Adam and Team Safari
I am down in New Mexico at the Blue Steel Ranch shooting the Competition Dynamics Team Safari Match with Adam Burt GM of JP Rifles 
This was a last-minute addition to my weekend. I have never shot a CD Match beyond the early Sniper's Hide Matches they hosted for me.  So this is a fulfillment of a bucket list match. The nice thing with a CD match is blind stages, under field course conditions.  
We paired up and are having a blast shooting this event. 
I am having great results shooting the 224 Valkyrie in my JP and Adam is shooting their version of a bolt rifle built off their APAC Chassis an Ultimatum action in 6.5PRC.  The rifles are shooting great and we are having a straight-up blast here. 
Thanks to CD for an awesome event, thanks to Adam for inviting me and thanks to JP for making a kick-ass stick to launch my 88gr love pills downrange.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 204 Tools, Talk, and Textbooks
Welcome to the Everyday Sniper, you have Frank from Sniper's Hide bringing you the latest updates from inside my brain.In this episode, I am talking 
Tools, toolkits, fix it sticks, Borka Tools, all the stuff you need and should have to keep your rifle up and running correctly. It's important you carry a set of tools with you when it comes to working on your precision rifle. We recommend the borka tools or fix it sticks as they make mission-specific tool kits for your rifle systems. 
Next, I get you caught up on the group buys happening at sniper's hide.  We currently have a Cadex Defense chassis buy as well as a Prime Ammunition discount code being offered to members of the Sniper's Hide Community. 
Finally, I talk a little racing.  I like NASCAR and watched the race on Monday, so I speak a tiny bit about it.
