The Everyday Sniper Episode 162 Rifle Set up, Busted Computer, Bipods

The Everyday Sniper Episode 162 Rifle Set up, Busted Computer, Class
In this episode I am recovering from my computer breaking this week. So I was without my main system to finish doing video work.  But from there I had some great feedback from the class.  So I take a deep dive into rifle set up.  We go over length of pull, we talk setting up the optics. It's about understanding the principles and how they apply to you.  I cannot see or feel what you feel.  Its just like your car. if I get in to drive I will move the seat.  So it's important you look at this and understand the why.  From there we talk bipods, as a question was asked. Which bipod for which situation. It matters, so it's important to talk about it.  You know air our feelings on the subject. 
Again, thanks for commenting in the pod bean app.  It's huge, and we appreciate it.
Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, thanks for commenting.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 159 MHSA Precision Rifle Class AAR
Just finished up the first MHSA Precision Rifle class of the season.  A great mix of conditions, and awesome students. I breakdown the MHSA Class for everyone hitting the high points, talking about the wind conditions we saw this weekend. Huge mix and swing of winds, from very little too far too much.  Yet we made it work and work well. 
Thanks to the students, thanks to Mike for the help, and to MHSA for supporting and hosting.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 156 Interview with Aaron Hampton of EoTech

The Everyday Sniper Episode 156 Interview with Aaron Hampton of EOTech
In this episode, we are speaking with Aaron Hampton of Eotech in regards to their Precision Rifle Optics, specifically the Vudu Line as well as some of the science behind the Holosight Technology.
With NRA around the corner, Eotech is bringing out their 1-8x scope coming off the successful launch of the 1-6x scope.  These short-range precision rifle optics are very popular in not just 3GUN but with the military and law enforcement crowd. 
There is a lot of great nuggets in this episode I would recommend more than one listen. Thanks to Eotech, Aaron, John, and company for reaching out to the Everyday Sniper. Thanks to all the listeners for being a part of the podcast and sharing.  Don't forget to comment in hte Podbean App and online at Sniper's Hide in the forum.

The Everyday Sniper Episode 154 NDs, Safety, PRN Video

The Everyday Sniper Episode 154 NDs, Safety, PRN Video
So a video was posted by Joel of the Precision Rifle Network regarding a situation he filmed at an event this past weekend.  The shooter during a string of fire had an ND on the line, hid it, and in fact took an extra point.  The video was being used to highlight a trend he has been noticing where safety has been falling by the wayside.  He wanted to reverse this trend but instead was himself attacked. Safety is everyone's responsibility and should be job one at a Match.  We are in close proximity to one another with high powered rifles. An accident intentional or otherwise can cause a lot of damage.  There have to be rules in place and those rules must be enforced.
I don't do this to point to the series, but rather in defense of Joel's actions as I feel he did the right thing the right way and he was being put on blast because of it. Safety, the 4 rules alone can be enough if you bother to enforce them.Thanks for listening and sharing and hope we all do better tomorrow. Cheers,
