The Everyday Sniper Podcast Final Knowledge Bomb Edition

The Everyday Sniper Podcast Final Knowledge Bomb Edition 
Hey Everyday Sniper Fans, finishing up the Knowledge Bomb Editions, I am done with that. I sort of let you down this season with scattered podcasts, but I plan on remedying that problem.Moving forward for the winter we will podcast a bunch and bring you more episodes.  We have a renewed sense of urgency if that is a thing, so we want to bring it too you.
So what we have here is a wrap up, a wrap up of the previous season of shooting. I breakdown some of the observations from our year on the road.  Lessons learned so to speak. I think you'll enjoy this episode, it has some knowledge bombs in it. 
I plan on coming back heavy moving forward.  So standby, the Everyday Sniper is coming back.

Topics include:
Background into the Guardian Long Range Competition
The Cameo Facility, Myth vs Reality
Dorgan the Match Director
Why a Guardian Competition
Guardians are some of my favorite matches, Gary hosts 5 or so a year.  Currently there are two Guardian Matches Left, November at Arena and December in Texas.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: The Wicked Rabbit

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: The Wicked Rabbit 
9 O Clock at Night, Denver Colorado, Marc and Frank do a podcast because we love you guys.  Coming back from Iowa after a Class at Sure Shot Range.  John has a great country range in the middle of a beautiful Iowa field with a great target package.  
The current conversation sorta speaks for itself; we are dropping gold nuggets with every sentence in this episode. It even surprised me how many knowledge bombs we are dropping.  Dresden faired better when you consider this episode.  
Head over to Sniper's Hide, and let me know what you think. I think you'll want to talk about this episode as we pushed buttons. 
Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, and thanks for being a part of the Everyday Sniper Podcast.  

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb Nebraska Class AAR

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb Nebraska Class AAR 
Welcome to the Everyday Sniper Podcast, Marc and I just finished an outstanding class in Nebraska at JM Precision with Jake McDaniel.  
The students were a ton of fun, and we learned a lot, like always with these students.  Our goal is to make the best precision rifle classes out there in the least amount of time.  We build marksmen quickly and effectively. 
In this episode, Marc and I break down our observations and discuss the things to help the shooters out there.  We talk fundamentals of marksmanship to the Nth Degree and how those who lack fundamentals might see things slightly differently. 
We had a few minor issues, but as always, I have to do a call out to the companies when we have an issue that is repeating, and we feel fixable; we love the products and hate the problems. 
As always, thanks for listening, sharing, and being a part of the Everyday Sniper.  Also, you can find the Article I mentioned on Sniper's Hide in the Practical Marksmanship section of the Forum 
Enjoy - we do ! 
 

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Marc and Frank Hunting Rifles In Alaska

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Marc and Frank Hunting Rifles In Alaska 
Coming off our July Class in Alaska, I wanted to talk about hunting rifles. We see a lot of hunting rifles. Honestly, I am tired of companies repeating the same thing since 1958. 
It's a simple fix that needs to be made at the manufacturer's level, you guys are the problem.  Consumers will use what is available, and if you give them garbage, they will adapt with garbage training. If you give them a rifle they can shoot, they will use it.  
Anyway, it was a soapbox moment that I think is easily fixed if people will just make the barrels a bit better.But follow the AAR on the Alaska classes, and new classes listed, enjoy

Who knew Marc was such a Freebird Fan, but man, he put his hand in his pocket and bought a round of Freebird for the Lodge.Coming off a 10-day trip to Alaska, the Marc and Frank Show is in full swing and we are marking Marksman.  
I lost my voice so my side of the conversation is a bit weak, for that I apologize.  When you play as hard as you work, you tend to burn the candle at both ends.
In this episode, we talk 
PR 1 In Alaska

Arctic Guardian Competitions

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb Edition Colorado Dreaming

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb Edition Colorado Dreaming 
Colorado dreaming on such a sunny day. Marc and Frank just finished a 3-day course in Fort Morgan Colorado.  Had excellent students come out to shoot with us and had a ton of fun. 
With the Colorado Wind Gods being as angry as they have been, it provided an excellent opportunity to learn how to shoot in the wind.  We absolutely subscribe to the Gun Number model and even into our 4th Wind Bracket.  
Once we fixed the student's fundamentals, we marched them out to a mile. It was awesome seeing all the impacts at distance.  
Value-Added Bonus, Jack Master, Ted H came into town and thrilled us with new information and well as helped all the students with competition shooting skills.  Ted is an excellent resource and we absolutely loved having him here.  Excellent class all around, really appreciate all the students that arrived.  
Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, and thanks for being a part of the Everyday Sniper. 

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb Edition: Rise of the Valkyrie

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Knowledge Bomb Edition: Rise of the Valkyrie
It's alive, it's alive, it's alive !!! 
My Accuracy International AX Short Action is now chambered in 224V. Yes you heard that right, my AI is an 224V and it hammers. 
So while I understand the Valkyrie is a dead cartridge, I don't see it surviving history, I do enjoy using it today. I got access to an 6.8 Bolt head and spun up a barrel, now I am ready to roll. 
Performance was impressive, if you want to see the results head to Sniper's Hide and do a search. 
But in this episode I breakdown my thoughts on the subject. Let me know what you think? 
Thanks for listening sharing and being a part of the Everyday Sniper 
Enjoy
