What now? Been doing a LOT of running lately.

i seriously doubt most of the weapons in use at the “birth of our country” could reliably hit a man sized target at 500 meters. but thats just my view.

Someone should tell Nancy Pelosi that GUNS, not abortion, helps the economy.

You have to practice to get good, and you have to practice to stay good.

If "first person" shooter games help, I'm the next incarnation of Carlos Hathcock for snipers. NO? I figured as much. ~sigh~

Practice! until I get good!

Then I’ll practice until I get real good,

Then I’ll practice somemore until I can protect my family, Then I’ll practice until I get good enough to practice with our Vet’s at home!

Then I will learn to protect my COUNTRY, with fellow VETERAN help!

Then I will practice everything I learned because my country needs me!

All throughout American history, the rifleman has been defined as a marksman capable of hitting a man-sized target from 500 yards away — no ifs, ands or buts about it.

Wow! That's a tall order. And a fine one. But, most combat takes place within 100 yards. So, I say, unless you're training for sniper, just practice and, "Be one with your gun".

Pretty difficult for most folks to find a 500 yard range to shoot at. Most are 100 yards, a few are 200 or 300. I suppose if you live near a National Forest you could set up your own, if the terrain allowed.

That was SOP in the Marine Corps. We had to qualify at 200, 300 and 500 meters or yards, depending on the range.

Buy lots of ammo, and practice, practice, practice!

SHOOT IT!!!

Good friend gave me a Remington 7400 .243 rifle.....the other day.

I placed a scope and a sling on it...and need to sight it in.

Any suggestions out there on bullets? Probably just hunt predators with it....unless one of my daughters wants to hunt whitetail with it.

TIA
