OFP2651 Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 Hello everybody! I grew up a military brat but I call Kansas home. I am currently enlisted in the USMC and stationed at Camp Lejeune. I love to shoot my rifle, but I really want it to reach out and touch something. The biggest range I can find is 500 yds, and as nice as that is, I know I can reach out farther. It is also difficult to get to a place where I can accurately zero my rifle I feel. I would like to zero it at 200m because I plan on using it to hunt as well as target shooting. I really joined to show off the build, see other's builds and get some more ideas to make mine more accurate and a better rifle in general. I am really ready for deer season to start up here in NC and get my fill of vension.

Welcome to the forums brother!
Rsquared Posted May 10, 2013 Report Posted May 10, 2013 Welcome aboard my brother. Big ol hello from Maryland.
USMCbassman Posted May 19, 2013 Report Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) I'm a little behind on the power curve here; however, check with MCCS there at CLNC if they open the sniper range on the weekends. I know here at CPEN they open at least one of the KD ranges for us to bring personal weapons out to shoot. I never make it out towards Horno (home of the 1k range) on the weekends to see if MCCS opens that one. Worth a shot though.... EDIT: Where about in KS do you call home? I grew up in the SE corner in Chanute. Edited May 19, 2013 by USMCbassman
