Brass catch, commercially bought

Shooting a group. This is for two reasons:
1) to document and record the sound that is heard at the target when shooting suppressed.
2) to document and record an actual shot group being fired.

ETA: since the blast from the gun is largely contained within the can (with some blown back into my face), its interesting to note that this setup works well if there's only one target, be it paper, 4-legged, or otherwise. I do not expect to be able to get a 2nd shot off quickly enough to engage another prairie dog, hog, speed-goat, or whatever. The first shot counts for a lot!
Wow, impressive shot groups. You were right about it being difficult to tell when you shot. Thank goodness for the dust splatter from the berm.
Good shooting!
Installing a safety, pistol grip, and complete buffer assembly onto a lower receiver.
remember, when dealing with the lower, don't strip out any of the screws and TEST FIT EVERYTHING!!!

I've updated my videos by making a lot of them available for public viewing.

Awesome
Great shooting, and thanks for sharing. I expected to see a $3000.00 rifle with another $3000 telescope on top.
Ammo + barrel + operator = .1 MOA with a paltry 5.56/.223

Here's the cost break down for that rifle:
$525 (+$200 tax stamp) Gemtech Trek
$380 Rainier Arms Ultramatch barrel (I don't remember paying over $300 for it)
$230 Carbon Feather handguard
$65 used upper I had
$240 LaRue SPR-S mount
$650 used Leupold MK-4 LR/T
$150 BCG
$280 Spikes pre-assembled lower
$160 Geissele G2S trigger
Thats just shy of $2700 WITH a can and optic/mount, just over $1200 for the gun itself.
thanks to MarkCO for helping with the upper and Hoser for helping with the trigger.

Why Cartridge Over All Length (C.O.A.L.) can be deceiving (and not in a good way, sometimes) when you're trying to load accurate bullets.

How about doing an angry pistol blasting Bill Drill type of video. People always like to see angry shooting :)

This is also my first attempt at actually editing a video....

I won't have time to watch it all tonight, but you can already see what is going on in this video much better because the camera is closer.
thanks for the video-ing tips!!
I ended up watching most of it, and I thought it came together pretty well. Good job.
I watched a shorter video when I first put my lower together a few months ago. I actually learned some important things watching your video though. Mainly how the safety works (I thought I broke something), and how the castle nut on the buffer tube is supposed to be installed. I think you did a great job and appreciated the recognition for everyone at the end.

No angry blasting.............. The Big Panda weeps.....[Cry]
My technique for manipulating the bolt. This allows for several things:
1. It disturbs the rifle very little. This allows for a VERY easy follow up shot, especially if you're in a moderately unstable position, such as a barricade.
2. It allows you to find out if you're at the edge of pressures, checking to see if you've got sticky bolt.
3. It's very methodical, so it helps me to stay calm on the inside. Seriously. Running a bolt fast really makes me think that I have to hurry up and shoot, when the right answer is to have a much more 'zen' approach.
Also, this is the first video with my small camera that is specifically meant for shooting these videos. It's a couple years old, so it doesn't produce the highest quality, but it's small enough that I can take it most places and still get some pretty good footage. The added benefit is that since this is one of the first cameras to use all-digital the file size for the videos is such that I can get them uploaded relatively quickly (vs. my previous digital attempt, which used DV tapes, so rendering took forever and a day and THEN I had to upload a multi-gigabyte video)....

ETA: At the competition I went to on Saturday, I got asked, "How do you guys in the Army run the bolts on your M24s so that you don't move the scope off target?" Uhh..... I'm not a sniper, I just like shooting guns, BUT here's what I do and why I do it.
