Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Lots of people like to bash cheap bullets. The Hornady 55 FMJ is an excellent bullet.Originally Posted by SSChameleon
Just wanted to bring that up.

Tried to get in but the combo had been changed. I guess it's time to pay my membership fees.

Nope. The lock is just different. The numbers don't line up the normal way in the middle like most all locks. However the electronic keypad is fixed and working fine after some dude forced his way in and broke it.

Yesterday went to a private range and gave a quick primer about shooting to a group of 10-13 yr olds. We shot suppressed ARs and bolt guns. After the safety portion we went right to shooting. Seeing as there were four of us 'instructors' there (I am not a certified long range instructor...), we got the kids banging on steel... That's when I found out the back-story..
These were all kids that are growing up 'father-less,' or otherwise no one to teach them about these things. In the afternoon, we took them on a guided quail hunt, then the range staff cooked them up and we all had a great time.
Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.
That's awesome!
I sighted in my new Vortex 1x4 until the wind pissed me off. No wind at all until I sat down and put my finger on the trigger. Oh well... At least it wasn't cold and it held off from blowing hard until I got the job done.
yup, awesome!
Did some load development on my new rifle. Found 4 great loads. 2 with Sierra 142 SMKs and 2 with Berger 140 Hybrids (thanks XC700116). The best was the SMKs, 5 shot at .200". SD and ES was horrible! The best Berger group was .289" with an SD of 5 FPS and an ES of 8.
had a buddy (Bryan S.) with his new rifle and two new shooters go with. We were gathering data on factory 6.5 Creedmoor Hornady 140 A-Max. It shoots ok out to 750. After that the elevation was quite sporadic. But even with 10mph winds, gusting to 16 all 3 of them made hits at 1,000. The most impressive was the girl we brought. Really new to shooting, and no shit after a frustrating 500 yard hit (remember, new to shooting. Especially with a fixed 20x optic) she had a FIRST round hit at 750, and 1,000! Good day for sure!
Went to Raton NM last Sunday for the monthly Sporting Rifle Match. 60 Steel targets spread out over a 2 mile hike. Close target is about 250 yards and the far target is almost 900 yards. Had a good match and got to hang out with some good friends and then dinner afterwards. After the match I shot my AKA-Spook built 6 Grendel out to 690 yards. The JBM and Sierra numbers were right on. It took one shot to find the wind and then a 12 inch round plate at 690 was easy.
Fun day. I wish they were all that nice.

Agreed! Great day, shot my best score. Hoser did your 54 hold up?
If your post count is higher than your round count, you are a troll.
Shot all of my M855 before it becomes illegal in a month.

Road tested the AK with suppressor, Lots of suppressed long and hand guns AND took the FAL out of storage to stretch it's legs.
