The NRL Hunter series is a precision rifle competition designed to test a shooter’s ability to locate, range, and engage targets under simulated hunting conditions. NRL Hunter prioritizes fields hooting, efficiency, and adaptability over pure mechanical accuracy. This guide outlines key aspects of the NRL Hunter event, common challenges, and strategic takeaways for competitors looking to improve their performance.

(Does anybody still get this reference?) Seriously though – few companies survive a seismic shift in their core business as anything more than a shell of their former selves. Just ask RIM or Nokia about that.

Selecting the right rifle and caliber isn’t about hype or marketing—it’s about understanding what matters most for accuracy, consistency, and performance. Here’s a straightforward breakdown of the factors that should guide your decision: Your rifle’s inherent accuracy is the foundation of its performance, but different factors come into play depending on the bullet’s time in the air. Baseline Precision: At shorter ranges, accuracy is determined primarily by the rifle’s group size at 100 yards.

The site will be down for routine maintenance on Wednesday, 1/29 starting at 8am CT. The upgrade should be quick, so we only expect the site to be down for 1-2 hours maximum. View thread

Alright, here’s the deal with the Springfield Echelon 4.0C. It’s like the new kid at the gym—compact but punching way above its weight. This 9mm wants to slide into your concealed carry rotation and convince you it’s worth the spot. So, is it all show, or does it actually deliver? Let’s find out. The Lowdown Caliber: 9mm Luger. Because why mess with perfection? Barrel Length: 4 inches—long enough to hold its own, short enough to keep things discreet. Threaded option available for the “extras” crowd.

The Mammoth Sniper Challenge has once again served as a proving ground for gear, skill, and resilience. Among the key takeaways this year was a recurring issue: the limitations of laser rangefinders in demanding scenarios. While high-quality rangefinders like the Envision Mars (905nm & 1550nm), L3 Storm, and the binocular-born Leica Geovid and Vectronix Vector X excelled, lower-cost options often fell short.

That rifle hammered then and continues to do so now.

In long-range shooting, understanding what affects accuracy at different distances can feel like cracking a code for the first time. Time of Flight (TOF)—the time it takes for a bullet to reach the target—is a critical factor in this equation. Different aspects of performance that we look for as shooters with goals appear in different phases of this time lapse. Important metrics such as group size, initial velocity and BC, as well as Extreme Spread (ES), play bigger or smaller roles.

Black Friday is here, and while everyone’s hunting for deals, I wanted to share my experience with a couple of tools that I got to play with and share our honest thoughts about: the Shooters Global SG 2.0 and SG GO shot timers. I had the chance to test both timers with a variety of firearms, and honestly? I came away impressed. With the time I had, I didn’t find any major downsides—just features that made my testing sessions smoother and more effective.

Introduction Shooting bags have become increasingly popular across shooting disciplines, not only in those where they have traditionally been used as support for rifle on various positions, but also in areas where they were once less common. This growth in use reflects broader changes in the disciplines, where adjustments in rifle weight and support equipment are being made to improve hit percentage on smaller and smaller targets under decreasing par times each year.
