Reloading for any long range shooting
Long range shooting demands precision first over anything. Precision in how we engage the rifle, precision in how we pull the trigger, and definitely in what we feed our rifles. No matter how great and how straight the rifle or how trued the action if the ammo is not concentric you are toast.

Death by a thousand cuts.
It's hard to say if this is the worst part of it or if the psychological scars are worse and even though it never happened to me I was still close enough to smell it and let me tell you that was too close.

The pack is super comfortable even when loaded with my LMT Defense Rifle and long range hunting gear. My LMT rifles are all extremely accurate with one of them holding a world record for 2260 yards on target from the Hog Saddle Tripod. I equip each of my rifles with the Terminator... Read more...
US OPTICS SCOPES --Tools for the professional, the hunter, and the competitor.
US OPTICS has been around for a lot of years, in a lot of nasty places, where most people wouldn't dare to travel. US OPTICS scopes have also been the reason behind a lot of smiles whether it be that prize buck harvested or that Precision Rifle Series Match that the competitor just podium finished in. And there's a reason for this; actually, quite a few reasons. US Optics has the experience and the know how combined with crazy quality control that ensures each and every scope from their TS...
