  -  laruetactical @dbaz88 ... Ed said the rifle he dumped his bolt action for was driving tacks ... seems cut and dried to me. 10 likes

  -  laruetactical @m4ttwick ... Dunno, I wasn't there. I was hosting a warfighter elk hunt at the time (in Colorado) and one of the warfighters informed me about the win and the fact my rifles were used. It was all news to me. 9 likes

deo_vindice1984 What specific model do you suggest for precision rifle shooting in .223? I have a competition I'm preparing for as secondary shooter and need to be able to engage out to 850 with an AR platform in .223

  -  mac_man_47 @laruetactical haha! That's my mind exploding! The complexity of their estimates and how quick they were, especially using relatively new guns, is awesome! I have a lot to learn about distance shooting 1 like

  -  laruetactical @mac_man_47 ... My eyesight and my hearing make me seem like a professional comedian. 😂 Oh by the way, Chance and Ed were the only team that hit both of those 800 yard LaRye targets, and they did it - Bang !!Bang !! 🎯🎯 1 like

crossfitsniper I'll always cherish the OBR you let me and my partner use at the 2017 ISC. Such a fantastic rifle! Thanks for always being a great supporter of the Mil/LE community. 1 like

thecodystone Any plans to put the MRGG-A 14.5" 6.5CM in production for the public? SA version of course. I'd love one with a TranQuilo P&W.
