The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Tim Parkhurst USMC Scout Sniper Association 
Welcome to the Everyday Sniper Podcast, in this episode we talk to Tim Parkhurst President of the USMC Scout Sniper Association. 
Tim has stopped by the Everyday Sniper Podcast to talk about the SS/A Annual 03/17 Day Raffle. This year is extra special because the Scout Sniper Association is raffling off a custom, period-correct Winchester Model 70 Sniper Rifle. 
This Winchester Model 70 Sniper Rifle uses take-off parts from actual serving rifles and is a very special piece of history.   The USMC never really issued the Model 70 Sniper Rifle but instead fielded less than 500 rifles from WWII to Vietnam.  Stop by the Association Website for your Tickets. 
Tim was recently at the Gathering of Snipers during the Guardian Long Range Competition.  Gary Larson and the Guardian Matches are currently sharing hosting duties with the Army and USMC Sniper Associations.  Tim was able to stop by and visit.  The Gatherings of Snipers is a new get-together featuring Army and Marine Snipers. 
I really enjoyed talking to Tim, the flow is fun, and the raffle is important.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Check it, don't Wreck it 
Man I am getting old, like really old, my eyes are dying, my mind is frying, I would forget my own head it wasn't attached at the neck.  Making mental mistakes has been a growing concern of mine. I need checklists and notes now to remind myself too do things I used to do religiously.  Shooting is the same way, we get complicit, we get lazy, we have competition or training scars that appear when they are not wanted. 
I want you to think checklists, what are some checklists we can use to organize and manage our gear.  Where is your laser, how about a spare dope card, got a chamber flag in there ?  
In the military we used to practice getting stuff out of our packs in the dark.  Where do things go, how so you access them when you are in a hurry, can't see ?  All solid questions.
In this podcast I talk: 
Scope Mount 
Group Buys 
KMW Tac Ops Collaboration Rifle 
Gravity Ballistics with a 22 
May Cameo Class 
Hide TV Upgrades 
We have a lot of new upgrades getting ready to happen at Sniper's Hide.  Be sure to download the SH App in your favorite App Store to take advantage of the features.

The Everyday Sniper Podcast: Chris & Frank April After Action 
Hey All Everyday Sniper People, Chris and Frank here, we just got off a great first class, and wanted to talk about it.  We had groups of students for our first RifleKraft - Sniper's Hide 3 Day Training Event and it was just about picture perfect.  We had awesome weather, in fact it was like the weather was paying attention to our lessons and it was helping us.  We had the perfect set of students too, the right amount to variation in experience levels to max out our side of the equation. 
We started out with the fundamentals, I did a short presentation on the high points of that, at which point we went to 100 yards and Shot paper.  We created a nice set of drills to build the shooter from prone to tripod and back.  These were designed to fix technique and increase precision.  From there we took them out to steel.  
The second day we another quick presentation, Chris talked the Kraft Quick Wind method, and then immediately out shooting in the 12-18MPH winds so the main change, no disconnect from the lesson to the drill.  We are not talking a concept and waiting a day to shooter like was my method before.  The KQW just plain works too... yes I am being cagey about the Kraft Quick Wind, because we to solidify it as Chris' before it goes widespread.  Too many like appropriate other people ideas out there.  
The 3rd day was just plain fun, we started with Gravity Ballistics which we used, but not in the same way.  The winds were way too strong to try and do the worksheets in the wind.  So on Sunday we had mellow conditions and it made working the Gravity Ballistics so much better.   It's just a solid way of doping a rifle.  
Awesome time, excellent class, I appreciate all the students and the work Chris put into the effort.  More to come so again, thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, thanks for being a part of the Everyday Sniper Podcast.  Now get out and shoot !
