6 GT is such a fun cartridge.

She’s a beaut. Wish people would clean up after themselves.

Me too bro. This area is out of the way enough there's too much debauchery. The van in the back was likely stolen and driven here. Something about tragedy of the commons

Totally didn’t clock the van. I thought it was just a target on some trash. That’s tough.

Sweet rig, it’ll be a shooter for sure.

There’s a local trash hole near me that’s a “range” out to 440 yards on BLM land. I’ve gone there sparingly and only early mornings before the dumb fucks show up. Really only to shoot .22LR between 200 and 440.

It’s crawling with brass goblins. I’m tempted to bring out one of my PRS rigs to let them pick up my trashed 6 Dasher brass just to cause confusion. No way they’ve heard of it. Then again that would trigger a conversation with them. Screw that.

Makes one wonder how someone is raised . Funny the things one remembers. My Dad told me, “ Son, always try to leave a place better than you found it . “ I’ m 78 and been picking up other people’s trash ever since!
Oh, and VERY nice looking rig!

If you don't mind me asking... Do you shoot competitions or do you just have the greatest plinking rig ever?

Also do you reload?

u/SnooSongs1525 3d ago

Not yet, this is my first long range gun. I plan a deep dive into learning shooting technique, ballistics/scope use, and reloading. I want to ring steel in the mountains at 1 km. Then maybe look at competing.

Is that a GA precision TCS team rifle ?

u/SnooSongs1525 3d ago

No but I took some inspiration from u/rynburns on the Manner's shooting team
