JD, Here is a little bigger craft, since you mentioned them. This guy has jets that rotate, you can reverse them so you can stop on a dime. You can also turn them to go sideways, which is a great feature on shallow water and when pulling into and out of tight spots. It is a very manueverable...

JD, I work for a private military outfit that hires former special operations and a small # of leo's with certain skills. For security reasons I cannot give the company name out over the net. The smaller rigid hull inflatable is ours. The larger one is British. Their handling skills with these...

Here is another shot. By the way, we are just playing around with some British ops guys. Kinda taking a stress break on a river. Getting familiar with some different watercraft. Basically just snapped some "cool guy" shots, purely for entertainment on the day off. Nothing "high speed" or...

I think I just figured out how to post a pic on different computers. Figured I would give it a test run.

Ceg1963, Thanks, I know it was an odd request. However, it is far from the strangest thing I have seen while doing this job. One thing is for sure. The skills used in long range hunting and competition have a very real use in other environments. Safe shooting, IdahoWoodsbummer

Thanks for those who have helped. There is a very simple and typical government logistical reason why this situation occurred. However it would be inappropriate for me to get into why some things did not arrive and why we have had to make do for the time being. It would be funny and most of us...

Bart B That kind of technical info that you have refered to in your previous posts is exactly why I figured to ask this site for assistance rather than the internet sniper sites. If I had known prior to deployment I could have put data books and all my other dope on a thumb drive. Live and...

Thank you all very much for the info. Carlock, I will be emailing you shortly. sometimes I have some difficulties retrieving and sending email on certain days so if you do not get a timely reply bear that in mind. The guys got out to an airfield and got a hundred yard confirmation. This info...

I should have mentioned. This is NOT M118LR which is a 175gr MK. It is M118, It is Lake City.It has a very tiny hollow tip but is classified as ball, I just found the data, it is 173 grain If someone has a gas gun ar10 or sr25 with that ammo it would be great to get actual velocities...

I have an important request. I am in a remote part of the sandbox right now and need some data badly. I cannot go into very many details for OPSEC and PERSEC reasons. I am doing a contracting job. Here is the scoop. My coworkers are not able to get onto a range longer than 25 meters and I do...

Wow, It worked, Kinda. I took one of the 35mm pictures and scanned it. These are the deer. Sorry about my "shyness". Due to the nature of my employment I would prefer to keep pictures of my ugly mug off the internet. Anyways Thats one of the pictures. I have a better one taken with a digital...

I don't know how to get the pics posted. Every time I try it tells me my file is too large and I am not smart enough to make my file smaller. The coyote was WAY above us and the wind waschanging at different elevations. He could not figure out where he was being shot at from. I actually used my...

Just a quick note about our mule deer hunt. Opening day before light my dad and I were up in the rimrocks at the top of a mountain in south central Idaho. we just barely made it up there after our pitch black walk in. The sun just barely peaked out when I sat down and started glassing. I was...

I would not choose either. I would go with a Tikka T3 and never look back. All that I have shot, in all calibers have been outstanding. In deer camp this year there were 4 guys shooting T3s out of seven hunters and all were tackdrivers.
