I am not looking for a fight I wasn't really building a rifle for fighting other humans if needed it could certainly be used for such.
what makes a handy all purpose rifle with few modifications can make a good general purpose battle rifle also.
most of the living things I shoot are actually from inches or feet for dispatch to 150 yards I enjoy shooting farther I have a steel target at the farm set up at 420 that I like to ring.
I like to Appleseed, Project Appleseed teaches rifle marksmanship and Revolutionary war history I am a volunteer with the program.
https://appleseedinfo.org/in Appleseed there are 4 stages to the course of fire
stage 1 , 100 yard scaled target on the 25 meter range or a full size target at 100 yards on a KD(known distance) range 2 minutes 10 rounds standing no reload.
stage 2 , 200 yard scaled target on the 25 meter range or a full size target at 200 yard on the KD range , 55 seconds , transition from standing to seated/kneeling , load , reload mags loaded 2 & 8.
stage 3 , 300 yard scaled target on the 25m range or full size at 300 yards on the KD , 65 seconds , transition to prone , load , reload , mags loaded 2&8
Stage 4, 400 yard scaled target on the 25m range or full size at 400 yards onthe KD (points double) 5 minutes , start prone , 1 mag 10 rounds
you, your rifle and sling you may use a shooting mat but no rest or bipod .
the shooting portion of the program is built around making solid 4moa shooter , people get lucky and will score qualification without all the lessons mastered but over 4 stages with the time limits they don't often luck into a score.
after a person has qualified Rifleman the goal is that they maintain the skill so that a qualification score isn't their best day but their every day , 90 degrees out sweat in your eyes and hot brass landing on your back and shoot a 210 or better, laying in the snow in Febuary , in an all day drizzle in October , after just a few hours sleep and a long work week.
I am not interested in fighting at all. If we can get 51% of citizens trained to this level I don't think we would every fight again.
the real goal of Project Appleseed is to make better citizens , ones who understand liberty , how our forefathers earned it , what a gift it was to us their heirs.
that those better citizens will preserve liberty and take an active role in self governance. serve their duty as constituent, voter , juror , possibly as a representative and if needed a soldier .
I posted this to show the similarities in what the video and thunder ranch trainer calls the ultimate urban combat rifle and a solid general purpose shooter that does well in Appleseed kd. Although I really didn't intend to talk about appleseed when I started the thread.
I know some want to be a Rambo but you are correct a meth head who steps out of an alley could take out rambo.
As much as rifle looks like a individual sport , it is best done as a team sport , build your team build their skill.
don't be rambo, be a team . but more importantly be a team in self governance.
