My best friend and I will be competing in the Sniper Adventure Challenge next month in Wyoming. We'll both be running 6.5 Grendels. It might a little late for training up for this type of event if you're not all ready in shape, but I highly recommend signing up for such an epic test of one's physical, mental abilities and gear.

Yeah, if you haven't been seriously training, you will be finished fairly quickly.
Wish I could be there for med coverage again, but I'm broke physically and would be a casualty myself.
Just pulling med coverage in ATVs and dune buggies is a physically and mentally-demanding task over 3 days.
The teams that gut-check this event are basically slamming one of the SF selection programs into 3 days of self-torture and adventure.
Great people to interact with though, and the Competition Dynamics organizers run a tight ship.NRA Basic, Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun, RSO

Yup Mayhill those last few pics. My buddy Cody and I remember getting delirious marching with the dung beetles out in the middle of no where. The most tortuous SAC in my opinion, lol
Good times.
A few pics from 2014 and 2015

If you guys were in the RV, I came and chatted a bit with you for 2014 SAC I think. Spoke a bit with the guy who had been with Force in Oki.

Originally posted by Bemachinist View PostYup, that was us. I remember that. I was busy getting all my junk in order still. We shot like crap, but did decent enough overall to place second.
Those Rangers are some crafty, tough hombres, good stand up guys.
There was that one stage where you couldn't find prone or any recognizable position on the rock outcrop looking SE.
I have pics of another Team (Marine Scout Sniper Instructor and Scout Sniper team) on it.
Fuller and his partner cleaned that station in all the stages, which is insane when you factor in how smoked people are.
Some of the best shooters out there struggle, especially with pistol, after having walked all over tarnation for 2 days straight without sleep, at higher altitude, with minimal nutrition and aching backs, knees, hips, destroyed feet, on the verge of delirium.
When I watched those dudes clean that stage, I was very impressed. They just hit everything with carbine and rifle like it was easy, then went down and cleaned the pistol plate rack like they were running tuned race gun pistols with light loads, only they were shooting Glocks.NRA Basic, Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun, RSO
