This episode, Chad and Francis cover all things front support, including bipods. But not all bipods are the the same and no bipod is PERFECT for all scenarios. They duo deep dive on the mechanics of what your rifle experiences during recoil on a bipod and how it can be optimized for precision. Construction tolerances, materials and design can all have a direct impact on your shots

This week, Chad and Francis discuss when experimenting is the correct approach to advance your skills. Sometimes the easiest path forward is to follow those that blazed the original trail. However, there is a fundamental difference between "Learning" and "Exploring". In the learning phase of new skills, working within known boundaries helps set a baseline for successful outcomes. I

Our sport has continuously evolved to find new levels of precision and accuracy. From bullet design to chassis to optics, virtual no area of precision rifle shooting is the same as it was even 10-15 years ago. However, bag fill is one of the most important areas of our sport that SpexLite is making major advances in material science to increase precision and minimize weight. We tal

Francis and Chad pick up where they left off the last episode, finishing the GREAT DEBATE: Mils vs MOA vs IPHY. While this may seem like a trivial or mundane topic, it hits some solid points on how they "think" in terms of units as often as possible. Learning the units of measure for angles vs horizontal equivalents is critical to your journey in precision rifle. You WILL be a more
