“Democracy” has been a cancer on our Republic
Watch these slaves vote their God given rights away.
Door Spook Were supposed to be a free republic not a democracy. Cuz hypothetically when ya have a majority of genetic defectives that wanna make it a law to eat turds....what about the rest of the ppl who don’t wanna eat turds? That’s a pretty shitty law no?
Freedom liberty self governance. That’s what’s wrong with America right now... the statist. The ppl that cannot even pick their nose unless the government tells them. They seek and desire permission and directives for literally everything.

Even though this is 5 years old the info is still gold
Well it's about 4 years later and this video is more important than ever. Chock full of good practical important common sense information! Thank you sir for all the work you do and have done!
And as of today, even more important.
Rex, I appreciate your time and efforts in bringing this and other valuable information to our brothers today.
2019: Mosin Nagants selling anywhere between $200-$500. Like the $99 SKSs or the $175 Russian AKs, them days are long gone.
Like my Pop used to tell my momma every time she questioned why he need another gun, “Momma, it’s an investment for our children”. Most of Pops rifles are bolt action Winchester’s and Remington’s, maybe six or seven pump actions centerfire rifles and Remington semi autos. A few WWI surplus and a couple more WWII era surplus. A couple of M1As and carbines.
- Thanks Pop. You would be pleased to know that 17 of your 22 great grandchildren own and operate at least one of your rifles. The youngest five will be getting one as they “age up”. 🇱🇷
In a Red Dawn scenario remember the goal should not be to outright defeat the enemy. But to make it as painful for them to stay as possible. Because at the end of the day the regular Soldier doesn't want to be there.
Totally agree.
Well said ..
No country can or ever will invade the USA. Geographically almost impossible. They don't have the force projection, supply lines, nor the ability to avoid all of the defenses we have. Not to mention they wouldn't want to simply because every civilian will likely be armed.
The closest thing we will ever come to a Red Dawn scenario are the remaining white rural American's being hunted down by drones like we hunt down the Taliban.
What do you think what would happen if the United States falls into a civil war? Every day that's looking more and more likely. Best case scenario, we have a peaceful divorce. Even then depending on how many countries we split up into, our forces would be much weaker unless we have some kind of mutual defense treaty. Then you also have to look at our Southern border. We can't even stop or choose not to stop illegal immigration coming through. So it's not that much of a stretch for an invading Force to come through there, especially if whoever is the Mexican president is very anti-American.
@@stevenbaumann5911 We absolutely positively CAN stop illegal immigration from south of the border. We did for the majority of our existence as a country. It wasn't until the elite wanted to dilute the high IQ population with savages that it has turned a blind eye and the border patrol serves only to stop terrorists that would attack politicians. The people running the show will never allow a peaceful divorce, otherwise they lose power. The civil war (if it even happens) will be corporations, the bought and traitorous US government, bankers, internationalists, the UN, NATO, leftists, commies, liberals, and the controlled opposition Republicans against rural white America. We either integrate into the Borg of degeneracy and dysgenics or prepare to live like the Taliban, hoping one day the system falls apart and gives up.

Thanks for the video, I have always liked what you have had to share!
I am doing some ballistic testing that I would like to discuss with you.
Mostly 338 low speed bullet expansion. If you are interested I would really like to share some of my findings. Let me know if you are interested.
Once again thanks for all your work on the 101 training!
As you might tell from my name I would be interested in what you found. I'm currently shooting the .338 300gr Nosler Accubond and have also recently purchased for hand loading the 300gr Berger OTM.
338 MRAD
I have been using the Accubond 225 gr and 250 gr. I reduce the loads to 1800 fps and then shoot a deer rib bone, backed with milk cartons full of watter. Because I don't have access to ballistic gelatin, I just use milk cartons to compare different loads. (Each carton is 2.5" thick) If you sent me your email I would be happy to share some pictures of the bullets I caught.
Thanks for your interest.
This whole podcast thing is great. Thumbs up man. Thanks-
Please do. Have a video link to share??
The best advice heard so far. Just be awake, equipped and ready.
Rex,
I've been listening to you for years. You are a gentleman and a scholar. Thank you for all that you do.
Sincerely,
Ryon
I started out with a .410 shotgun,an ultra-light .38 special snubnose and a Ruger singlesix .22mag. Recently added a Ruger 5.56 AR 15 with 10 30 round mags, 1,000 rounds of ammo, and a Ruger GP 100 Match Champion .357 magnum and 250 rounds for each handgun. Open sights on all weapons. Prepared to bug out or bug in,depending on what the situation calls for.
You nailed it, Rex. You can't fight a military force like some combat hero in the movies, not alone and not even in small numbers. But at range, any skilled sniper is a lethal threat. Millions of hunters and snipers picking off commanders and cutting off supply lines would be catastrophic to an invading force. Engaging in offensive combat can be useful only in well trained groups and effective with support as well. Long range shooting is quickly becoming more popular -keep up the great work!
I've finally made it through you're entire tutorial, and I can't over state how thankful I am for your time and effort! I can't even imagine the amount of time and money you've saved me. Thank you so much Rex!
Very excellent Podcast. You hit the nail on the head. Agree with your aspect of defending your homeland! I have a Mauser k98 and milspec AR15 556 nato among others. Train weekly and "fear no evil". Great job!
I hope the sniper 101 series isn't going to end on part 101, it still seems as though, even with that many parts to this series, their's Still a Wealth of Knowledge to be Taught and Learned!!!!
This is pretty interesting. I guess my Remington 760, in 308, I just upgraded with a 1-8x scope has me covered. Fun video Rex.
My recommendation is a semi auto platform with a 1-6x scope in 5.56 or .308 the ability to engage at distance allows you to break contact against a numerically and more heavily armed force. If you engage in close combat you will most likely lack in firepower, numbers and training. A semi auto platform also allows a high volume of fire and today's platforms are plenty accurate out past 300 meters.
"A well regulated Militia" when it was penned in the 1780's referred to a man and his rifle, the combination being able to hit a target at 100 yards. Smooth bore, lead ball. Used for putting food on the table. They were All in the militia.
The Chair is against the wall, the chair is against the wall. John has a long mustache, John has a long mustache.
Excellent topic! love these new topical podcasts your doing. Keep em up! Really like your take on the American rifle man.
Top notch bolt 308, then mk18/mk12 combo, then a .22lr rifle with lpvo, any pistol, 870 in order imho
Keep coming back to this podcast at least once a month. Good stuff here.
And it is right on point today.
This is another of your excellent videos. Thanks. It reminded me of an essay I read long ago about when Admiral Yamamoto was discussing possible strategys against the USA before WWII. He responded to a suggestion of an invasion of the American mainland by saying that Japanese soldiers would be facing a rifle behind "every blade of grass". He was right then. I hope he is still right.
My ar 18" 223 wylde with primary arms 1-8, wouldn't pick anything else! 8.5 lbs with glass and a full mag and I'm covered 0-500m
This is the way
daddy likes a long barreled AR
This is the best damn video I have heard in a long long time! You sir are very realistic. There is alot to be said for the old 30-06, 270, 308 deer rifles. Thanks for another great video. This has caused me to rethink on adding to or changing my own arsenal.
I have to disagree. An AR or AK are the all around go to rifles to defend liberty and everything else. Ammo is cheaper to stock up on, mags are cheaper to stock up on, and you can "shoot and evade" with those weapons and still be effective to 300yards. Just because it's semi automatic doesn't mean you have to or will start mag dumping on enemies in a RED DAWN situation. But you at least have the option of suppression power.
I would in conjunction, throw a bolt action on my back if I was as accurate as an actual sniper to 800 yards realistically. Other than that scenario,(in my opinion) the AR, AK, or FAL and PTR91(if you could afford stocking up on .308s) are the best go to war, home defense, overall rifles.
Jason saddler well then if it comes down to that then they are not much good to themselves or others in a "Red Dawn" scenario. At best they can defend their home until they run out of ammo. But the AR/AK are affordable and that set up is very obtainable if you save up. Look at the cost of 30-06, a hundred rounds is going to run you well over a $100. So to answer the original question, yes you can use any gun to defend your home, but to defend liberty, you need an AR or AK or similar. Bolt guns aren't going to be the all around weapon that you'll need in that scenario. Just my two cents of course.
Jason saddler also where are you spending $200 for 500 rounds??? Aimsurplus has 1000rds of wolf 62gr steel case for $219. Heck I've seen brass for $300 and steel case for $185 on ammo seek/laxammo
i agree. i would say if you dont have the $600 for a budget AR or AK then go SKS
Mark the SKS is definitely a perfect example of affordable semiauto rifle for the budget minded.
Really all you need is enough to kill a small group or loan soldier and then you've got another weapon and some ammo, but ideally I'd want an intermediate to lower-end high power round like 308 with a decent rifle. And then just scavenge whatever you can for suppression or closer defense fighting.
Thank you for a fine adult, grown up video without childish bullstuff we have to watch. Great info. Thanks again.
Rex & THIS Podcast. Uniformly superb!
I think a suppressor is almost a must have. Especially if you use the 1 or 2 shots then scoot tactic. The tech exists to locate snipers.
Thanks for show.entertaining.and free speech at moment.keep up good work
10 Years ago when I started watching your videos I was the only guy in my entire group or family with a gun. Now most of my friends and family either have a gun, want one, or are in the process of getting one. I know very few people who flat out dont want a gun now.
Practice shooting in field positions ( off hand,sitting/kneeling and prone) . I think 3moa is a realistic goal. Keep notes.
From experience, well aimed fire is the most effective suppressive fire. The snap of the round is unnerving, but a round impacting next to you will make you sh!'" Your trousers!
Bolt Action rifle in .308 with a scope
AR-15 of Quality Make
Glock 19
*optional-12ga Shotty, Magnum Revolver.
10mm Glock 20 > anything "magnum revolver"... The big wheel-gun is a waste of space and weight-capacity, game over.

Nail on the head son.
I love my bolt action long range weapons. Always have always will.
5 years later this video is just as valuable. The state of the country and world is getting worse. Keep your powder dry from South Carolina.
how about a show on escape and evasion. Optimum shooting positions and such.
Agreed!!!!!!! SERE
@Jennifer Taylor Wow! Where can one learn all of this? Or read up on
Hello Rex back inn the day 🤗
It's important to be a good shot out to 200 or 500 yards. But what's more important is to be an effective hunter, to get within that range of unsuspecting enemy...1, 2, or three well aimed shots, and leave the area. Never shoot from the same place twice...
“Poop in a group”.. first I’ve heard that. Im back here years later since watching the first time. Learned so much and own so much now thanks to you. But im still learning new stuff i guess, poop in a group
Love the Bible study brother! Teaching survival must include the word! Good bless!!
Liberties are privileges granted by an authority.
FREEDOM is the ability to make decisions independent the others.
Liberty in-trusted by God.
SKS, or Mini14 would be an excellent budget weapon
I love the ar next to the toilet. Everyone needs a bathroom gun. It's amazing how the second you go to the head that's when SHTF.
Have you ever considered making a "Sniper 102"? Topics could include Camo, ghillie suits (store bought, and custom), pre-mission work, selecting an FFP, stealth movement, navigation while crawling, more calculations (multiple pressure zones, map and photo range confirmation, theodolite use), equipment that allows stealth crawling, etc.
Great, great video rex. i was holding on to every word. Especially loved the your final words. Well said.
70 million American gun owners do more for preserving freedom in America than all the politicians combined.
While I'm atypical, the only reason I need a gun is my confronter is out of my reach. But more people need to learn self defense along with firearm accuracy and tactics. It teaches a sense of self control and self esteem that adds tremendously to their firearms capability.
What has been preserved? Nothing. Can't go to church, can't gather with friends, votes don't matter, etc etc. Seems it's all talk, hot air
Mmmm. I dunno. Pointing to an outlier like Simo and saying, "see you only need a big ass, long, heavy mosin nagant and iron sights." Is like telling average everyday females, "see, you dont need a force multplier to deal with a male on the street. Just learn to fight like Rhonda Rousey". Many people arent going to come close to that guy. Or, they would have to spend such an extraordinary amount on ammo that it isnt even within their financial means, or free time schedule to do so. If you have one gun, why not get something that can cover multiple bases? Close, mid, far-ish, high ammo availability, easily suppressable, easy to find replacement parts, etc.
Totally agree. A semi auto carbine is the ultimate do it all defensive weapon.
You can hit out to 600 yards with a 16" 5.56
There's no need for anything else unless you're adding to an already susbstantial collection.
Everyone is all oh use 5.56 and 308. Me I use 45-70gov because you never know when their buffalo uses body armor.
I have a ruger ranch in 556 and a pa scope with the HUD DMR reticle and I would honestly go to war with the thing I can easily hit out to 500m standing at full size sillouhette it's a really effective and Cheap setup
I think an spr or dmr setup would be much more beneficial ….a 556 spr or a 308 dmr...send more accurate shots down range...
I've more than decided on a high end 338 Lapua for my application. Especially since all of my close friends and family have m14's ,AR 15's, are well trained with handguns, I'd rather have range and practical camouflage at my advantage. I just can't decide If I want to go with a desert tech 338 bolt action with a 26 inch barrel, or one of the new AR type platform, semi auto 338's that have 20-22 inch barrels. In the event the I were ever separated and absolutely needed to get into a firefight with even a small amount of people, having the semi auto firepower would be an advantage, possibly worth the small sacrifice in velocity from having a longer barrel bolt action.
Keep in mind of the weight of the weapon You will have to lug it in and lug it out plus ammo
$375 bolt action 30-06 or 308 and a 250$ scope is all one needs. simple and effective. The white death had 700+ kills and used an old ww2 bolt action and open sights! And in 1998 before he died some asked him how did he get so good with a rifle he said one word "practice".
Its was rifle action from before ww1, refurbished and rebarreled by finnish gun smiths.
Häyhä was good shot because he joined White Guard-militia when he was 17-years old.
During wars he used same rifle he had been practising and hunting for many years.
FInnish m39 Mosin nagants shoot 1.5 moa thats what Simo hayha used------ not a garbage mass made russian M91/30 M44 mosin that shoots 5-8 moa
You need to add in the cost of ammo. 1000 rounds of medium grade .223=$350. 1000 rounds of medium grade .308=$800.
It wasn't old when he used it, it was fresh off the factory!
FINISH m39 were never made by the fins in ww2 they used russian and other easturn european mosins and rebarreled them with much better match barrels, then they redid the stocks and a few cosmetics-- but the MOSIN ACTIONS IN THE M39s are and were not MADE BY FINLAND FACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simo Höyhäs rifle was m28-30 pystykorva, mosin, but quite heavily modified. New better barrel, better sights, shorter, etc.
They are about a MOA guns with 7.62x53r ammo.
Another very important piece of equipment... MAGAZINES!!!
I can't tell you how many guys I've come across that have these fancy semi-autos, and I'll ask them "Hey nice rifle, how many mags you got for that?" To which they all too many times say "Two." To which I answer, "Umm, yeah, nice rifle."... hehehehe
Loved this podcast. Took a few things to heart from it. Thanks T-rex. Hope we can meet some day. 701
speaking of not having a lot of coin. SKS! SKS! it's an all around gun. I've taken everything from rabbit to deer with it. can be very accurate! hard to break them
I just picked up a SWFA SS10x42 to put on top of my AR15 1/7 twist 16" barrel. It's designed as semi long range (300-500) meters.
I have read the memoirs of a few Army Ranger snipers who served in the sandbox. Sgt Cleckner and Sgt Irving. Irving is also known as "The Reaper" for the most confirmed kills in a deployment and he shot an SR-25 in .308 and his sniper team leader shot a .300 Win Mag that always jammed. Most engagements were less than 800 yards and plenty within the 300 yards mentioned here.
i respect your knowledge. i hope the gain the experience and understanding like you. thank you for sharing
Thanks for this! Really excellent and sober discussion. Speaking of books, are there any you would recommend about, say, successful Revolutionary War battle tactics or others?
Read up on Morgan’s rifleman and other militia's .not the continental army
stashing those 500 round bricks of 22 is excellent, just put 8 of those in a backpack and you have yrs worth of ammo, it can hunt small game without making enough noise to hear miles away (escape and evade), it can take people down easily with a double tap (and its easy to double tap), 10/22s are pretty cheap and very accurate and reliable (except slide release :P)
12 gauge pump action shotgun with a cylinder bore choke. Cheap, reliable, ammo is everywhere, and it will shoot any ammo type you put in it.
7mm mag savage 111 LRH would be my say hello from a nother zip code rifle for a SHTF deal.
Ohhhh yaaaa savage 111 in 7mm RM....I love mine too!
7mm we can shoot 1700 yards
Hell yeah. My 338 custom build shooting 300 grains of freedom is always ready. I'm good to 2350yrds
1. AK47 2. Bolt Action .308 3. Shotgun 12g
Hi Rex, love the topic. I hope this never happens but I feel the topic was important. I think talking more about the "sheep and distractions" would be great. People need to wake up a bit and at least open their eyes. As always, keep the great work coming.!
June 3, 2020....... we are there, right now, today! Thanks and Blessings Rex!
So what I found that works for me is that if I watch this movie or that I'm asked about this or that scenario, having read a bit of history and have been exposed to strategy I do this.
1) I draw into the history knowledge that I have accumulated.
2) I then draw upon my experiences from...SHTF scenarios I have encountered.
3) Then when considering say a Republic wide disaster where there is a SHTF or WROL(Without rule of law) scenario I feel you have to weigh the notion of attack, running vs intel gathering.
A) You absolutely shouldn't do anything without adequate intel, which can be as simple as being new and asking people what to expect in the area.
B) Running from a fight is not cowardice if your losses do nothing for the over arching stratagem of a larger resistance against say the Chinese. Out right abandonment of an area(running) is going to mean forgoing intel and defensive option for a local. However if these supposed Chinese bad actors have your names and faces, you aren't any good anyway.
C) Fighting is a valiant and heroic deed when it is a for a valiant and heroic action. Going out and just whacking a a Chinese private who is little more than cannon fodder anyway with a few million troops on their side is little more than target practice. Destroying equipment and valued infrastructure is a more key component to fighting. Then hopefully you have access to a larger group so their fewer and fewer options can be capitalized upon. However with more option for them to use you can also force a destabilized/unbalanced distribution of troops. These things have all been done in history many times over. Not the least of which were the French using any one of these three options at any one time.
4) So I consideration of a response to shtf/wrol I take into account the troops availability(partisans) and the overall training of each one.
A highly trained group of say 82nd Airborne on up the ladder of to and up to the top tier SF can be self generating in their responses to their own intel. This was addressed in any number of recent Iraq war books.
Lower trained soldiers who haven't really continued to shoot on down to minimal trained to no training civilians cannot generate anything. Any victories against hardened modern military targets would be anecdotal at best, and most likely not without high casualties.
5) Final assessment.
In the considerations I try to manage for their answer the lowest key target priorities they can handle against these notional Chinese bad actors. Harassment and interdiction is better than trying to get a pick up team to go after targets that out class them. The interdiction of these Chinese targets would be the equipment and infrastructure. The level of training is what dictates what equipment and infrastructure, or even against what value of personnel to target in a shft/wrol. That's my take.
But I like what you put out, I like your take on this whole topic here.
Good advice(except maybe the cheap scope part)! I like those Krags that keep popping up, Like to see you shooting one of them.I was amazed to find my Model 1898 carbine would shoot MOA at 100yds after I put a Redfield peep sight on it! It could put a hurtin' on any invaders, though not my first choice today!
Yes Rex! We're still here at end of podcast. We be patriot survivalists and redoubters. God Save The Republic.
Much respect my man. Strong work here.
My home defense rifles are 5.56, 7.62x51, 257 Weatherby magnum, 7mm Remington magnum, 30-06, 300 Winchester magnum, 300 Weatherby magnum, 338 Winchester magnum, 375 Ruger, 416 Ruger. First up would be the 257.
I'm penciling REX for President in 4 years!!!!!!!
Armalite AR10A2. 308 awesome penetration and AR SIMPLICITY
This video was made back in the good old days when you could buy ammo, can’t even reload because you can’t get primers,
Being in good phisical shape can help to. Its not all about just guns when it comes to survival. Not to mention a good amount of ammo and stored food will help as well.
Mini 14 is super versatile and reliable.
Love the picture you chose for the thumbnail Rex! Most people think your on the back of a ranch cart and don't realize you guys are sitting in the long bed of an F350.
Even at the time of this recording, Mosins were $250 in most places. No, a bolt action isn't a bad option, but you absolutely need to know how to run it as a combat gun. A LOT of civilian bolt actions are meant for hunting alone and therefore can't really make the transition to 'combat'. They can be hard to load, have sticky actions, limited capacity, and scopes that get in the way of rapid movements. If it is truly a SHTF scenario, then you'll need a firearm that will allow you to skirmish as well. A deer gun will give you good standoff, but escape and evade only works until it doesn't. You know, even Chris Kyle took an M4 carbine as a secondary firearm when he went out on the line. What the commentator also ignores is that those marksmen in the Russian army around Stalingrad were backed up by a million-strong army.
Ideally, you'll want larger capacity than 3-5 rounds and that you can achieve rapid follow-up shots with. Therefore, you really should have an AR-15/AR-10 or equivalent. Just because it has 20-30 rounds doesn't mean you have to dump them all at once. You can buy 5-round mags if you're that concerned about ammo consumption. With patience and TH-cam instructional videos, a very high quality rifle can be built for less than $450. Just use it as a bolt action that you don't have to manually cycle, but that you can put repeated shots down with in case things go sideways. It's not the weapon, it's how you use it.
Best thing Rex said in the entire podcast, "at some point there will be a lot of them (AR-15's) laying around on the ground!"
also another point was that during the russo-chechen war in the 90s early 2000s the chechens used bolt action .22lrs in urban settings against the russians. they were pretty effective especially when they were aiming at the neck of relatively stagnent soldiers at around 50yrds or so. held them up pretty good and nothings more terrorfying than seeing your buddy next to you drop from that and you have no clue where it came from
I would say for a Red Dawn scenario, always keep an AR15 for local compatibility, but keep an AK47 for foreign compatibility just in case you come across enemy ammo. I really would hate to have to depend on a foreign enemy weapon (other than for parts) that has a zero so off (if one at all) that can't hit a damn thing at 200 meters.
Study history first. Great advice.
Tom Olofsson as long as its from reputable historians.
There's the rub. It is tough to know which history is correct and which is politically motivated.
Great channel but i have to say, those Finish Mosins are really good rifles.
Great commentary today. I do have a question for you though, you were talking about your 'Super Sniper System' with a propeller, where are you shopping because mine didn't come with one?
Ah, yes... the Turbomatic 5000 Super Sniper System with blinking lights, radar dish and propeller on the side. Excellent rifle. Review coming soon.
does it make a pew pew sound. B/C mine is the mark II and it doesn't do that....
TiborasaurusRex....hahaha! That's fuckin hilarious...Turbo 5000 Super Sniper System w/7.5 amp forward & reverse cooling/heating fan!! On sale at Tricky Dicks Urban Warfare Survival Store for only 1,799.00$ + local, state, &federal taxes may apply...come on by! Come one - come all...U will love this gun & shooting it is a ball!! Don't forget to come to Tricky Dicks Urban Warfare Survival Store where there's a sale on something every day.
try a ambush with only bolt actions. There is a reason our enemies want the military pattern semi autos taken from the people.
Saw the rifling in the tolerances also, all your old military around sun rifles that rack River 1 1/8 twist, now they're up to 16,an old military weapons at a hundred yards of a shot more than the nickel sized group was considered a blown rifle
Scoped, lightweight, 6.5 creemoor, AR
Awesome at range or for fire support/up close if all else fails.
^6.5 is the first thing to disappear better to stick with Nato type rounds like 308 9mm 55.6 and 45acp guns get hungry and without ammo you only have a expensive club

Great video. Thanks Rex.
Every rifle design and way it loads they all have their place in the world of protecting ya family and countrymen. You need to find what ones suits you best and natural ability.
Great talk, Rex - thanks for sharing!
You speak my language. At home in Hungary we have really terrible gun laws. Basically the only easy way to have guns is hunting. I have got a Remington 700 vtr in .308 Win. with extended mag 7+1 capacity and a scope/red dot combo mounted on and an 870 12 gauge 10 round capacity. That's it. But the biggest plus for me is my private military background. Good to see someone thinking pretty close to me!
Rex - Home Run Buddy!
In upcoming episodes, you might want to OFFER some assistance on camo in greater detail. Seasonal changes will have many listeners looking like a cactus in a pine forest.
God Bless, and hope to meet up with you at "Teddy's" one of these days!
I have a 338 lm. I have tried to imagine how I would use it. I think from the top of our court house as an anti materiel rifle would suit it best. With 300 grain Hornady a tipsm
I have a 70yr old 300 Savage. Would this be appropriate ?
your best defense in a gunfight is distance ill take tall grass bushes and a 243 308 or 270 over an ar with a red dot.
Everyone should have a .308 (AR-10 or bolt-action), AR-15, and a full-size fighting pistol (like a glock 19 or M&P 2.0) at the minimum. .
If you are planning on being on the offensive you may need them. 308 bolt rifle 6x scope and a 38/357 maybe a 12/20 gauge shotgun if you are not planning on being on the front line.
Been following the channel for a good long while Rex, and greetings from Meigs county OH. I always like your content. One of these days I'll have to get out to the badlands and send some pills down range with ya man. Hey, have you ever thought about going to Utah and doing the milk jug challenge with The Long Range Shooters of Utah? They have a nice shooting channel too. Hope all is well brother !
Sounds fun! Every county in the USA should put on a jug shoot!

there was a marine sniper and his spoter desolated an entire north Korean company, and they never figured out where they firing from
I would like to recommend a 30/06 you can get different chamber insert for other rounds like the 308 , a22 you can carry 500 rounds easily that's potentially 500 deer
Are you possibly confusing Vietnam with Korea? The late Carlos Hathcock, one of the top-scoring Marine snipers in Vietnam, and his spotter, John Burke, held off an entire Vietnamese battalion for a number of days using well-aimed fire and good field-craft to decimate the enemy and survive the encounter.
