>got 5/8 groups at 100 yards instead of 3/8. Gotta rebed the action>Gotta use a $200 worth of cleaning equipment>Everything you do ruins the gun>Gotta use 50 different tools to mount a scope>Stock flexes slightly if you sit on it, gotta buy a $600 stock>Gotta use a ten pound rifleMeanwhile I just go out in the woods and train in field positions, shoot squirrels from as far away as I can see them, and do nothing to my guns except wipe the bolt and barrel down with an oiled cloth and occasionally run patches through the barrel with fishing line. If I can hit an egg at 50 yards while braced against a tree, there is no fucking reason in real life to worry about accuracy beyond that. Bench rest shooting seems to seep out and poison everything and mislead new shooters about what is actually necessary to have suitable equipment and skills for any practical purpose.

>>64767518?.t owns a 4 thousand dollar AR-15 and shows up to the range cosplaying as an army man. You'll put someone's eye out sonny
>>64767518>SPORTS IS SO POINTLESS GUYS NONE OF THESE BALL SKILLS WILL HELP YOU IRL!!yeahAlso 50yd is fucking short dude. While I've argued that people who don't hunt are incredibly unrealistic about typical hunting distances, we definitely take stuff at over 50yd even in forested northern new england, not exotic western big horn hunting or anything. And while you definitely don't need sub-moa at all, 2-4 is good enough, if the best you can do is an egg size at 50yd that's more like 4-7moa, that'd actually be getting kinda mediocre.Basically you seem like kind of a raging faggot OP even if you're right that there are other kinds of raging faggots that make newguns think they have to spend way more money to get going then necessary.
>>64767543I don't even own an AR-15. I'm strictly a bolt action guy, except for my 10/22s.
>>64767550I'm in New England right now and grew up here. You do not take any kind of game at over 50 yards unless you're hunting private farmland (canned hunts). Maybe a few times in a lifetime you'll get a 70 yard shot at a whitetail.
>>64767566>unless you're hunting private farmlandIf you don't get to regularly do this when you want to try to make some more friends with neighbors I dunno. Kinda take it for granted that there a bunch of farmers around here happy to have us come out every year.
>>64767576I hunt to practice survival skills. I strictly hunt undeveloped woodland. I tag animals with laser rangefinders all year as practice in the off seasons.
>>64767550You must have massive eggs at your store
>>64767528I'm not mad that people enjoy useless sports that don't simulate any real life skills. I'm mad when their sport seems to dominate convention. When I first got into guns I didn't even own a rifle for years and only used shotguns and pistols because reading all the old geezers on TheHighRoad made me think that rifles were too high maintenance to be practical. I had that mindset for years.
>>64767628Isn't average egg size like 2-3.5" in diameter depending on if it's medium to jumbo/extra large? At 50yd that'd be 4-7 moa. If you're shooting smaller eggs though then sure.>>64767583Sure and that's fine, but plenty of people hunt because they just want a few hundred pounds of high quality and tasty protein in the freezer for the cost of a few bullets as well as hang out with buddies and help keep down a population that doesn't have so many predators. Nothing wrong with your approach just it's not the only motivation is all.
>>64767674I've never seen an egg larger than maybe 1.75" in diameter. An egg is definitely smaller than the killzone of a squirrel or the brain cavity of a deer.
>>64767674Even on private farmland you're probably talking 200 yards tops. You'd have to go west Kentucky or something to need any serious long range equipment for eastern whitetail.
>>64767528>Autistic boomer shits his adult diaper in rageMany such cases
>>64767722>Even on private farmland you're probably talking 200 yards topsMore like 160 here anyway. But that's a damn sight longer than 50 anon. I wasn't saying 1000 or something ludicrous, just a little more than 50.
