I collect US Military Long Arms and currently have about 100 pieces of history in my care. They span from Flintlocks of the French & Indian War and Revolutionary War all the way to what is currently in service. They include the appropriate slings and bayonets with scabbards for most. Several are sniper rifles or tribute sniper rifles, following are photos of those arms and/or scopes that I would like to share. (This is only my second thread started on Culver’s, the other was a Remington Model 10-A in the Military Shotguns Forum)

I'd love to see representative targets showing the potential of each rifle.
I've actually never fired any of them to date. I do have some 30-06 brass but don't even own any .308/7.62 brass any more. For 25 years I actively competed in rifle metallic silhouette with air gun, smallbore and highpower. My first competition center fire rifle was a .308 Krico bolt action that I eventually barreled to a .260 and necked all my Lake City brass down to 6.5mm from .30 cal and all that brass went with the rifle when I sold it. The scope I used was a Leupold 6.5-20 with a Premier dot and was bumped to 18-40 that I shot on about 30x. Silhouette competition is shot off hand and the high power rifle targets are at 200, 300, 365, and 500 meters.
Cowboy Action Shooting has replaced my silhouette competition over the last 15 years, and all my long range shooting is now in side matches with iron sights on single shot rifles or lever guns (mostly 45-70), usually those range from 100 to 300 yards where I shoot. I do have 30-06 dies and still have the .308/.7.62 dies someplace. My interests now besides CAS competition is history, living history, reenacting, and arms collecting. I've got about 17 different military uniforms I can wear that range from 1860 - 1917. Here is link to where I have posted photos of some of them: http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/topic,58655.0.html

I've actually never fired any of them to date. I do have some 30-06 brass but don't even own any .308/7.62 brass any more. For 25 years I actively competed in rifle metallic silhouette with air gun, smallbore and highpower. My first competition center fire rifle was a .308 Krico bolt action that I eventually barreled to a .260 and necked all my Lake City brass down to 6.5mm from .30 cal and all that brass went with the rifle when I sold it. The scope I used was a Leupold 6.5-20 with a Premier dot and was bumped to 18-40 that I shot on about 30x. Silhouette competition is shot off hand and the high power rifle targets are at 200, 300, 365, and 500 meters.
Cowboy Action Shooting has replaced my silhouette competition over the last 15 years, and all my long range shooting is now in side matches with iron sights on single shot rifles or lever guns (mostly 45-70), usually those range from 100 to 300 yards where I shoot. I do have 30-06 dies and still have the .308/.7.62 dies someplace. My interests now besides CAS competition is history, living history, reenacting, and arms collecting. I've got about 17 different military uniforms I can wear that range from 1860 - 1917. Here is link to where I have posted photos of some of them: http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/topic,58655.0.html
Speaking of reenacting, I visited a Confederate encampment at Gettysburg and their marksman had an Enfield sniper rifle. He let me hold it and when I quickly raised it to my shoulder, as if for a snap shot, it was like the thing had eyes. it was right on target ( a small bolder about 75 yds away.)

I have not shot any of them but have been aquiring the components to reload for most of them and plan to make several trips to the range next year just to see how they all do. The muzzle loader will not be shot and I have to have it repaired as the stock is broken at the wrist.
