  • Is this the ULTIMATE TRADESMAN Rifle?

    01/09/2023 Duration: 01h08min

    An episode of epic magnitude! Continuing where they left off last week, Jeph and Tyler continue discussing the ultimate rifle build which Jeph has dubbed "Tradesman Rifle". From the Action, Trigger, Stock / Chassis, and Bipod, these two see eye to eye on some, and split in different directions on others! With the current configuration, this may just be a game changing rig. Can it hunt and win matches? It would be capable but still gotta be a shooter or all else is moot. For a more personal connection to the hosts, be sure to follow Tyler Hughes on Instagram @tyler_hughes_ss and Jeph Savaglio @savage422. Thank you to our show sponsor Howitzer Clothing.

  • A way and.. THE way you should engage movers.

    20/08/2023 Duration: 59min

    Covering a few topics this weekend! LOP adjustment on the fly? WTF? Good method or another gimmick to cover up bad marksmanship fundamentals? Engaging movers... from Lead Edge? Are you effing mad?! The argument against using lead edge. Why its not a method you should add to your tool box and avoid those who still teach this. Once again, just us being us, telling it how it is and holding nothing back.

  • Tomato... Tomato. Constructive Criticism

    11/08/2023 Duration: 01h14min

    THE SNIPER TARGET. Maui. Establishing habits for dialing. Videos being put out by MDT PRO's that seem more click bate. A solid episode where Jeph is in disagreement with Tyler and is trying ever so hard to change his mind. After a week of discussions, research, theorizing, and ultimately deciding on what the goals are, what is the purpose of the drill? How tight of a standard are we wanting to hold? There was quite alot of feedback regarding our target. DM's, Emails, Jephs friend, people reaching out discussing the Cranial Vault, why that should be the standard. Based off of a good theory and one man with a doctor on  his side saying "This is the way". So we took it all in. And now we present it to you. Lay it at your feet and allow you to decide. The target was modified to find a middle ground between both sides of the road. But ultimately there are certain things Tyler will not allow to be set aside as a lower priority skillset, which is the ability to accurate and precisely place a shot

  • You son of a... You call this a STORM!

Tyler and Jeph dig into the Sniper MOD Qual & Precisionier Target, execution, changes, etc. Discussing the "Cranial Vault" and why the target was designed for between the eyes and nose versus the forehead like its assumed is an immediate incapacitation shot. Training never ends and neither does working on ways to improve. Hitting the wave tops of target analysis and what your impacts mean related to your position and fundamentals. These arent new ideas, they just not heavily preached as they should be.

  • Your TRIPOD skills need more TRIPOD skills

    06/07/2023 Duration: 53min

    Tyler & Jeph discuss techniques they've seen applied to utilizing a tripod as a shooting support that make them cringe. Why fight the tripod. Why not set up in the position you want. What are these paint marks on legs and why are they not a good idea. Living life on a tripod can be fruitful but too many times we see shooters not understanding what they're doing but rather going through the motions of a half assed technique someone showed them or they've seen on social media. Remember, fundamentals will always be the foundation. But, techniques, gear, etc will change and evolve. Don't get stuck living a decade or two ago. Seek improvement every day. For a more personal connection to the hosts, be sure to follow Tyler Hughes on Instagram @tyler_hughes_ss and Jeph Savaglio @savage422.  Thank you to our show sponsor Howitzer Clothing.

  • Don't be dumb. It's only a moving target.

    25/05/2023 Duration: 43min

    This week the guys talking moving targets. Whether you're military, LE, or a hunter assuming you're good to go because you have a cheat sheet for movers is a nice lie you've been telling yourself. Simplification. Knowing how it works and what you're calculating. Understanding movements and not MPH. A real hunter, Sniper, will not need a cheat sheet because they're training has lifted them to a level of understanding and enhanced capability. The two also discuss holding from center versus holding from lead edge. One is right and simple, the other is complicated, difficult and should not be used if you're engaging a moving target with any worth. Long Formula. Short Formula. Its all here for this juicy episode that will have you learning as well as understanding WHY. For a more personal connection to the hosts, be sure to follow Tyler Hughes on Instagram @tyler_hughes_ss and Jeph Savaglio @savage422.  Thank you to our show sponsor Howitzer Clothing.

  • The Great Disconnect... MOA vs MRAD

    20/05/2023 Duration: 01h16min

    Another week! Another episode! This week Tyler & Jeph hit on Minutes of Angle versus Mil-Radian. After viewing a post and reading the comments, it was a discussion that needed to be had regarding the two Angular Units of Measure and the commons misconceptions and lack of understanding amongst most of the shooters. MRAD and Yards. MOA and Meters. Who cares! Math? What friggin math? Clearly some items need to be cleared up. Then quickly somehow Tyler ropes Jeph into discussing digital coins and investments before talking about realistic training. Been hit in the face lately? You may want to consider this as well as the training youre signing up for when it comes to ArCon aka non compliant subjects. Some courses leave you with that superman feeling and it would suck to have to Eff around and find out in the real world. For a more personal connection to the hosts, be sure to follow Tyler Hughes on Instagram @tyler_hughes_ss and Jeph Savaglio @savage422. Thank you to our show sponsor Howitzer Clothing.

The recent qualification they just went through, how Tyler performed, to include wagers or friendly patch trading bets to motivate the Marines to try harder, focus deeper.

Which leads us to "Victory loves Preparation"! The more prepared you are, the easier it is to perform or shrug off small mistakes in lieu of the bigger picture and goal. For a more personal connection to the hosts, be sure to follow Tyler Hughes on Instagram @tyler_hughes_ss and Jeph Savaglio @savage422. Thank you to our show sponsor Howitzer Clothing.
