It depends on what kind.
Is it an urban situation or a farm with a lot of open space?
Even 100 yards or 100 meters is quite a distance in an urban situation.
Yeah because you have tons of experience handling firearms to know! Yeah ok! (Sarcasm)

What does āHouseā mean to you? It doesnāt depend on what kind of house, you donāt use a damn AR to defend it if there are other people in the house. . . unless itās all you have or can get to but then youāre piss poor at preparations.
Mike Adams did not mention other firearms.
I wasnāt talking about Mike Adams in my response, I was talking about your stupid ass comment. He wasnāt talking about protecting property, he was talking about where to zero a weapon and I didnāt disagree with him. I only laughed at your stupid ass comment that you think thereās a difference between āprotecting your property from Bolsheviks in close rangeā and āreal combat situationsā.

Bolsheviks are armed with ideology and molotov cocktails, whereas real combat situations involve grenades, artillery, tanks and what have you.
Really? Youāre going to double down on stupid?

I thought you were a sane guy, but itās looking more like you have a mental problem.
Yeah, IāM the one with a mental issue.
Donāt you have something antisemitic to post? Leave the gun and combat discussions to those of us that served. You flat out have no clue what the hell youāre talking about.

Seriously, I sight my rifle in @ 100 yds. Well, I donāt anymore, because thatās been done for years. LOL!
Shot a banty in the neck with it at 100 yards in 2007.
Put the cracked corn down and stepped it off.
It shoots where I aim.
I keep hearing āThings go bad with Coke.ā
Ah well, they might as well.
Must be the voices in your head.

My classic 03 with the Kahleās competition telescopic sight. You have never looked through a telescopic sight until you look through a Kahles. The clarity is beyond description. Consistent 1,000 yard hits ( 18 X 18 steel ) are effortless. On still days I use sabot rounds ( 4,500 fps ). Older now, and my vision aināt what it once was; so Iāll be fitting the Kahles with a prescription eye piece.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hereās a review: [

Nov 03, 2015 Ā· The longest distance I shot while using the Kahles 624i scope was 1440 yards . On the day I shot out to 1440 yards I used a variety of ways to correct for drop and drift: reticle only, dialing only, and then a combination of
Hard to justify $3K for a scope that Iām going to use on paper. 
Well, if itās only necessary to use it on paper. Iām not as young, as tough, or as fast as I once was; so Iām inclined to prefer the luxury of distance, & a good sandbag. Yow, didnāt see that comin.

Iām going to guess thatās a 1903 Springfield?
03 Springfield. I asked the old man, 3 years in the Burma jungle with OSS 101, if it was a good military rifle. He said, well, itāll kill a water buffalo. Do the math. He did say the best close up jungle weapon was the Thompson. It do cut
a path. This was my father - Burma jungle; he looks underweight, so probably after the malaria. No, you didnāt come home, even if you had malaria. Back then this was full battle gear. Boots, shorts, rag hat. and a Thompson. Today it looks like Star Wars. There was rarely any medivac. 3 or 4 hundred miles into the jungle. No helicopters. You were lucky if a strip was chopped out & a Piper L 4 plane ( spotter plane ) could land.
30-.06 is a round for the ages.
My cousin had a Thompson. Full auto.
He was in WW2 and had all kinda special licenses n stuff. Awesome dude!
I loved that man, and he loved me.
He had every kind of gun. Although he never could get a gun like he went to war with, and by the time I found one to get for himā¦he had died. He had a Synthetic stock versionā¦but thatās not the same as a Cosmoline-packed M1 from Georgia M-1 dudes.
We used to shoot all the guns at the family reunions. His brother lives on 6k acres.
He had this old automatic stainless pigeon-chucker heād operate for everybody to shoot at things. I wish I could have got him that M1 for him to enjoy, if only for a little while, but it was too late. 
I learned a lot from that man. He was very smart.
