A M M O — The selection of ammunition is an important and, often, overlooked factor in shooting. There are many items that one should carefully examine when choosing ammo to refrain from haphazardly grabbing a random box from off of the shelf. The ammo market has notably expanded and become more varied throughout the past several decades making it all the more challenging for some to discern what has changed/been modified and what is most appropriate for their needs. It is beyond vital to ensure the type of ammo one is selecting for use when on and off the range. Always seek professional advice if one is unsure what is the most suitable ammo for them. This is not an exhaustive list but do consider some of the following when choosing the ammo you need: - Type of firearm & caliber (i.e. Glock 19 chambered in 9mm) - Range use (indoor and/or outdoor environments) - Personal defense/duty purposes/hunting - Cost - Accuracy/reliability - Ballistic performance - Bullet weights - Availability — — — 📸 @sunburn_studios_inc — — #ammoselection #piggloves #ownyouroutcome https://www.instagram.com/brasshalffull/p/CYmkq68Pbw2/?utm_medium=tumblr

F U L L F O R C E — Begin the year moving forward with full force. Surely that is often easier said than done. Regardless, the obstacles, distractions, and challenges will always be present and a part of everyday life. It is indeed how you prudently respond to them that will make a difference. Sponge everything and evaluate judiciously what is worthwhile to your overall growth and what can be cast aside. Cheers to a year ahead of strengthening the mind. — — — 📸 @sunburn_studios_inc — — #mindsetiseverything #forwardalways #ownyouroutcome https://www.instagram.com/p/CYSDbF_vYmH/?utm_medium=tumblr

P O D S — Tripods have become more commonplace for rifle shooters of all types and for good reason. Modern day tripods are extremely durable, lightweight, and can be multi-configurable. Earlier forms of the shooting tripod weren’t as reliable since modifications may have had to be made in order for it to work within rifle usage parameters. Yet, even with newfangled improvements in the current tripod space there are still things shooters should consider before purchasing such as intended use/purpose, rifle setup, budget, etcetera. Do your due diligence in your tripod search and remember buying the most expensive one out there doesn’t mean you’ll get your money’s worth. One brand we heavily recommend and have found to be an amazing addition to our tripod game are the tripods from @two_vets_tripods_inc.

C O L D — With the kicking off of the December solstice in the northern hemisphere (or winter solstice), it not only brings about the shortest day of the year but also cooler temperatures. Therefore, if one is venturing outdoors and plans to spend an extended time at the range or somewhere else where an exposure to cold temperatures is expected then definitely plan ahead. Individual risk, and extent, of hypothermia can vary depending on a person’s medical condition(s), the surrounding environmental circumstances, exhaustion, etcetera. To protect oneself from hypothermia keep some of these things in mind: - Wear warm clothing in a multi-layered fashion - In cold weather, the body tries to maintain good core temperature to protect vital organs so have good hands and feet protection as circulation slows to the extremities - Keep an eye on food and fluid intake - Seek shelter if needed to stay warm - Watch for signs indicating hypothermia may be occurring — — — #winterishere #hypothermiaprevention #ownyouroutcome https://www.instagram.com/p/CXwjd4bPXQD/?utm_medium=tumblr

P E R S E V E R E — It is often easier to veer off course than to maintain on course to achieve desired goals that have some level of difficulty attached. There are many reasons one can get sidetracked. However, these should not include the things that can be managed appropriately by the the individual. Sometimes as we face items of concern outside of one’s immediate control, we invariably want to influence or force quick change that doesn’t arise right away and that may be quite discouraging. Instead of abandoning what you have worked towards, seek to persist in the face of obstacles and drive on to leave doubt behind you. — — 📸 @outdoor_steve_ — — #mindsetiseverything #getafterit #ownyouroutcome https://www.instagram.com/brasshalffull/p/CXb_9OdPKTr/?utm_medium=tumblr

S E A T E D K N E E — There are a variety of ways to approach the seated position. Whatever chosen position one has elected to use depending on constraints (terrain, time, etc.), it is important to minimize the strain placed on your body. It’s possible for a position to detract from maintaining things like accuracy if you’re uncomfortable and building unnecessary tension, which can develop quickly into undue fatigue. Introduce clever techniques to improve upon that aids in removing topics of concern like exhaustion. As shown in the pic, simply using a knee to support the rifle can be extremely beneficial if one had to remain in that position for whatever reason. Even more so, having a pack as a means of support can also alleviate additional tiredness issues. — — — #trainsmarter #techniques #ownyouroutcome https://www.instagram.com/brasshalffull/p/CXMjzuNvzSZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

L E A R N — Don’t sell yourself short by not properly valuing your acumen, skills, and abilities. It is very keen to identify ones strengths and weaknesses to better map a meaningful growth potential. Spend time digging internally to truly evaluate where you are currently positioned against a variety of subjects. This will greatly aid in not only learning what areas you are lacking but also how best to attain and bridge that gap. - - 📸 @sunburn_studios_inc - - - #mindsetmonday #keeplearning #ownyouroutcome https://www.instagram.com/p/CW34NtihAtm/?utm_medium=tumblr

S T R I V E — Make a valiant effort to seek out challenges knowing they will be arduous to maneuver and manage. It isn’t always easy to navigate difficulties yet it is good to remember to take note and learn from the things that were rather demanding so it can be referenced for future trying tasks and goals.
