What do you do with a SCBA tank with a broken valve and 2250psi trapped inside??


Yup, I had the same idea.


We set it up and it ended up being 511 yards. I put 2 rounds on my steel target and then went for the tank. The only thing I had to film it with was my phone, so the quality is pretty bad......sorry.

We also shot some steel and my buddy showed me up on my rifle......the first time he shot it.



He shot a 3 round group @ 1.920" and destroyed a 12oz pop can the first try.



I went for head shots on my target and had an awesome 3 shot group but decided to go for 5. I ended up pulling the last 2 for an overall 3.955" and hit my pop can on the second shot. We were shooting my custom Savage 110 in 260 Remington....suppressed.

After that we walked his AR onto the target and had some fun shooting our pistols. It was a pretty good afternoon.

Chief Brody would be proud. Your vehicle's name wasn't Orca was it? ;)

What suppressor are you running? I just ordered a YHM for my AR's, but want to get something better more precise for my 6.5 Creedmoor.

I am using a YHM QD 7.62 Ti Phantom. I use it on my AR for predator hunting and my 260 for hunting and target shooting. I am very happy with it's performance so far.
