    >Expecting back pay on my service-connected disability
    >Want to get a .408 Cheytac
    Should I do it?
    >>
    Why the fuck not. Treat yourself.

    >>65617396
    If you own your house and the pension + passive income will cover your costs do whatever you want. Hell if you are living under a bridge do whatever you want.
    >>
    Last I heard, .408 was like $7.50/round. And that was about ten years ago. Git gud with a cheaper caliber first.

    Unless you're just LARPing. Then go for it.
    >>
    >>65617396
    why not .50BMG instead?
    >>
    whats the longest range you have access to?
    >>
    Honest question from a noob: why go for the less popular Cheytac cartridge (most people prefer the .375 Cheytac for its higher BC and less drop)? Furthermore, if you insist on the bigger bullet, why not go for the .416 Barrett, which stays supersonic for an extra 200 yards?
    >>
    >>65617396
    Because the M200 is unfortunately a dogshit gun and CheyTac has bad CS
    >>
    >>65617396
    Do what every other disabled vet does, get a Filipina wife and a nasty drug/booze habit and lots of Harley Davidson merch but no bike.

    The .375 is the better flatter shooting chey-tac.

    >>65617918
    >anon, are you loading solid brass .400 grain woodleigh hydros into your .416 barrett casings??
    …n…no?

    >>65617396
    I knew a guy who had family that actually owned a legit M200. Guy was a petroleum engineer who retired in his 30's. Wicked smart, worked his ass off for a ten plus change, dumped all his money into his 401k, and lived off the top. His gun collection was fucking insane, and between him and his brother, they lived in something like 100 acres of land in their own little compound with their wives.

    Even for him, shooting his M200 was eye watering because every time you pulled the trigger, you were tearing up a $20 bill. If I remember correctly, his solution was to load his own ammo except projectiles were rape your wallet expensive. So he bought a mini lathe and turned his own solid copper bullets. The more bullets he made, the cheaper it was by volume of solid copper he was ordering.

    Thats the absolute lunacy of owning a M200. Nevermind you need a range worth actually shooting it on, which, good fucking luck.

    If you want something fun but stupid, buy a .50 cal. If you want something you can actually do LRPRS, Barret is and has been eating everybody's lunch for like the past 3 years. Get a LRMRAD and a custom barrel if nothing else, its what currently holds the record for longest range shot atm.

    .408 is far more accurate.
    >>
    >>65617396
    I'd just get a nice .300WM and some black tips. Or a .338. But it's your money.

    >anon, are you loading solid brass .400 grain woodleigh hydros into your .416 barrett casings??
    I don't know if you're OP or not, but that was not my question. .408 has been surpassed by both cartridges I mentioned (accuracy/external ballistic-wise), and because they are more widely adopted, they are a bit cheaper.

    >>65619083
    Nah I’m not him
    >>
    >>65619083
    No, I’m the one advocating for .375 ct. .375 caliber bullets are much more common. Likewise, so is .416. And that was my point, some guy loading pic related safari rounds into his .416 barrett casings.
    >>
    >>65617396
    11.5 AR can literally do the same thing as that for $300

    What is this goofy ass picture?

    >>65619800
    >worst .30
    Ok for one, what the hell are you talking about? Also it's just for size comparison
    >>
    >>65617396
    If you got the range to shoot it, go for it man. It's a cool gun
    >>
    >>65617396
    get an frf2 instead

    Copper bullet hand spun on a lathe, make it extra slippery. That's how I'd do it.

    What's that screengrab from?

    >>65617396
    That company made one fancy gun that went in low numbers to a few snipers in the sandbox and have been riding on that ever since, it's a piece of shit otherwise. You could get a full MRAD deployment kit with the optic for the same money, a TRG-42 or M10, etc. and still be able to sling .33+ diameter shit just with guaranteed accuracy backed by a real company.

    I get it though if you want the quickscoping gun or have an affinity for it, it's what made me buy a TRG-42.
    >>
    Barrett MRAD in 300 PRC or even 338 lapua is a much better value, cheytac is a meme gun from the mid 2000s

    >>65621101
    He lost his lips while.... following orders

    Woodleigh’s website showing how their hydro bullets work. It’s remarkably similar to the Russian Shkval torpedo.
