    Perhaps it is unwise to interject the reality of apocalyptic experience into Doomsday Scenarios?

    Yet I have been known to be one of the Bluntest Crayons in the box!

    So any semi automatic 7.62 x 51mm with a competent operator will own a 750 yard territory from a mobile or stationary hide. Thank Y'all for donating those years worth of supplies etc, while armed with your 5.56's or shotguns. Once you actually remove Societies Rule of Law, perhaps it's time to review actual after action Battlefield Reports. Without the "Rule of Law" what shall stop me from taking everything you have or might have been away with a single round at distance that Y'all can't even fathom???

    When Sheepdogs go bad, even the Wolves need to circle. Paint the Doomsday Scenario of your choice, but it's already happened and I was there! From WWII to Bosnia Y'all ain't dealt with ethnic cleansing, that's actual apocalyptic experience in My Humble Opinion. A Shotgun even coupled with a 5.56 30+ round AR is going to leave Y'all and Yours a Second Place Finishers!

    There can only be one winner!!!!!!

    Thank Y'all for the combined efforts that I shall reap upon Y'all's demise. So about that take my firearm from my cold dead fingers. At a beginners 750 yards, yup I'll be Thanking Y'all for your lifetime of Preparing without any actual apocalyptic experience. I promise to dole out your lifetimes worth hoard equitably among my kinfolk.

    I'm not a Hard Man, but I do have a Hard Bark on Me. Guess whose Kinfolk have a better chance of depleting Y'all's hoarded rations when the "Rule of Law" has expired? Arm Yourselves with firearms that can't reach me at as little as 750 yards. Oh the woods around me make those shoots impossible, how long has man been able to strike fire? How flat is the terrain surrounding You & Yours after the fire I set?

    Honest food for thought! Who is going to protect you & yours when the Sheepdogs have to defend thier own Kit & Kin?

    Spin Y'all's Doomsday Scenarios any way you like, but if you decide to speak to a heartless winner? It ain't pretty! The love of a fellow man ain't in the equation of survival of the fittest! This ain't my humble or otherwise opinion.....................
    I bet if you are thinking like that then your blessed kin folk are thinking like that, too, and with family like that you better watch the f--k out because preemptive strikes are a b--ch and your old well seasoned ass will be on the butcher block

    Un-deleted. I hope somebody in WW3 Cuba drops a nuke on all of you and yours.

    P.S. so nobody has to worry about you or any of your kin

    Soooo...umm wow. So was he talking about burning the Woods down around his house? That would be truly reckless and a wast of potential food supply. Not to mention a great way to put yourself in harms way. All that talk and you would probably be taken out by a naked guy wearing a clown mask armed with a flesh light and Mosin

    I’m disappointed

    500 yards isn’t exactly an unreasonable shot with a 5.56. And my iron sights can be set for 700 yards. Now, does that mean I’m putting rounds through someone’s 1200$ glass at 750? No. But that’s not necessary.

    area targets, small unit tactics are BASIC training for at least one service in the military.
    I’m not exactly sure what some people’s experience were in Bosnia, or how apt they are at running a multiple acre controlled burn up too a residence while camped out in their hide in a attempt to raid a stockpile. But I have encountered snipers before, in an ao where the average range of engagement was 400 yards over fairly open desert terrain. The big take away was “2 is 1, 1 is none”. That is too say, he didn’t have eyes in the back of his head, and a lone sniper was not a good match against a group of individuals with a elementary grasp of the concepts of cover, concealment, fire, maneuver and team work.

    Now. I’ll be the first to admit that no one in my little war story went to BUDS, no one was a primary marksmen Instructor. No single person had more than 8 years experience in their perspective field. so take it with a grain of salt, and for what it is: a story on the internet about a scenario the vast majority of us will never encounter in real life. But for gods sake, don’t claim an ar is a 300 yard weapon when you also claim to have qualified at 5, Know it’s effective at 7 and can cover an area at 1k.

    I've watched enough Walking Dead "Lol" To know even the best preppers , the ones who spent countless dollars and time for preparation for such a day to come is all taken away with a single .60 shot.to the head.
    At this point for me it all becomes Gods Will. Yes have what you think you'll need and prepare for the unimaginable but If your not walking with Christ you'll never see the end anyways.
    For each and their own I guess.

    Most folks that think a 5.56 is worthless at 600 yards have never been shot with one at 600 yards. I don't care how many advanced classes a man has had, there is nothing that will teach folks ,like been there done that. Why do you think politicians are so fearful of veterans? Yep, that's right been there done that and not afraid to do it again if necessary. The politicians fear is not unfounded .

    Your # 79.
    Your "vision" of reality will be short lived. I don't think I have ever seen so many extremely poor tactical assumptions in a single Post. Everybody understands it but you.
    A. You think everybody else only has .5.56 rifles.
    B. You think you can "reach out" and nobody else can. Do you "own the night" too?
    C. 750 and up? You think "your training and current level of proficiency" is superior to everyone elses. Aren't you the same guy with the can't hit a paper plate 10 out of 10 offhand with a .308 @ 200?
    D. You ignore urban structure in your 750+ field of fire Plan and think folks at that point and time are going to be standing out like tent pegs.
    E. You think your potential opponents (who you want to eliminate IOT get their supplies) have not experienced the harsh realities of combat including what I'll limit to the terms of "horror & ugliness". The entire Theater of Wars is always like a big buffet but individuals are limited to what's on their plate. I don't judge or compare what a person had on their plate, I just acknowledge and respect they had one.
    F. You think you've got the biggest and baddest resume/history/experience above all others.

    Your self absorbed bravado has once again shredded your credibility. By all means continue to thump your chest and stick with your "Plans", people read you loud and clear.

    Deleted original response - Winning an argument with a self promoting egotistical heroic legend in his own mind would be like asking Biden to calculate orbital mechanics and burnout for the re-entry of the next space flight.
    In Texas they would say, "He's all hat and no cattle". Kinda like "All argument and no substance".
