Met Jason for the first time yesterday at his place and found him very personable and easy to talk with...he sets you at ease right off the bat. We talked a bit about backgrounds, experiences, etc. then got into the "classroom" stuff for an hour or so. Jason has a very easy going style of teaching and is easy to understand. From there we got down to business....I had never shot prone before (I have significant shotgun experience but only bench experience with a rifle) and what he told me about alignment, trigger control, and especially follow through (definitely need more work there) made a great deal of sense. Once we got zeroed we were quickly able to move out to 200 thru 500 with him calling the wind, we were almost always on the target first shot and 1-2 more to center it. 600-700 went well also but we ran into trouble at 800, turns out my bag setup wasn't allowing a steady enough horizontal hold and we peppered both edges of the target, once we changed to one of his bags I was able to put the next 4 on/near the center of the target. I highly recommend Jason to anyone that wants to learn more about reaching out to longer distances, shooting technique, etc.. Thanks again, Jason!

It was a pleasure having you out, Chris. That 87 gr .243" did a fine job even if Chad loaded it.

Similar to my experience, very positive. Jason obviously has tremendous experience and skill but I was most impressed in how well he could transfer that knowledge.
Western, great idea, he should serve donuts!
P_102, is the name from the TI/Raytheon missile program?

No, just a shortened version of another handle. Interesting about the missile link.

Good grief...as if JG needs an ego boost I was going to buy him a new hat but there went that idea. Seriously, he does do a great job on how to verbialize items that you might not think about otherwise. Plus, the dude is ADD/OCD and that helps in the rifle game.

I may come see you next year once I upgrade from the Nikon pro staff. Or come now and I'll put one of my scopes on your rifle. You just need a one piece 20 MOA pic rail. I'll handle it from there.
