The Sniper Report post Posted June 19, 2004 Not long after buying my first 22lr, a BRNO bolt action, I was out shooting rabbits with an ex Army friend. I had spent hours learning the trajectory of this gun. When I took a rabbit out at 112 yards he said " You should have been a Sniper" It stuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

red_stag88 Report post Posted June 21, 2004 I was setting up a hotmail account and stuck for a name. Glanced out of the window and guess what was being bled....... The engine of Rover. So I looked at the book on the desk for insprination...... A Haynes guide to Rover mechanics. So I typed in Red_stag88 and that was that. T.L.E, I have done a little work machining, and am making some PCPs currently. YP, I will have lots of spare time this holiday to do some work on them!
