  • Great Episodes

    Really enjoying all of the topics. Can you turn up the volume/gain? Some are hard to hear. Wondering if you could do a rapid fire with each Cadre Instructor when they are on: favorite setup, scope, bipod, bags, tripod, binos, range finder, etc.

From Addiction to Precision Shooting: Sam Carlson's Journey & Suppressor Industry Insights | Ep 009
Q: What was your first match like and how did you start tinkering with components and setups after Remington 700?
Sam recounts attending Pawnee Sportsman's events, observing diverse builds, upgrading to a KRG Bravo, moving from low-cost optics to more capable scopes, and realizing the value of learning through experimentation and incremental upgrades.
The Cadre Q&A Part 2: Bag Riders, Barrel Break-In & Beginner Mistakes | Ep 003
Q: Input pressures and bag riders versus light downward pressure building a bridge.
The answer centers on a blended approach: establish a solid bridge and shoulder connection while using the rear bag and fingers to fine-tune negative space, allowing the rifle to track straight back while minimizing muzzle rise.
