    This episode of the Sub-MOA podcast touches briefly on one of our most favorite pieces of equipment: the tripod. Tyler and Rei discuss their experiences with tripods, and briefly touch on the use and effective deployment of tripods in competition shooting.

    In addition, the topic of “what makes a professional shooter?” is brought up. We have a call-iin from Max Ordinate team member Paul, in which the trio discuss their individual opinions on what it takes to be considered a professional shooter, where the competitive rifle scene is headed, and the interactions between credit card sponsored shooters vs. jersey shooters
