Ghillie and range...

[Maj. Wolf]

Basicly just a question for snake, but feel free to comment.

What style ghillie suit are you making and what ranges are you planning to shoot from?

ghilles are built for hiding in close encounters so u can build up some range hiding and crwling away without being spotted.

Um, that's not technically true mate.

A ghillie suit is merely an article of personal camouflage. It's uses will become varied and ever changing depending on the design and the sniper its used by.
Because of this each sniper who has made his/her own ghillie will, with practice and customizing, become comfortable and adapted to use his personal suit in its best possible way and thus will probably not want anyone else using it as this may change things that are almost essential to that particular suit.
So basically a trained sniper with his/her personal suit that they made will be the best in a squad/team at hiding, moving and shooting whilst remaining at least partially concealed.
Granted, movement is THE hardest part of being a sniper, that's why the most time is taken to practice this essential part, but that is not the only use, as just picking a particular spot to hide in will depend on what the suit looks like and has on it.

That's a brief overview from my guide. i'm still writing my guide so the rest will be in that.

hey i have now finished my woodland crawl slyled ghillie far better than the last attempt made with real netting this time, soooo good.
i am planning to shoot at a range of around 50 to 60 meters i have been able to reach the 100 meter mark, but have found the l96 to be more accurate around this sort of range.

bring the next game on!!!
