Most of these open shots are a dream for eastern hunters. Usually the opportunity here is just a second between trees. No such thing as “setting up for the shot”. Granted the distances are usually much closer. Your channel is awesome.

There can be a flourescence to blaze orange material. There are supposedly detergents to wash that out. I've only ever had one deer drop at the shot, the rest all took off running. Longest shot ever was 70-80 yards in the Sierras. When you started as a bowhunter you have to remind yourself that you can be further away than 25 yards from where they pass through.

I agree with what your saying about bore sighting rifles and then going out to shoot them. I work retail sporting goods, and I've told all the people young and old "this will get you on paper at 25 yards, it is YOUR JOB to take your ammo and shoot your gun to get it dialed in at 100, or whatever range you'll be shooting at. If you miss the deer, that's on you not US"

Exactly Correct ‼️ I live in Florida but hunt in WV every season. No matter which two of my rifles I take on any given year, we sight / check zero on a cold bore, every year. We literally take a shot, pack snow on the barrel, wait, and shoot again. With a proper bore sight, you should be done by 3 shots if you have gone over your rifle and made sure everything is, as it's supposed to be. Even with 3-4 of us shooting, we're done in less than an hour and ready for opening morning.

It is possible the barrel had heated up from quick shooting, as already mentioned by another post. When sighting in a rifle, you may want to wait a few minutes between shots. After a group of five, open the action and let the barrel cool for 15 minutes.

Went deer hunting with my son in laws and the two of them shot at a deer that was 70 yards away and they were both shooting 6.5 creedmoor and they both missed. The deer did not run away it just slowly moved away to about 150 yards so the guys both took a shot and missed again and as we were coming out of the blind I stopped both of them and asked you both missed at 70 yards how the heck did you two get my daughters pregnant but miss a deer with a flat shooting cartridge. Answer was the scopes were set out to 400 yards so they both shot over the deer four times, I had a good laugh but of course I didn’t take the shot and i believe I would have missed just like my boys did. Actually both my daughters are great shooters. Thanks Jim for another great video.

Overall I love your videos because you don't pull punches, label your opinions, and tell the viewer as much useful info as you have. Please keep up these great videos. 1. Every new/reworked rifle has a break-in period which should consist of at least 50 rounds with frequent cleanings and cool-downs. Now shoot 3 5-round groups with your proposed specific ammo to get your best group and sight for that one. If you might carry more than one type, determine the corrections needed. 2. And as to cold-bore shots - from my military experience at long ranges, @ 100 yards, there shouldn't be an effect. But as the distance increased, the 'deflection' seems to grow almost logarithmically - so test your chosen/'pet' round at several known distances and DEFINITELY write the DOPE in your notebook (or on a label pasted to your stock) so that a 2nd shot (if needed) will be on target. Ethical kills are the ONLY right ones.

Watching people hunt on KZbin, I also see a lot of misses/poor shots due to wind. That Randy Newberg video you showed they killed three muleys and everyone of them was shot in the guts. I’m assuming Randy’s was due to a pretty significant wobble zone, but the other guys were proned out and it was clearly wind drift. I watched another video one time where some guys were shooting at a mule deer at 700 yards, held nothing for wind, and they got lucky when the bullet drifted and hit the deer in the head.

Jim, the new outro was more definitive thanks. I agree with you on making sure the gun is sighted in for the ammunition being shot through it. I try to buy a variety of factory loads for each chambering to determine what works the best. This also helps to break in a gun too. Recently sent 125 rounds of 308 Win. ranging from 130 gr. to 180 gr. Bullets of different constructions from cup and core, bonded, and all copper were tested. Being a Bergara all shot well and I ended up running a kyl style target rack at 200 yards to finish they day. The Remington Core Lokt Tipped and Barnes TTSX were the best performers regardless of bull weight. I was disappointed in the Hornady Precision Hunter ELD-X and Outfitter CX loadings they produced the largest groups; I think I may have made some bad shot with those. I only shot a five round group of each ammo type. More test is required as is a change in elevation on the scope, probably due to the POI shift from the Omega 300.

Just suffered the first example in this video. Shot a buck at 25 yards broad side. He dropped and was flipped over to his back and was stuffed leg. Reached over to fist bump my daughter. He got up and long story short…2 days and as many miles later we found him. I did not want to take a second shot as I thought he was mortally wounded and I had freezer plans for him. Well.. if he gets up and runs off and spoils from that a second shot is a much better option from now on.

Reference gloves, now full disclosure I no longer hunt, but wouldn't cold weather shooting gloves help. I used winter shooting gloves when I was a cop to keep my hands warm while working traffic accidents or chasing suspect through the woods in rural areas. They keep the hands warm until your ready to shoot or more often in my case to take notes or photos. P.S. when I did hunt deer in Oklahoma no one I knew or hunted with used face camouflage or even camouflage cloths and we took deer at 100 yards or less as a rule. So I agree it is not needed for deer. Smell and noise are much bigger problems.

In Germany you actually need to undergo training to become a hunter. It's typically a nine month course (allthough there are "quick courses" of a couple of weeks). You need to study many different topics, such as wild game biologie, forest ecology, wild game deseases and hunting law. Plus shooting training. In German hunting "culture" it is imperative - after a shot - to stay on target in case you need to give off a second shot. Of course there are black sheep as well

After 35 years of hunting in north central British Columbia and talking with other hunters, the No. 1 problem I've encountered is how ignorant many hunters are about the amount of bullet drop they're dealing with over various distances. The majority had zeroed their rifle at 100 yards because that's the distance at their local range (or gravel pit). When asked about bullet drop at say 400 yards, they usually had no clue. "Oh, my 7mm Rem Mag shoots flatter than a pancake. It's flat out to at least 800 yards." When I tell them that with a 100 yard zero, at 400 yards they likely have 24 inches of drop and at 700 yards it's likely about 7 or 8 feet, they look at me like I'm crazy.

I mean within 1/8 of an inch of each other...then next 2 shots were low by 5 inches...4 inches apart....then to the right....3 inches... then shot 11 or 12... I adjusted the scope one last time...and it was dead on....I mean dead on....and it held....I was ready to send it back, that is how bad it was.....I know it held because I killed a muley in colorado 3 weeks ago with it....I wish I would have waited and bought the 7prc...but I didn't....btw this christesen arms stock feels like a toy guy..

Another main reason hunters miss is that their trigger pull has too much creep and/or is too heavy or the trigger is too light and if the hunter shoots with gloves or touches the trigger before the cross hairs are on the animal, it will cause premature shootulation. You video was informative and hopefully will help hunters prevent some misses.

It is so easy to do and everyone needs practice anyway.

I would love to see a video of the ONE rifle or top 5 rifles you would choose for hunting ANYTHING in North America from wild pigs to elk to sheep, and also considering short and long range. I have a few rifles and I have decided to get a Weatherby Vanguard first-lite edition I want to get a everything round. I have a 7mm-08, 30-30 win., and 270 win I use for hunting. I’m conflicted on old vs new cartridges I would love a 30-06 just because but 6.5 creedmore? 7 PRC? 7mm rem? Please help me decide

Can't go wrong with a classic like 30-06. As for newer calibers 6.5PRC looks to have favorable characteristics

In lue of a back rest, I prefer to wrap my left arm through the sling and pull me to the gun and vs verses. But your best defence is to practice different shooting angles regularly. Didn't you do that in the arm forces? The Prone, kneeling and standing. Try laying on one side or the other, and sitting on slants. Or try shooting down from hill. That one actually helps me when I'm back east in my 25ft pod shooting down at fox, responding to my caller under me.

Don't forget the "stupid hunter adrenalin" which works a little like a mixture of amnesia and stage fright. If you can't take a calm, level-headed shot on the sort of animal you're hunting for, you need to deal with your irrational shakes before you get there.

If you're a responsible person/hunter you confirm zero and shoot a few boxes of ammo through your rifle, unless you're seasoned and you still confirm zero!

I learned to hunt by myself. My father didn’t own guns so I had to learn on my own. But even when I’ve hunted with my brothers, anytime we got a deer, there was always a period of time afterward that I’d describe as quiet reverence. Excited to get all that meat, but respectful of the deer in its last moments. And grateful to God that He gave us this place. And I’m left feeling what I can best describe as being in tune with my surroundings, with nature. With God. Does anyone else feel this way? Or is it high fives all around?

As someone that grew up running dogs for deer using shotguns, that individual that got ran over by a small buck needs to hang it up. Wide open with no obstructions, except the first shot, he needs to step back and rethink what happens and how to react.

I'm 50YO and I've been hunting since I was 12YO. I've only had to shoot a deer with a center fire rifle more than once one time in all that time. I don't understand shooting a deer twice unless you're a terrible shot or just yank one like I did one time. Edit: I don't take risky shots and I use a caliber that works usually something in the 30 cal flavor.

FYI for any spine / neck shot. A deer that goes down by folding its legs and doesn't move around on the ground is normally dead as disco. Any deer that goes down like the one in the first vid... rears up and over, or falls over sideways with stiff legs like a boxer that has been knocked out, is very likely to reboot and run off. It's pretty easy to see when you know what to look for. Folded legs and little movement = dead Stiff legs then kicking on the ground = shot again.

Thanks for the video, I shot 2 nice bucks this year inside 100 yards but I seem to miss a lot past 200. My confidence level is down right now, so I ended up getting my first precision rifle to make me feel a little better, lol. Next is to get some good glass and break in the rifle. And then taking some milk jugs out to 250, 300 yards and practice, practice practice. Oh, also work on the trigger squeeze and get the nerves calmed down from seeing a wall hangers. It’s also a bad feeling thinking your scope might be off, taking a shot to verify after a wall hanger miss finding out it’s not the scope, it’s just me.
