[@QualitySportsman]

Great shooting with you Ray, congrats on the win and thanks for the shout out!

[@XRING]

Anytime Mike and great job out there. 👍🏼

[@tl7593]

Great video. Interesting and informative.

[@thebryguy96]

You are a very skilled and passionate shooter and your insights and knowledge sharing are game changers for shooters willing to listen. Thank you.

[@XRING]

Thank you bryguy and I appreciate you watching the channel. 👍🏼

[@rayjohnson4662]

This is great! I always shoot with sunglasses, but now I'm looking forward to ditching them and trying clears. Crazy the little things I keep learning, not to mention the equipment that is super tempting to buy. Thanks Ray for the knowledge, and great shooting!

[@XRING]

Thanks Ray, It is worth giving it a try when you are shooting a stage. Have a great week and thanks for watching.

[@seanoneil277]

Congratulations, Ray. 9 months laying quiet, then taking the win!

[@XRING]

Thanks Sean! Needed to clear the brain for a little while. 👍🏼

[@seanoneil277]

@@XRING It worked, glad for you!

[@Pompomgrenade]

😮 Thank you for sharing so much knowledge on the tools of the trade... And reminding me of all of the homemade makeshift tooling on which I must rely 👍🏾 I think you really highlighted methods, more than products.. It's appreciated

[@kubikariYOU]

Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience!

[@cityofbricks]

Your channel is one of the best. Super enjoyable 😊 This video was very helpful!

[@XRING]

Thanks CityofBricks and thanks for watching the channel.

6:01 I run PMag Gen M3 exclusively. The PMag served me well during the GWOT, and I continue to trust them know as I protect my family.

[@Fair-to-Middling_Marksman]

Solid. Always good to see how the pros plan stages.

[@toddschmidt7980]

Great shooting appreciate the details and tips great guy thanks

[@XRING]

Thank you Todd and thanks for watching.

Thanks Ray Great shooting and Congratulations on the win

[@XRING]

Thanks John.

[@gavinmyburgh604]

🥇🏆👍💯💯💯🎯, congrats Ray and Thanks for all the Info and gear we can use 👍😎

[@sjohnson1776]

Congratulations on finishing first Ray! Well done! Thanks for the gear rundown!

[@shaneclose792]

I’ve been using the Otto NoizeBarrier Range SA muffs for the last year or so. Very happy with the performance, but the bulk of them has proven to be a challenge several occasions. Might try out a pair of those small Otto ear plug that you have

[@glockparaastra]

Nice toys! Well done on the win!

[@XRING]

Thanks Glockparaastra!

[@MrTimLau]

Note to self: paint a “shoot here” spot on the post on stage 2! Great shooting Ray! Thanks for the review

[@XRING]

Anytime Tim! If there were a spot we would have definitely used it. 👍🏼

[@jeffguy3868]

Congratulations on the win and great video

[@hesa3656]

Thank You Sir! This was awesome information! 👍🇺🇲

[@MDoodie11B1P]

Great video as always. I know you covered a lot of gear and your thoughts when you were shooting. You mentioned the weight of the bag and how it made your hold solid. I found that eye opening.

[@Triggertarzan]

No old man class. Hahahaha me and Mike sweated our asses off at the Clinton house PRS even burned my arm on the tonneau cover on the truck stage.

[@XRING]

No old man class at this one. That where I belong for sure Waylon!

[@Triggertarzan]

I know first off. If there is somebody older and better to learn everything from them. Reason they are older is because they are better. So you better believe I’m calling you if I need a teammate old man. Hahaha

[@PrecisionRifleNetwork]

Comment for the algorithm. 🤙

[@XRING]

Thanks Joel!

[@taylormartin4346]

This is definitely not a poor man's game

[@XRING]

I am not sure that any of the shooting sports are cheap. Especially, with the prices of things these days.

[@MrShortanswer]

Like any shooting sport, you can scale the cost to your budget

[@glenoh88]

@@MrShortansweryea but just the cost of ammo alone to practice to be reasonably competitive is high. It’s definitely not as cheap as keeping sharp enough to hunt public land.

[@MikeGuadango]

Hi Ray. Great video. If you buy a small spuhr picatinny section (you might need a spacer as well) you can mount the send it level to the left side of the spuhr mount

[@XRING]

Thank you Mike and thanks for watching. 👍🏼

[@timjohnson8390]

Right on! Congrats brother

[@williamgittins4770]

Congratulations on your win. Will the Badmf’s ever be available again for purchase?

[@jeffreypelletier7247]

I noticed a lil smirk when you mention you were a little rusty 😊 rub it in on them young bucks.. lol thanks for the content appreciate the info!!

[@weaponofchoice8942]

Great video thanks for sharing

[@Pompomgrenade]

😂 When the stage starts, Ray has to do 100 jumping jacks at every shot to be taken... Rules of the game😊, just for Ray 😔 The bastard... That'll teach him 🕶️

[@seanwhite304]

I shoot a Match every month at Peacemaker National. PNTC is my home range . At Starlite ir back at the house behind starlite you can get out to 500Y . Frontier you can get out 600Y+. I used 1-10× for 2Gun matches for a good while . I switched to 3x MAGNIFIER paired with EXPS2-2. I'm actually way faster with this setup on reduced C Zone targets at distance. I dont know if its actual skill or I'm just better than I think I am but I smoke dudes with that OPTICS setup . I still have my space cadet moments when I'm not focusing. I was able to hit Reduced C zone at 480Y from inside driver seat of Vehicle using Steerling wheel as a rest . Then on same stage I went to war with 440Y 12" steel plate that I got to shoot from tank Trap lol . Past 10 or so matches I've been using 3x MAGNIFIER setup . I do need to start shooting 1-10× again to figure out why I'm slower when shooting at distance.

[@Pompomgrenade]

Yo Ray, no bull... I was zeroed at 200 There are five mills in my radical 🙈 standard stuff👍🏾 300, 400, 450, and 500 😂 Have been permanent holdovers for... What worked back in 2010 and I'm pretty sure physics make it still all possible😊 Same 24-in one in nine twist spitting 55 grain at 2950.. That Korean off the shelf PMC🎉 poor boy go getters

[@99zebster]

Nice! Informative as always. Question the 77gr was it black hills or black arc?

[@XRING]

Thanks! Black Hills, as this was a high rounds count match and I didn’t have enough Black Arc to use it. 👍🏼

[@PaulRenne]

Nice job Ray! You shot the Black Arc 77gr for this match didn't you? Just got mine today and looking forward to see how it does for me.

[@XRING]

Hey Paul. I actually did not shoot the Black Arc for that match. I didn’t have enough to make the round count. I actually get my order in today.

[@PaulRenne]

I'm glad I'm not the only one that has that issue with the GrayOps plate!

[@bluenwhitecub]

Just got mine today! Can't wait to get out there this weekend and see how I do

[@XRING]

Awesome ! Let me know what your experience is with the ammo. 👍🏼

[@erikredding1236]

After I finished making the payment on all the gear I’d just have to be a spectator at these competitions

[@ckkevin9620]

Great video Ray! Not sure if I missed it but what barrel length are you using? I currently use 14.5" in Tactical Games and considering 16" next year given slightly better ballistics. Don't want to go too long given weight and maneuverability in workouts. My holds are currently 300 1 mil, 400 2 mil, 500 3.5 mil, 600 5 mils. That's with a mv of 2579 using PMC X-TAC Match ammo. I'm no expert but I totally agree trying to match ammo to mils to make things so much easier.

[@shibaspeed]

20”

[@Pompomgrenade]

😮 select and enjoy forced uncomfortable position😅 Because everything is too easy for Ray❤

[@TallTimbersUSA]

LOL, what irony, I literally have an Ultradyne brake in my cart right now.

[@KenHenning-e6c]

What type of Range Finding Binoculars were you using. Thank you Ken

[@XRING]

The green ones on the video are the new Vectronix Vector-x Binos. They aren’t out just yet. I did a very comprehensive review on them last week

[@tjaselin]

so on the eye glasses part, what if you wear glasses and use transitions? do you think that little tint is going to affect us

[@XRING]

I wouldn’t think so. My vision is also a little different than most so maybe I am a little superstitious at this point.

[@Mrpocketprospecting]

shit their are us out there that love match footage, slap the camera on the scope😁

[@danielgodismyjudge]

😊

[@e60nate56]

Thoughts on 2 stage dead blow competition buffer?

[@XRING]

I have no experience with those but they do look very similar to the JP silent capture spring which I think are great additions to any AR. 👍🏼

[@xforce708]

Why do you not fill the D60? Is it a function issue or just that you won’t need that much in a match?

[@XRING]

I think it’s more of a me thing. When ever I have ever noticed any issues with magazines of any types it is usually when a rifle is dirty and there is a lot of spring pressure from a full magazine. I don’t download my 30’s or anything like that but I don’t think that I would need to have a D-60 all the way up to the full mark. That’s all.

[@Ouwkackemann]

Could you tell me please about the "earpros", I can´t find them. 😀

[@XRING]

Otto Engineering. Noizebarriers.

[@hopewilliams6705]

Ultradyne Apollo max

D O P E Yes $tuff... I'm feeling hood rich 🙈now baby🏁 😵‍💫 WATCH ME🧩

[@clarson2916]

Do you hate match footage, or do you hate shooting and editing match footage?? :)

[@XRING]

Editing is easy. Most people don’t like watching the videos. The views reflect that. 👍🏼

[@williamsweet7511]

Matches are so much fun. I love shooting matches of all types, USPSA, PRS, F-class, 22lr, you name it and I'll go shoot it. The people at these matches are extremely nice, helpful, will share gear and knowledge. Go shoot some matches, local matches is where the fun happens. It's only stressful if you make it stressful. Go with the intention of having fun and meeting like minded people. Then if you like it, you'll want to do more, which I bet you will. I'll show up at matches I've never done before, ask questions and the helpful people will gravitate to me. Before you know it you'll start to figure out the game and be competing for top places, if that's your goal. I look forward to matches way more than training or testing days at the range. Now I make my non-match range days targeted towards a specific "thing" I'm working on. Either load development, holster draws, PRS stations, or just better trigger pulls. I've found my shooting has a purpose now, I want to improve at my competitions so I work on the smaller and smaller details of shooting sports. Thanks for the Video, hope my comment wasn't too long. I just wish more people would go shoot matches. Your gun handling skills will improve beyond your wildest imagination.
