500 yards BlackJack Challenge #5

[@nt_wicked_bunch2717]

Good to see Jason’s face, can’t wait to watch the Borden interview too! Two in one day.

[@ErikCortina]

Get to it! :)

[@2whl4re]

Didn't you mean 'good to see Jason's beard'?

[@skinnypedaldown5044]

Can't express how much I enjoy this series. Thanks to all the shooters and Eric. Its that E C. 😂

[@jaymiller393]

Jim Borden and this in the same day?! Hell yeah!

[@philipsteele5704]

Wow Erik, I love that! Bobby put on an amazing show!! Keep them coming.

[@ErikCortina]

He sure did!

[@daveenriquez7790]

Charity TBD? Thinking Youth Shooting Sports Aliance or something similar to support our younger generation involved in shooting sports.

[@soderlind81]

Bobby´s 5x hits on that lill 2" target was magic!

[@I5ZQ8]

No way Bobby Pulido is a long range shooter??! I knew he was a hunter but that's awesome!!

[@ErikCortina]

He sure is!

[@runningongas]

How’d you meet him? He’s got some bangers

[@zdenkoplese665]

Outstanding as usual. Good to see Jason cheers

[@johnisabeth2504]

Go lefty. Love it when blowers fall over. We can all do with a humbling experience sometimes.

[@MrEMann]

That singer can shoot! Very impressive!

[@daveenriquez7790]

Man, all the shooters were great and efficient, but Bobby Rocked it!

[@ErikCortina]

He made that rifle sing! 😉

[@kylesans9738]

Wish I lived closer. That would be fun. I have learn alot from Eric's videos from shooting to reloading. Keep up the great content.

glad to see Jason back

Thanks so much

[@juanherrera2672]

Wow this is crazy. Never thought I would see Boby Pulido on here. Great singer and shooter by the looks of it.

[@ErikCortina]

Yeah, he is good at both!

Thank you. 🙏🏼

[@jeffreypelletier7247]

We’re starting our own modified version of blackjack at my local sportsman’s club up here in Maine in the spring but we can only shoot to 300 so we made the targets a little smaller I’ll try sending you a video when we get started 😊

Country boy is a shooter. Hmmm Jason is back for a visit, I always wondered what happened to him working for you. Clay needs to work on some top notch excuses, a guy needs to be prepared for all circumstances. Where as Eric's excuse game is dialed. Good shooting boys!

[@johnbrown2559]

I would love to know you're powder and charge as you said that they were slow,but damm their accurate. Love the show.

[@Spin-Drift-Ballistics]

Great challenge video. I think if you could move your target stand out from the shadow of that tree into the open sunlight, it would make for a more consistent target for all to shoot. Just sayin...

[@markoeberhardt3132]

Wow Bobby shot insane…. He even had a shot I thought he slapped the trigger but it was still a laser beam!!!!!

[@BobbyPulidoTV]

Thank you! I shot a lot of ar15 that would double fire if I held the trigger down and developed that bad habit. So as soon as the shot breaks, I let up. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@markoeberhardt3132]

@@BobbyPulidoTV I never shot that far or a rifle that precise… it motivates me to get something nice and go out to practice

[@Tomthormeyer]

All right, Eric, time to join the cool kids we want to see you do it with a single shot!!!

😁

[@ericmccowen5599]

Always fun to watch!

[@crush3095]

haha I put a recoil pad on the Oryx too, it's such a firm chassis that it can HURT haha I'm shooting 300PRC out of it, great budget chassis, I hear the short action has a polymer trigger guard, but my long action came with aluminum

[@jacksonanderson540]

You should do a video on how the build is for your blackjack target

[@bob_mosavo]

Thanks, Erik 👍

[@ErikCortina]

You're welcome!

[@centralarkprs]

As a person who shoots rimfire but not centerfire, I think it’d be very interesting to get some new to centerfire shooters (or never shot centerfire) and do this with them. I’d be interested in trying it for sure, but like most new to centerfire shooters…some of us don’t have rifles 😢.

[@SamuelBerryhill]

Great video man. Glad to see Jason back on here. Keep up the good work man God bless

[@ErikCortina]

Appreciate it!

[@nailswood167]

These videos are fantastic. Along with the target indicator, would you be able to put a shot count on screen? I can’t count very well…

[@ErikCortina]

😂 I’ll try.

[@chrismarkley1818]

Eric… from your video the other day and dealing with glare, why no sun shade on your Scope?

[@ErikCortina]

It was the same day. 😂 I have sunshades on my other rifles.

[@brauliodiniz7753]

What is that white thing on the scope?

[@ShelbyCase-eu7vu]

Is your bolt closing hard or am I just seeing stuff? I am sure it’s intentional, just curious what you are doing to make it close hard.

[@ErikCortina]

The pre-fit barrel with barrel nut was fitted slightly too tight. I need to loosen it. Ammo was loaded for the other rifle.

[@kurtissmith4555]

We need the guy from Texas plinking to come try

[@the8-1-57]

Looks like somewhat of a challenge....any chance you Texans will allow a sharpshooter "wanna b" from Illinois try his luck? Planning a blackbuck hunt this fall anyway,... I'll be in the neighborhood 👍😁👍

[@marknaglreiter9330]

Eric, it's difficult for us to see the last 2 targets.

Eric this just gets better Jason on the grid , Jim Borden believe the target . This looks tuffer than it looks today . The last Blackjack you showed us the picture threw your scope and it looked terrible from my view. Didn’t think that was a good plug for Kales scopes.

[@ErikCortina]

lol, it was not the scope, it was the glare picked up by the camera on the scope.

LOL I'm not the guy but I'm sure there is someone with a rimfire saying, I can clear that!

[@ShooterB1]

@@88PeteZa it was a joke, some guy will say he can do it.

[@dr.p8356]

Does zero magnification count as open sights?

[@ErikCortina]

Is it a sight that is open? 😁

[@michaeldoe4805]

My understanding is 'open' or sometimes referred to 'iron' sights means no optics, no reddots etc. Real discussion is some older world war 1 era stuff with peephole rear and matching front sight inserts will have glass lenses embedded in them, technically they are 'open', but have optical lenses... Imagine a scope stretched out between front and rear sights... Let's hope nobody shows up with one😮

[@dr.p8356]

I was just figuring custom options designed specifically for the course of fire. Iron sub tensions and such

[@VitalArms]

If it comes to donating the money. Id recommend FPC- Firearms Policy Coalition or CRPA- California Rifle and Pistol Association. These guys are responsible for actually winning court cases against the state government unlike NRA. You might be thinking.. why donate to a california based organization? The answer is because gun control starts here and then it moves to your “free state”, if we can fight it and defeat it here you guys never have to deal with it. I call that a win win.

5 in a row of a 2" target at 500 yards, now thats shooting, it would be good Erik to try to have a camera on the spotter scope, like yours, just to see by how much the shooters are missing by and what they are doing to hold over etc. Well done now 105 is the best score to date, to beat. Keep up the great work Erik always looking forward to blackjack, i hope the trophy is brass projectile holding a laminated blackjack card with brass colored surround around the card. 🦘🦘👌👌✌✌👍👍
