Long Range Pursuit | S2 E4 Wyoming Elk Hunt at 770 Yards

[@jaypross]

Loved the adaptability of this hunt. Always have a plan B!

[@pineappleking8015]

The plan b should not be 1-2 mile shot

[@weinerdog137]

Nice shooting. You guys ever try to get closer?

[@strattonwaller7787]

It’s called “long range pursuit” isn’t it?

[@Umakemelaff]

The longer the shot, the shorter the hunt. Takes the sport out of the hunt. Animals hang out in certain places because it’s always been safe.

[@CrottinDeChevre]

Quality channel..

[@warreng2885]

Would be interested to know what caliber and bullet type used on this hunt. Any thoughts ?

[@billcarlson852]

7mm rem mag....

28 nosler

I'll tell you what I don't clean my gun during the season after fouling the bore unless of course I role down the hill with it and put the criwn in the dirt but I hit the range and foul in again before heading back out

Why is the turret intentionally blurred out 2nd shot on the range finder demo? 1728 mark

[@jimjackson5836]

Aaron after how many rounds do you recommend cleaning the Magnum calibers? I've heard when it looses accuracy because cleaning more often is wearing out the barrel faster? Thanks

[@joshlower1]

You only clean out the powder fouling, you leave the copper in there as it makes the rifle more accurate, at some point, usually about 600 rounds, the accuracy will start to fall off, then you clean all the copper out and start over

[@jarredhall9555]

We’re shooting out to 1400 yards at targets but after 500yards I hold off for cruelty reasons. I shoot a 300 win mag and a 308 I’m just not confident the animal won’t suffer.

[@robinvovolka6197]

Kudos to you Jarred. Better safe than sorry I say!

[@grandre3464]

You can determine your ft lbs of energy on impact to determine where your range limit is. 300 win mag with 3000fps muzzle velocity on a 180-210 grain bullet will take an elk at any range out to and past 1000yds as long as the shot is accurate. Cross winds I think are the biggest factor when you get into the several hundred yd shots. Most hunters (almost all hunters) should stay within 300-400 yd max. These guys are measuring temperature, elevation, pressure, windage, aspect angle, etc...

[@johnharris-pn5vy]

Why is the scope turret blurred out ?

[@shaneslater2961]

What tripod is that I looks beefy.

[@JRMny-nl4ut]

Bull elk are so magnificently beautiful. And you guys are just out there killing them...... Thats so cool.

[@paulflores5499]

So question Aaron, we all know that metal is porous, so how "deep" into the pores of the barrel does the powder fouling as well as the copper,brass, lead penetrate over time, AND can it start to lead to metal fatigue? I sure wish you had some "classes" on DVD on armory topics. I would SURELY BUY the entire set. Thanks again for the wonderful insight of our firearms. :)

That canyon gives me the willies just on screen. I love to fly and fly personal aircraft all the time, but am afraid of heights. Go figure. I’ve even skydived without any problems and don’t mind big mountains, but things like cliffs, canyons, tall buildings, bridges, etc I do not like at all.

[@coltblankman7291]

Does anybosy know what caliber it was

[@ccrealtysk]

I'm pretty confident that was a 7MM REM MAG as I saw them use that same gun in a video that they took out a bull from 537

[@mainard6355]

Thanks for sharing guys! Nice shot and congratulations on the nice bull elk! I don’t understand why people are so negative about taking a long shot claiming it to be “unethical.” It seems to me that the party in this video was experienced and very familiar with their equipment and ballistics. They knew their own limitations and abilities and that of their firearm. It takes money and time to acquire that level of precision. How is this unethical? Thats like someone who hunts with a musket saying it’s unethical for taking a deer at 200 yards with a scoped rifle because you should stay within 100. Is it more ethical for you to kill a deer at 200 yards with your Winchester 30-30 that you bought at Walmart with a Bushnell scope? Hunting is a sport not a necessity for most anyway.. each person should know their own limitations and that of their firearms. For some this could be 770 yards, others 100 and some should not even be out with a firearm. Congratulations again guys! 0 seconds ago

[@robinvovolka6197]

@Charles Eginton Incorrect in my view. It's the much higher likelihood of having an injured animal disappear over a ridge or into brush and not being recovered by the hunter. While a slower death is perhaps less ethical to some people, it's wasting a public resource that is the unethical part. While this can happen at frankly any range, the chance of a minor miss causing this sort of wastage increases with distance. Just my thoughts.

[@colenoble8285]

I wear them in Texas. It keeps the moisture off your pants in wet grass, mine are also tick deterrent, and they keep the grass seed out of my socks when I am in my athletic shoes on a sneak.

Plz any one tell...how many riffles of different range are...?✊

[@specforged5651]

I’d be happy to answer you question if I knew what in the hell you were asking.

[@ericb.4358]

I think my 143 gr. ELC-X 6.5 PRC ammo might work on elk out to 600 yards. Still enough energy out of my Browning X-Bolt Pro (SCOPE: Bushnell LRTS 4.5 - 18 x 44 W/ illuminated G3 reticle in Talley rings and a bubble level in the top of the rear ring.) Try "Quick stiX" on your hiking poles for a light and fast shooting stick setup. Best 3 oz. you can get for making hiking poles into shooting sticks.

[@robinvovolka6197]

Hey thanks for the heads up on the Quick-StiX! I'm going to get their third leg adapter to use as a tripod as well! You saved me like 2lbs on my optics setup.

[@SpudOutdoors]

[@b.b.5048]

Guy lays down, bipods out stock rested on ground--practically a rifle range shot--then misses by a country mile. All long range guys commenting: "Nice shot" "It's not too far, it's called marksmanship." Bwahahahaha, if you miss by mile with perfect setup you're too far.

[@DocHudson420]

He literally hit both shots?

[@ericb.4358]

Imagine erecting your tents in a rainstorm. You'd have to set up the poles under the fly THEN crawl under to clip in the inner tent. Not a good design! Try Tarptent designs. Made in USA. BTW, my Nevada "mountain rifle" is a 6.5 PRC Browning X-Bolt Pro. Love that rifle. Trigger is 2 lbs. 9 oz. by my digital meter. As for barrels. my X-bolt Pro has a factory lapped stainless steel barrel. Much easier to clean with far less copper build-up. But I've also found that RUGER makes VERY accurate cold hammer forged barrels, even on the inexpensive American models.

[@HoneyBeagle]

I don’t understand the point of wearing orange at all, aren’t you supposed to identify your target?

[@rogeliofloresjr]

Definitely no enough energy for an ethical kill. I don’t even think that the bullet expand at impact, beside that I believe that No body should be shooting to an animal at that distance. 80% of the people hunting have hard time to kill a game at 500 yards... Sorry if I sound offset bu I am. In the las 3 years I been found 5 elk dead on the woods and I believe this may be one of the reasons. I respect this guy because he is an excellent shooter but most of the hunters out there they are no capable to do this.

[@Peter-od7op]

Nor shoot he be shooting this far. We really need to put stop to this over 500 yards.

[@theliberating1]

You say the bullet didn’t have enough energy for an ethical kill, yet it fell over dead a mere 10 seconds after it was hit... the 28 Nosler has over 2000lbs of energy at 800 yards. That’s the same as a .308 at 200. The conditions were optimal for that shot... You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

I sorry to upset you but this is my point of view, I don’t even know what this has to do with been Democrat which Im not. My guess is you just ran out of argument and that gives you an easy way out . I jus a guy that like the outdoors life, I really enjoy a good hunting trip with my dad, son and brother, it’s been like this since 2005 or so, sometimes we fill our tags and sometimes we don’t, that hunting. Back To the point, what I’m trying to say is if you truly think that you possess the necessary skills and equipment to pull out a shot at long range, do it, just be honest with your self and respect the wildlife.

Quit crying on the internet because you had a shitty hunting season and never kill anything worth taking a photo of. I build my own gun, ammunition, and shoot 2500-3500 rounds per year practicing my marksmanship. I have killed animals off hand at 90 yards and killed several 190+ bucks beyond 800 yards. With only one shot. The same way I shoot my bow out to lethal, data proved, ethical range with fixed broadheads. I shoot my rifle within the lethality distance of 2000fps and 1700 pounds of energy. How is that not ethical? It all comes down to data analysis and marksmanship training year round.

[@mikesmith6838]

@@TheDerick435 The fact that you are unable to get within 300 or 400 yards (a far more ethical range) just proves you suck as a hunter. As far as a shooter, one of your shots clearly shows that you just lob bullets out there and hope for the best.
