[@Darkpool79]

This SPR content is 🔥🔥🔥 Keep it coming 🗿👍

[@jimmybrodriguez]

🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@enrico8730]

Straight on towards the toolbox!

[@Peachwhaler26]

I’ve been hitting all this SPR videos hard, got a 18” barrel and parts in the mail to build mine! Very excited

[@danielsullivan7740]

I love the info on your videos man. Seriously thank you. Keep them coming

[@klajoye481]

These videos are so sick. Thanks so much to the brains behind it and to y’all for getting it out there! - love this content, my mans!

[@Upper_Room_Studios]

Love the SPR content! :D

[@jimmybrodriguez]

🙌🏻plenty more coming

[@rimfirecommando]

This is some good stuff. There's a lot to learn!

[@IntellectualTerritory]

This is very good information, and I enjoyed this very much. I would like to see this from zero to hero and walk through the methods in real time. That content would be so awesome to watch!

[@jimmybrodriguez]

There’s more to both methods which is why I didn’t show it, didn’t want to giveaway the farm

[@sheepdog457]

I prefer the previous set angle. Also, the audio mix is a little different in this one-kind of dull and bassy. Not sure if the set change is related. Otherwise, I love all the content. Thanks for the perspective you’re sharing with our community. I’m learning a lot-especially how much I have left to learn.

[@jimmybrodriguez]

We never know how much we don’t know lol

[@stephenbramel9395]

Super good video I found this extremely helpful!

[@gabrielhouston5660]

This is awesome information!

[@__MAT__]

Excellent content!

[@562handsomemike]

Thank you

[@KevinWood44]

Awesome video

[@hopewilliams6705]

Awesome explanation!

[@jimmybrodriguez]

🤘🏼

[@3G4Runner_N_Gunner]

I know this is an older video but I noticed on your ipsc you have scope height measured as 1.54". That is the height of the mount over the rail. What you want for collecting accurate dope is the distance from centerline of bore to centerline of optic, which will be slightly higher than 1.54" causing your dope errors to be more exagerated the farther out you go.

[@koengCO]

Another great vid / content. 👍

[@jimmybrodriguez]

🙌🏻

[@billbee235]

So heres what I do. My 18” SPR rifle is rocking a 1-8x PA PLX Griffin Mil. I have my holds confirmed from 0 to 600 to a waterline. I shoot a bunch of PRS so I’m comfortable with dope and reticle holds. The struggle is usually with distance but I think that’s because in PRS events it’s always given.

[@rich1958]

What barrel and/or upper did you go with? How do you like it?

[@billbee235]

@@rich1958 I have an 18-inch Proof Research stainless barrel in an Aero upper. It hammers, during load development the largest group was 1 MOA. I’m running 23.8gr of IMR 4064 with 77gr SMK in Lapua brass for 2,650 fps. That said, I’m pretty happy with it

[@PoliticallyInsensitive]

Bear in mind that MBPR was developed by hunters decades ago so they could just hold center on whatever animal they were aiming at. It was realistically intended for shots out to 300ish yards.

[@davidj5183]

Welcome back

[@jimmybrodriguez]

Appreciate it

[@rich1958]

So jealous of the range you are shooting at. Nothing anywhere near me passed 100 yards.

[@meidamx]

Kinda like the 12" drill. Nice.

[@larrys009]

Nice work...as usual!! Sounds is kinda muddy..keep up the good work man!!

[@MrShortanswer]

I personally liked the straight way

[@jimmybrodriguez]

You’re not the only one

[@swiftaudi]

Learn your holds. In the field if time isn’t an option holds are going to be faster.

[@crispy_338]

Exactly. Under time pressure dialing is usually not an option

[@ninjasquirrels]

Holding > Dialing Edit: Keep good notes, do the things.

[@jimmybrodriguez]

Knowing how to do both under stress is important, but yes holding will always be faster.

[@ninjasquirrels]

@@jimmybrodriguez I just got a brand new stainless rifle length 18” upper from a friend, ordered a Mk5 with some my refund… This entire series is gold my friend, great tips & tricks from people whose been there and done that. My thought was to try PRS/NRL with a 6 ARC barrel, do you think I could do it with the 556/223?

[@jimmybrodriguez]

I’m doing it with my 556. My goal was not to get caught up in the gear race and focus on developing the skill. 6 arc will provide some benefits especially in wind but it’s dependent on your long term goal

[@harryc2654]

Can we get a video of your desk setup in the background? Im digging it

[@jimmybrodriguez]

I think I can make that happen

[@emtothedee]

For your maximum point blank range zero are you slipping the turrets to your regular zero and then dialing up one mil, or is dialing up one mil your slipped zero?

[@nickdevault5717]

May have missed it, but what optic / reticle is that through most of the video?

[@hclarke116]

Hi Jimmy, what scope are you using there?

[@pescad0]

That ipsc whiteboard has more effort into it than any of my school projects had lol

[@halledwardb]

Any shoots like this in the NE Dallas TX or OK area?

[@allthecommonsense]

What did you use to record the visuals from your optic? Didn't see anything in the description.

[@DFOOSKING]

Your "Gun Number" is known as Speed Drop Factor....

[@rdsii64]

I dial for elevation and hold for wind.

[@austinknowles7331]

How do they chainsaw rifles perform ?

[@jeremygendreau5576]

Angles great. Minus the door. Now come back to WA!

[@jimmybrodriguez]

Soon

[@kajhelin6822]

Target size in mm/ mils is king for milling. A 500 mm target 1 mil wide is 500 meters away. If it´s half that size it´s 1000 meters away. If it´s 2 mils it´s 250 meters away. 500mm/5 mils is 100m away. This is the best flash milling formula. In the past decade US snipers have finally started to use meters in order to simplify the milling formulas. So I assume that in the next 10-15 years you will move to this way.

[@Alexandersyao]

You gun number is also known as Speed Drop factor

[@shhhboss3139]

okay but whats my elevation dial with my sro tho

[@jimmybrodriguez]

2 5/16 full turns

[@MN-ub7gl]

Tool box straight on

[@cfnaround1585]

Not enough information out there about reticles from ridgeline

[@FOX814]

No avg Joe's Challenge for feb??

[@jimmybrodriguez]

With the move I haven’t had time to get out with the guys to film. More coming soon

[@hopewilliams6705]

Also you didn't mention that you zero at 100 yards I believe

[@jimmybrodriguez]

Yup that’s correct

[@charlesludwig9173]

Hold for wind/dial for elevation.

[@somethinganything4864]

The audio sounds a bit weird in the new location. I'm guessing it's because you're talking into the corner of the room

[@competitiveshooter9288]

I welcome the innovation but I preferred the old setup. Too much nothingness on the left of the frame now and it’s distracting.

[@jimmybrodriguez]

I agree, I’d like to put a neon sign there but I’ll probably switch back

[@davidhenderson1738]

I personally don’t give a shit about your setup! Just keep it up! Love the content, I learn a lot thanks man

[@charlesmckinley29]

Thank you
