Shooting A Long Range Match In A Thunder Storm!

[@sraldiris]

congrats on the new truck. They're great vehicles.

[@Mrmacinator]

Piet, shooting long distance is the most frustrating fun you can have. Well done!

[@millbean13]

Very cool to see gun culture in another country. Guns are normal part of life in US obviously but i don’t often come across other countries who allow them. Pretty cool to see.

[@Allen338LM]

I love all the long range matches I can watch and or just long range shooting is fun to watch and especially do in general

[@JohnnySyn]

Great video! I'm just starting to get into precision shooting and I'm getting a lot of information and inspiration from your videos. I bought a Tikka T3x and a Vortex Venom scope and haven't taken a single shot yet. LOL.

[@thomasf.maloney8868]

Fantastic video, showing how lang range match should be shot. Both you guys worked together on your wind calls. Great effort!

[@ryanball478]

There I was watching this video while ordering a monster muzzle break for my first ever full build rifle and heard you say please make sure you support your creators. Well thanks for providing us with your products and content. I watch most of the videos and things you put out for us to enjoy.

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Appreciate that so much!

[@surion42]

Just finished up my 300 win mag on the Oryx chassis I absolutely love it, glad I found your channel

[@bryanmulcahy8957]

Top notch. Really enjoyed this video, great job from both of you. Tough times but worked through it and came out with great results.

[@jeremydsmith24]

Great Work!! Enjoyed this one immensely with BTS Shooting and that Freaking Raptor is Sweet!!

[@Pilottoproperties]

Thanks for showing this. Always wondered what matches look like. Seemed like a very chill vibe.

[@ryanvlk1102]

Congratulations man on your new Ford raptor some of the best trucks ever made really happy for you, man

[@silvermediastudio]

Recommendation: Try to not lift your head off the stock after every shot. Staying in the same location will help your shot-to-shot consistency. It may only save you one miss every few matches, but as you know that can equate to an additional win throughout a season.

[@DamiantenBohmer]

LOVE this video, love the use of MRAD and your spotter is a legend.

[@oregonelkoholic]

Oh man she barks good!! I can’t wait to hear some details on this load!

[@JM10344]

Right as you mentioned a death of a close person. The lightning struck.

[@kims2r]

Clicked it just for the epic thumbnail👌🏻👌🏻

[@kevinduver]

I binge watch so much Impact Shooting I just thought this was another recommended. Saw the Raptor and realized it had to be a new video lol

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Appreciate that mate! Make sure to turn on that bell, another new one drops tomorrow!

[@Ratchety]

Great catch on the compromised position. Solid fundamentals.

[@martinibjankas]

What a spotter!!!!

[@chrisdriner]

Great video as always - this kind of video is my favorite - long range - video of shooter and target

[@biagiocozza8875]

Fantastiese video Pieter. Baie dankie dat jy hierdie video gemaak het, help ‘n ou baie. Ek moet sê, dit help baie om ‘n spotter te hê.

[@WidowMaker-Milsim]

Really expierienced spotters!!! Very good

[@gerhardjansenvanrensburg7040]

Julle manne het goed gegooi.👍 Daai Raptor is 'n Masjien. Doen vir ons 'n Topgear real world test

[@tonydevich7937]

I like your honesty!

[@Muschka01]

superb! Love these long-range vids mate.

[@scottyday5255]

I LIKE WATCHING YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE REAL THANK YOU FOR BEING TRUE

[@katfur1255]

Trained by Army Sniper....we dial elevation and hold wind....

[@TheStonesvids]

realy enjoy your videos, the quality is on the top

[@nivo8912]

Is it my eyes or are the shots @816m stacked and called “yea that’s alright” haha! Some wild shooting, wish we had these style comps down under.

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Stacked baby!

[@colemanmize3779]

Top Gear episode with shooting out the windows at targets!

[@davegreenleaf5272]

Why adjust your ocular in conjunction with parallax? Always thought that was a set and forget thing?

[@politicallyinsensitive4200]

4:25; that's a first round hit at 890ish yards. I hope to be that good one day but so far I've only been out to 600 once and that was rough enough for my completely stock $350 Savage .308. It's a work in progress. Then there's the little nuances: "Spin will offset the conditions". I wasn't even thinking about spin drift. 13:10; I'd like to say don't feel bad Pete but I know at your level you'll beat yourself up about dialing with the wind instead of into it. I've done that too. In an odd way you doing it makes me feel better about me doing it.

[@silvermediastudio]

Spin drift at 1000yd for a typical 6.5CM amounts to a whopping (sarcasm) 0.16MRAD. Almost inconsequential with the size of targets shot.

[@04kurser]

I'm interested in the scope cover. Does anyone use these? Do you see a result?

[@Wuitchik3]

Good luck and good shooting today brother!

[@jannobrits5434]

Hi Piet, Lekker videos man keep it up.....When you shoot long range, what is your go to zeroing distance? Do you keep it at 100m or change it also do you use your "Zero Stop" as it limits you on the amount of "clicks" when dialing?

[@pjhhermans]

Hopefully mdt is available ina short time. Great new ride👍 I’ve got the one that eating a raptor😉♈️

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

The Rams are awesome, but sadly we cant get them here in SA. Side note, beware of the Raptor R 😳

[@chriscato1531]

Like the ranger raptor 👍

[@kwspreu]

Are you guys only allowed white vehicles in SA? 🤣 Good luck!!

[@a-a-ron8201]

Seriously though!

[@DefZen343]

White and Silver are pretty popular in my town in SE Asia since it deflects more sunlight than darker colors. Hot weather and sunlight makes dark vehicles feel like ovens 😅

[@boromassive932]

SA is very warm

[@faizalbhayat2950]

Best resale value

[@moshwithabike36]

Same as Australia 🤣 better resale, and not as hot haha

[@raynovanderwalt]

Goeie werk, julle maak regtig 'n goeie span.

[@siekbunly]

Amazing videos bro. I like video shooting long Rang

[@jeffslosson1095]

I sure would like to know the name of the bipod you are using here. Thanks and God Bless!

[@ludacrips76]

To an American like me where you are not used to accents this video sounds like Max Verstappen with a precision rifle. lol

[@tonydevich7937]

Way to go young man

[@pieterjooste2339]

"Op die homd se Hol" - LOL....... ON the dogs cookie press.....🤣🤣🤣

[@dancastillo27]

I've been watching all your videos so awesome! In the process of getting an all metal mag ' wanna match your rifle, lol. Are you using a 5 round capacity or a 10 round capacity?

[@gorillajoe3384]

Interesting the raptor package is on a ranger 🤔

[@davidevaroli7344]

Very Beautiful video! Caliber and bullet? (338 lapua?)

[@Allen338LM]

I feel like he secretly bumps die Antwoord when driving around lol

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Hahahahaha!

[@oif3vetk9]

I came up a couple rounds short at a match last year too. Don't know how but I did. Problem is I shoot gas gun so I couldn't use another rifle even if I wanted to. First match of the season is two weeks out. Hopefully the snow is gone by that time. (Ahhhh the joys of northern Michigan in early spring. Never know what the weather is going to be.)

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Packing now to shoot a rimfire match in the pissing rain tomorrow, fun and games ;-)

[@EVLfreak666]

Very good shooting 👍

[@shaungrobler3607]

What's the material you have on your scope?

[@nunyabeeswax2575]

So if I am reading the ranking chart right, APW came in third so that's not too bad.......guessing the conditions were catching out a few others too?

[@mftoutdoors7483]

What rifle & caliber ?, thanks. Great video

[@riyaanjanodien3787]

LOVE the channel , keep it up .. hopping to join you soon

[@glennwatson2751]

well done

Mooi geskied sover man💪

[@wilfredrobson7362]

Will youtube allow you to post your equipment used in the description?

[@glennwood3912]

Extremely well done video.

[@waynestrydom]

Good shooting there Piet! Which bag did you use for the back support?

[@silvermediastudio]

Protektor

[@MiggieJagter]

lekker piettie

[@erick7862]

Good one Piet. You shooting the ultra in apr?

[@MontanaWild78]

Hello Piet, sorry for spelling your name wrong in the past. I didn’t realize. What caliber are you shooting in this video? If that is your 30?Sherman, how does it compare to a 300 PRC? I have a Bergara HMR in 300 PRC and I wonder if it is worth it to buy a chassis.

[@wemcal]

Great video

[@christievorster7650]

Piet, how does one go about getting a custom built rifle in South Africa? e.g Bat machine actions and so forth. Would love to get some info on this.

[@frannaZA]

Moet net nie jou raptor sleutels vir die salesman gee nie asseblief!

[@TheMichaelbullet]

Awesome video Piet!

[@juriehelberg9997]

Dankie Pieter, jy wys nie net die goeie skote nie. Hoe vorder jou 308 en nuwe 6mm gewere? Sou jy dieselfde kon doen op die dag(weer en afstand) met jou 300prc?

[@francoisdavel1786]

Piet, why do you use a bipod and not a F-Class front rest like the latest Rodzilla? You will need less body adjustment, you will not have to worry about rifle cant, and the and the adjustments are smooth and precise.

[@silvermediastudio]

Probably because this isn't F-Class.

[@DubfromGA]

@@silvermediastudio 😀

[@froggishleap]

Are you hand loading your rounds?

[@donaldlehwidi3944]

Do you guys sometimes sell secondhand hunting rifles?

[@JM_BoltActionGunStuff]

Good looking bibod, what brand is it?

[@robinepps7274]

Phoenix

[@mftoutdoors7483]

Nice What caliber is that.

[@markmelbourne6686]

Did I miss what caliber the rifle was chambered in?

[@kutz0420]

Can you guys only buy white trucks or something?

[@allanbrand]

Great video! What bipod are you using?

[@silvermediastudio]

Phoenix Precision

[@theobotha9596]

@ 0:42 sec .... the obvious color is white🤣

[@Reverend1776]

Just a random question...why do you guys hand feed the round? Why not load the magazine for the stage? Is it the rule of the course?

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Sometimes the rounds are too long

[@adriaanstapelberg9668]

Is that oom le rich in the back ground that oom is almost there in all the long range videos 😂

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Jup he is always present!

[@johncrawford5871]

What caliber are you shooting.pls

[@filipf.5797]

Is that Garmin Phoenix 5 that watch ? :D

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

6

[@ItsReallyIan]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Nonetoochuffed]

Can you tell me what bipod you are using in the match please? It looks pretty handy for adjusting height quickly.

[@silvermediastudio]

Phoenix Precison bipod

[@ferdidelport7827]

At what distance do you zero your rifle at piet? My dad and I have a 338 Norma Magnum we zero at 100 Meters,

[@IMPACTSHOOTING]

Everything at 100m

[@ryananding2456]

Which rings and base is that?

[@joelmanahan23]

What caliber are you using

[@Arch8mek8]

what headset are you using ?

[@johanswart8116]

Ons by n match was het ek die gong ook genick. Toe se die ou ek het hom gekwes lol

[@pball98]

Wondering why you dial wind instead of just holding it?

[@silvermediastudio]

It's an open field, likely a fairly static wind. He and the spotter have probably shot at this location many times, they have notes on how the wind behaves at each station and distance to work from, and then refined by observation. But ultimately, shooter's preference. His ret might make it easier to dial than to hold.

[@claysonbonds2422]

How big are the targets?

[@glennwood3912]

What caliber?

[@sav300]

30 Sherman Magnum

[@ballistictacticsms]

Outstanding shooting and marksmanship!!!!

[@srwomack78]

why are you single feeding rounds instead of using the magazine?

[@sav300]

They could be seated out far enough to not fit the mag. I run the 230 A Tip out far enough on my Sherman that I can feed from the mag

[@silvermediastudio]

As commented, they likely have an overall length that won't fit the mag, also, he might be so far forward (zero jump, the bullet is already in the lands when the bolt is in battery) with very low neck tension, so loading from a mag and up a feed ramp may upset the overall concentricity of the cartridge. He may also have different sets of rounds to select from, optimized for barrel temperature. There isn't much benefit to that, but some people go nuts with it.

[@jimsteele4280]

What style of long range matches do you compete in? What is the name of the matches?

[@ericrumpel3105]

.....just curious, at the start of this video when shooting/checking your dope, - you do not load your bipod, it actually looks like you may be loading it backwards - pulling rifle towards you,....??.....is that a fundamental you developed that you prefer??.....

[@silvermediastudio]

Loading the bipod isn't beneficial for long range precision. It induces stress in the body and causes the rifle to jump during the firing. Also, it is not possible to consistently load the bipod between shots.

[@ericrumpel3105]

@@silvermediastudio........ lol

[@silvermediastudio]

@@ericrumpel3105 Laugh all you want, the practice has been abandoned by competitors.

[@ericrumpel3105]

@@silvermediastudio yep - still laughing ....because it has not been abandoned, only by some dudes for free-recoil, & only if they're shooting 6mm's for PRS, & that will be abandoned before long.....really don't know of any big-time competitors doing it with the only exceptions being in certain awkward positions in some stages,... & lazy-belly-roll shooters in "f-atclass" that involves zero shooting skill - just a money-game there.
