@userJohnSmith if you’re not getting the razor hd… get Arken. 1st shot out of the gun!? Middle of the road? I don’t think so.

[@ForTheKing1]

It’s gonna be episode #4, maybe #5, I can already feel the jealousy from here.

[@SAUM76]

the only thing i am getting jealous over is the Weather. Damn thats nice. Hadn't been able to shoot any for about 3 months. Alabama in August.

[@ForTheKing1]

@@SAUM76​​⁠the weather has been pretty ok, just been a little hot/dry and then some wind and lightning, causing fires. but it’s cleared up from here on out it seems.

[@ringofasho7721]

​@OvertonWindex my ballistics calculator (Strelok) is now banned in the US, but my old phone still has it. It works really well and gets me good dope to my 10 inch steel at 1200. I shoot a Hells canyon max long range in 6.8 western with a Vortex Razor. The whole setup was about 7 grand a couple yeats ago, but ive never owned a more consistant rig.

[@BenjaminBrewer25]

I like the teaching videos

[@victimsvice2416]

Here here!

[@longrangeautist6117]

More videos like this. This “matter of fact” no bs take and showing people in one video is what beginners need. Good shit man

[@Dagger46G]

This channel is getting me excited to take steps away from my typical assault loadout. Im still in the army, so that's all I've known, but I see this wonderful world of touching things from far away and it makes my neurons dance and I think in time I may just get a single wrinkle on my brain.

[@MPAC-ug7jl]

This series has been absolutely fantastic. It’s been super simplified, easy to grasp, and not full of bs.

[@user-TJ365]

The Hornady 4dof app is excellent. First time I shot “long range”, 1261yds, it told me to hold 1.6 moa left for wind and spin drift, I didn’t believe it, missed about 2’ right of center. Next 3 shots, held solution from app and got an 8” group. It’s free and saves the time and ammo developing a dope card by hand and interpolating data.

[@BattleChemist]

Making those shots feels good... the reason boomers are so sour is because they've never experienced it.

[@HickPimp]

I've never experienced the Boomer culture that often gets described here. Not saying it doesn't happen but the ones I've shot with were cool as hell and loved the new stuff.

[@jiveturkey231]

Lol a boomer would allready be cleaning what he shot....and I am not a boomer lol.

[@double0evanjr271]

This series answers a lot of questions, thanks

[@CarguyRS]

This series of videos has been my favorite so far. Keep up the good work!

[@theblockyrocker9060]

Genuinely, thank you for this series. Utilizing this info on my old 300 wsm hunting rifle, and judging that on what direction of rifle I plan on going for a future build

[@hotchow8766]

I'm grateful for this series. We've plowed through 1) making the rifle and shooter as fatigue-proof as possible and 2) removing a notorious detrimental QC issue from the factory. My neck was strained in school and overseas, I poo-hooed the ergonomic block of instruction. I had my technology, but poor position. You are absolutely correct; the cheek-weld and pad should be like a tempur-pedic mattress and I should lay down, comfortably, no neck strain, almost annoyed that I have to take a shot and interrupt my nap.

[@johnsheridan6452]

That software is pretty impressive. I have one called ballistics on my Ipad I was using back in 2017. It's been that long since I've built up loads and it didn't have the weather stuff in it. I have a place where I can set up to 1000 yards now and have 100 empty cases to work up. Time to get a new chrono and get to testing again. Thanks for taking the time to make this series.

Buy a chronograph from a big store like Amazon Cabela's, Bass pro shop. Shoot your 10 rounds through it then just return it the next day

[@adamshank7711]

[@alexlawrence7577]

All theses subs need to start liking the video

[@danielsummey4144]

You should do a long range AR build next. I know it isn’t perfect but to get the longest range possible

[@ZacisBadatGuitar]

I appreciate that this is free.

[@parkervance3574]

Okay, the effort is not "zero" that being said, with 2 boxes of match ammo, and a windless day making 600 yd shots is very doable.

[@paulstoyek381]

Nice shot bucko..

[@dander0091]

Do you recommend a MIL or MOA scope? Really love this series. Looking at maybe building a budget rifle using a Howa 1500 barrel and action

[@OvertonWindex]

If you think in the yards, and inches, get MOA.

[@micahdavenport7721]

Ive got to up my game an pick up a Kestrel soon.

[@Warhawk76]

I'm guessing a .30-06 could make that shot just fime dude. Maybe I am wrong, but I doubt it.

[@Henrydscout]

The 30-06 will have a massive hold-over to compensate for a slower muzzle velocity for factory ammo.

[@NathanielSkodacek]

Not to be weird but i wanted to ask how you got that scar on your chest

[@thunder_mountain_muleys]

If you mounted the scope closer to the action with lower rings you wouldn't need to gorilla tape that comb riser. You probably thought of that even though you didn't state it verbally. Now you're setup for night time long-range under Nods. 👌 🤔🧐👍👏 😆😂🤣 Carry on....... 🇺🇲 💥🚫🐑

[@JackRyder-lh4ek]

You going to make anymore regular videos or should I just ck out shorts?

[@zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba0]

Oooh been waitin

[@Racingboom]

Do you find that your glasses mess with your ability to see through the scope? I’ve never had any actual performance issues from my glasses. But it’s certainly not as crispy looking through a scope as I would like. Like it’s not bad enough to mess up a shot but it’s enough to be annoying sometimes. Do you have any glasses boy tips?

[@OvertonWindex]

Nope. I don’t really need to wear them, I really only wear them when I’m filming. So I can see the camera settings and such. Have you adjusted your diopter?

[@Racingboom]

@@OvertonWindex I pointed the rifle into the sky with my parallax set to infinity, then adjusted diopter until I could get the crosshairs to be perfectly crispy without focusing using my eyeballs. I have 2 different glasses with the same scrip but one seems a little bit worse. If you’re referring to adjusting diop to my eyes with no glasses on (if that’s a thing) I can’t, I’m blind as fork. 😂 there’s no amount of adjustment saving my ass.

[@Racingboom]

@@OvertonWindex I will admit, I’m pretty new to shooting. And I’ve been blind for a shminute, so I may just need a new scrip. This is with a Primary Arms SLX 3-18 gen2 if that means anything. I also have a Sightron I’m having the same issues with. It’s a 6 or 8-32 I think.

[@Highbrass-reloader]

“Boomers” rifles can do that all day everyday, only dif is, overpriced, excessively promoted prc rifles are chambered for longer, higher ballistic coefficient target bullets. 90% people should NOT be taking shots at ranges past 4-500yds, simply for lack of energy transfer at distance. The % of unclaimed wounded game went up exponentially when these PRC rifles started getting popular.

[@Jeremy-qy9po]

Now this rifle is known for shooting very inconsistant in those backfire videos, could that have just been because of the barrel touching the stock???

[@OvertonWindex]

Yes.

[@rustynut1967]

Good job! From a boomer.

[@msquared9605]

Nice nice, now let’s see you attempt the same shot without all the gizmos and gadgets that the boomers never had. Not impossible I know, but will take many more shots to make impact. Because we both know without all the help up front, cartridge choice doesn’t matter

[@OvertonWindex]

Where are you literally conceived in the butt? Or your extra chromosomes in the single digits? Excuse me sorry…, can you count them on one hand?

[@msquared9605]

@@OvertonWindex come on man, you’re better than that. Try again, but take your time this go around

[@doctorgears9358]

It's not WW2 anymore, friend. We don't need to calculate ballistic tables by hand any more. You can use a calculator. Your elementary school math teacher can't hurt you.

[@msquared9605]

@@doctorgears9358 I’m not disagreeing with you at all, but nothing you said has anything to do with I said. My point is, with kestrels and ballistic calculators, just about any cartridge can make that shot. At that point it has nothing to do with 6.5 vs 30-06. Sure, at that distance, the 30 might need a couple more moa in dialing, but acting like it’s impossible is just plain smooth brained. Hornady been making a big marketing push lately between this guy and impact shooting lol

[@nilknoc101]

Without all the “gizmos and gadgets”, there would just be a ballistics table and time behind the gun to learn what the calculator spits out instantly. It’s a completely different approach to long range these days. Modern problems, modern solutions.

[@mattquadbiker3999]

Hey homie, if you sub in density altitude instead of actual (above sea level) altitude you might goober the calculations because the app is asking for pressure and temperature - both of which you need to calculate density altitude - unless it doesn't calculate it because it makes a negligible difference and i am talking straight out of my ass.

[@OvertonWindex]

No, I just knew how close that density altitude was to the actual altitude. Like 100 feet or something. So I just stuck it in there instead of reviewing Google Earth on camera.

If you follow your steps and use quality ammo why wouldnt a 30-06 work..Or a 270 or a 308..

[@bigswingin6316]

All of those rounds are capable of this shot, the 7mm prc does it easier but he just likes to stir up the boomers 🤣

[@OvertonWindex]

Because they don’t shoot a minute. And the ballistic coefficient are wildly off.
