I really, really liked the back-and-forth format here. I mean, I do love the storytelling aspect of "go through the story of the hunt, start to finish" from the classic episodes, but this really is a good alternative. And as someone who doesn't hit the range nearly enough, it's a good reminder as well.

I love these "rough cuts". This one in particular was great. Over the years of watching Meateater I've come to think that Steve as the "worst shot on TV". It was cool to see him address then issue he's had over the years and after he got his buck talk about how just over a year ago he would've had to think about the distance he just made a great shot at. Great content!

I remember my first western big game hunt, rifle sighted in for 200 yards, ready to shoot twice that far, people telling me it is going to be hard to get that close. Found a spot to glass from over a canyon that was 1/4 mile across and at least that far down to the bottom. Sat for 5 minutes soaking in the experience before a buck popped out at 80 yards and I drilled him. Same thing with antelope. Saw the buck and doe go into a little draw, raced up to the edge and plopped down expecting them to be coming out the other side 300 yards away. They came back up on my side 75 yards away. Almost missed the opportunity because I was focused so hard on the far side. Figured it would always be that easy. Nope. They can make it really hard.

I’d have liked to see the buck, but can totally appreciate keeping the focus on the importance of practicing good shooting technique. That was a super duper cool episode. It’s been a goal of mine - since someone put me behind a gun at 375 yds for an antelope - to improve my shooting. Really worked hard on being steady etc. and shot 2 doe at 200 yards this year white-tail hunting. It’s not super far, but I was real proud of myself for making those shots. Clean, solid, right-in-the-pocket shots.

Influencers have convinced every suburban adult onset Instagram hunter with a 6.5 that because they can ring a steel plate at 500 with an experienced spotter on their local flat range that they can kill an elk at that distance. For the very few that invest the time and money into the familiarity and gear required for first shot cold bore hits in realistic field conditions, long range shots on game is fine but the emphasis should always be on getting closer.

@Vidasalvaje-de-Joseleon Hunting ethics - closer the shot higher chance of a clean kill shot in vitals. Yes, sometimes you're forced to make a decision whether to shoot now or risk losing the animal but the amount of hunters that should be taking those shots is very, very low even in good conditions. Shooting on the range and shooting on a hunt not the same thing. Before you tell me I don't know what I'm talking about, I've been a hunting guide in Canada for 12 years. You should always do what you can to increase the odds of a clean kill and proper diagnosis of the animal. If that were the case every hunter would shoot animals at long range as it's less work and they won't risk spooking it or being winded. Ethics and a sure kill is worth the risk.

When I went to Marine Corps boot camp in 2007 (and this makes me sound salty or something... I'm not) we shot M16A2s at 500 yards in the prone with iron sights to qualify. And after watching this, I'm amazed that we could hit a man sized target consistently. I guess it's a testament to the emphasis and training the Marine Corps puts into basic marksmanship.

First of all, that is amazing. But let's be honest... that "man sized" target is a gigantic paper target. It is NOT a man sized silhouette. Again, that's still a very difficult shot at 500 with iron sights... but it's more accurate to say it's probably a target the size od 3 or 4 men standing side by side.

I dont hunt out west. Live and hunt whitetails in a straight wall cartridge state. Limitations of those cartridges makes your ethical shot distances a max of 250 yards. However, we have lots of groundhogs and coyotes. 30 plus years of varmint hunting out to 600 yards makes deer gun season seem like shooting fish in a barrel. Been using ballistic calculators and technology for years to make shooting critters as ethical and easy as possible. Aim small, miss small. Whether it is varmints or steel, honing your skills at distance pays dividends when you have that trophy deer, elk, or moose in your cross hairs. Great video!!

I wish more hunters was serious about being a marksman. We've got 10×12 inch steel plates hanging on our lease all the way out to about 1800-2000yards, I've never ranged the furthest. Everyone's got these big expensive setups but constantly miss deer or just wound and never find em. I've been hunting the same 7mag since I was 13 and I'm now 34. Anything within 300 yards I don't even think about. Anything within 500 I'm conformable. Getting out past that is iffy but I've hit 700 consistently. I just need to get better glass and I'll be more conformable at those longer ranges. You can have all the best equipment and still not kill deer if you're not out there slinging lead.

The fact is, the vast majority of hunter dont practice shooting rifles and aren't shooters. Its strange, the same guys will shoot their bows year round but only check zero with 3-5 shots. Adjust the "trusty" leupold or vortex garbage(gotta turn it a click past and then back, then tap the turret with a nickel") to re-zero. And have to re-zero every time they travel or lightly bump the rifle or scope. So yes, 400 yards IS long range for basically anyone in FIELD conditions.
@SammyMoore-tg5gsАй бұрын
It’s true. I have a shooting system that I shoot barely sub MOA 200 yd 10 shot groups with reliably, and I shoot thousands of rounds from field positions with my training rifle and hundreds of rounds with my hunting rifle, in a mix of different shooting positions. Because of that, I am capable of shooting well at extended distances on game. But, it’s a very perishable skill that requires constant maintenance. When I’m out of my rhythm and don’t get to practice, my functional range drops and drops fast and it’s the wind calling that falls off the fastest. I get to the range to help train nephews and friends to shoot at distance because it gives me the opportunity to practice wind calling even though I’m not behind the gun. If you aren’t putting in the effort to be consistent and to practice shooting from different positions in different conditions, you aren’t a capable marksman and aren’t nearly as effective as you think you are. I, too, am moving away from Leupold scopes. I’ve switched over to the Maven RS 1.2 in mils.

I think it goes without saying that without practice you’re not successful at least not consistently. I’d like to see more hunting

Distance is math, wind is voodoo. I don't know who said that but I believe it.

Should also mention depending on barrel twist and wind direction, a bullet will go up or down. AJ aka arrow dynamic jump. Really doesn’t make a big difference under 500 yards. But, a strong wind at 700+ you’ll completely miss if you don’t account for it.

He was shooting a tikka in a mdt hnt26 chassis. Couldn’t tell what caliber, but if it’s a stock barrel, maybe 7 rem mag. It looks like the rough tech ember placed in that chassis.
