Welcome to the 12th episode of the Texas Plinking 1 MOA At 1,000 Yards Challenge. A monthly video series where I let 5 fans come out with their equipment and attempt to shoot a 10" gong at 1,000 yards in under 10 shots. If they hit it, they can use their remaining shots on the 5" gong. The 10" gong is worth 10 points and goes down 1 point after every shot. The 5" gong is worth 20 points and goes down 2 points after every shot. Once both are hit, the challenge is complete and each unfired round is an additional point. New episodes go live on the 1st Monday of every month!

[@bawhitham23]

@@K-bob_45 The 25 creed is far better than a magnum at that distance given the better reloading techniques for a non belted cases and the consistency that cartridge can produce in terms of velocity and overall accuracy. Also the 135 grain berger hybrid he is using is a hammer in the wind.

@@TOMATO-bf1gd25 Creedmoor will comfortably get to 2950 in a 22” barrel and 135 vld’s. Lots of guys are getting 3k but most everyone says the accuracy node is 2850 or so. The new 135 grain vld bullets have a higher bc than the highest 6mm or 6.5mm bullets. So it shoots flatter, cuts wind better, and you can still spot your shot. It’s really the sweet spot for the creedmoor cartridge and it’s supersonic till almost 1500 yards.

[@AllAboutSurvival]

The combination of long-range marksmanship and the thrill of competition is what keeps us coming back to the range. The setup with the 10" and 5" gongs adds an extra layer of difficulty and strategy to the challenge. It's not just about hitting the target but also about managing your shots effectively to maximize points.

[@stevenlewis6781]

This series is exceptional in every way. Everyone should watch these before thinking about taking a shot on a game animal anywhere close to this range.

[@randomidiot8142]

Even the 500yd blackjack challenge isn't particularly easy.

[@whiskerbiscuit99]

Anyone ive ever watched shoot out past 400yd, but claims beyond that game shots, has lost all credibility w me lol. One shot call and hits are near pure myth at that distance. Sure a good shooter can walk em in and then be consistent but.... theres alot of guys with claims vs people that can actually do it.

[@jonathonhayes4990]

@@whiskerbiscuit99I’ve shot 2 coyotes at 450 yards. 1 shot kills and I totally agree with you. Those are freaking hard to do.

[@9gomike]

[@AkaSoggyBunz]

Tony's stage happened so fast, I had to go back and watch it again! Great Video! Great Builds! love to see the gas guns!

[@ronasaurus74]

Kind of just my observations, from watching every episode of this, but my best mate, who now lives in the USA, and is a freakish iron sights shooter, hitting out to 450 yards, without a spotter, 1000 in ten shots with one, agrees. If you have a mag fed rifle, in general, use the mag. You can stay on target, and just apply your corrections, without having to completely reset after every shot. Prime example in this episode- that is what the second shooter did. The contrast between him, and the first and third, couldn't be more obvious. Okay, Aaron almost belied that, with that awesome second shot hit, but his 1/2 MOA troubles showed it yet again........Of course TP sort of belies it, but he holds the rifle steady while reloading, doesn't let it drop, not at all. And he's a freak!

[@Honezjr]

The reason the first shooter doesn’t use his mag is probably because he’s seated his bullets out long in his handloads and they don’t fit in the mag. Obviously that choice has some serious downsides as you pointed out.

[@circle7motorsports]

I thought about that too

[@avadheshmalik]

I would agree. Letting go of the cheek weld everytime to reload does bring in more variables.

[@marcusd3212]

​@@Honezjryup this is exactly why he didn't use the mag. When hand loading cartridges sometimes you have to make the longer in overall length. Its depends on the freebore of the barrel and how it groups with different seating lengths. Also with a semi auto the action has the possibility of pushing the projectile into the case messing up his seating depth which changes his free bore. I just got into the habit of fast forwarding 10 seconds after each one of his shots 😂

[@ronasaurus74]

@@HonezjrYeah, I hadn't thought of that, but yeah, that does introduce the problems I described, which would seem to outweigh the advantages of using such handloads....

[@NotPhat69]

Why was shooter 1 running a gas gun like a bolt? And another thing ive noticed watching this series is the painfully slow time between shots with most shooters. Wind shift is surely a factor to so many misses

[@jillianmccauley1308]

I was asking the same thing about single loading an AR10...made me question if I was doing something wrong 😮

[@Merk21]

Agreed, my thought is if the bullets he loaded had too long of an OAL to fit the mag, then that was his only option. But yeah, the guys taking forever between shots - especially with gassers - seems to be hurting more than helping. All that being said though, they're the ones out there shooting while we're commenting on a video 🤣

[@K-bob_45]

Yeah seeing people dialing after a shifty wind drives me nuts. Nothing wrong with being methodical but the wind isn’t gonna wait

The second guy with the gas gun was really impressive for never shooting 1k, and was hoving around 1inch; even though he didn't hit. I mean they were all right there. Indifferent of him not hitting the target, he was close. Had he had a "more capable" caliber, he'd of killed it. Really impressive for not shooting much at distance. I know many guys whom have consistently shot out 800-1k and would have done worse.

[@rockylongbrake1703]

Never seen anyone pull the trigger like Tony on the 25 creed.

[@imnobody7765]

I think he's pulls it like that bc his trigger weight is set so low he probably had a bunch of premature firing (when he first build the rifle) , so he rests his finger on the trigger guard as a point of reference, then brings it to the shoe. And it just became a habit that's my 2 cents.

[@michaelvstheworld3680]

I want to pull my hair out every time I see someone doing holdovers at 1000 yards instead of dialing in with their turrets.

[@TexasPlinking]

Why? Less moving parts. Not that hard to remember your last impact and the wind is changing

[@michaelvstheworld3680]

​@TexasPlinking because it is more accurate. Ballistic reticles are nice, but there is a small flaw. The further you get away from the center and due to the curvature of the glass, your etchings become less accurate. Tony was a great example of what to do right. His first was high, but instead of holding low, he dialed it in like a pro and held on target. His second shot probably would have hit if not for a gust of wind. Now, his third shot, he probably held a little left of center which is how holdovers should be used. The guys who were many feet away from the target and trying to do holdovers is what drives me nuts. You have turrets for a reason. Use them first.
