Welcome to the 14th 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!

Great video! awesome rifles! and awesome shooters! Would love to see a .338 or some cheytac stuff!

If you go with sections of old fire hose, instead of chains. You'll get clean pass thru with support hardware. Just saying it what I use. Thinking out loud

How do we apply to do the challenge? I’ve went back and tried to look in old videos. I’ve even done the newsletter.

I look forward to this every month. The wind was tough but that 416 Barret was getting it done for sure. I'm hoping to come back one more time with another rifle if I ever get time to work on it. Nicely done once again :)

[@SammyMoore-tg5gs]

[@Klobberkrew]

416 was like “2 gallons of gas everytime he missed “

[@bmstylee]

And I thought my 338 Lapua was expensive to feed until seeing that one.

[@DominicPaz]

Not only the ammo, but speaking from experience ... that target plate is toast.

[@Paintballguru92]

We've also found the only guy on the planet buying factory 416 lol.

Made that 3 gallons for gas for CA price 416 ammo, but that M99 is a nice piece no doubt.

[@willo7734]

Wow, that .416 is awesome! It creates mini-mushroom clouds wherever it hits.

[@Palm-Pine-Aussies]

It destroyed that steel plate!

[@TheValleyFlyersRC]

Hey Brandon, just wanted to say that the 1000 yd 1moa challenge is the video I look forward to each month the most. Not just from your channel but from everything I watch. You made long range shooting video/competition fun. Before I just could not watch, nice work man!

[@Rockfordfiles42]

Watched my first episode today, and now have been binge watching every since!!! Great series

[@WillieHiggins-q1m]

This is a super humbling experience for a lot of qualified shooters, a real test. Texas wind does that to the best of em. Great series

[@martinvujnovac9427]

I often say I'm sorry I wasn't born in Texas. Even one hit in such a strong wind is a success! Greetings from Germany

It's never to late. As long as your not from the following places you can fill out our application. 🎉 1. California 2.New York 3. Washington state 4. Oregon 5. Massachusett 6 .Deleware. A new law just passed last month that "Requires" all Texas males over the age of 25 to deport every man, woman, or child that's illegally immigrated here back to where they came from within 2 business days of capture. It's basically bounty hunting. Texas Supreme Court approved 7-1 in favor of deportation. All my homies are pumped up about the new law for several reasons. 1. Texas gained 3,,116.5 new people per day in 2023' that's 17% more than 22'. We can't stand these idiots from New York, California, Oregon, Washington state. They f'd there states they came from so badly they had to leave.now there F'ING up Texas two. 2. It's a great boost to our local economy and its helping all of us financially because they're paying $1,000 / arrest. It's basically bounty hunting. 3. It's aton of fun! We having been rounding them up by the dozens around my little home town. They're was a nest of them 200 meters behind my house. I caught 6 of them by myself. It's hilarious, they are such a bunch of weenies, they usually cry and flop around on the ground screaming how they're gonna tell their moms on us. They're usually super easy to spot with blue, or pink hair. However it's quite difficult trying to gender them correctly most often times. I called a meeting with my homies yesterday to remind them to behave themselves or we could loose our newly gained privileges . So it's actually a little to fun. Then throw in the $10k per month were all Making and its probably not gonna last much longer before they revoke the new law. So you better hurry or your gonna miss the party going on right now across the whole state. It's Texas Justice

Really hope you keep this series going, one of my favorites to watch. Thanks Teaxas Plinking

[@DeadBoyJJ]

It would be interesting to see Erik Cortina do this! You guys should trade challenges. You do the blackjack at 500 yards and he does this one.

[@austinkroe]

This 100%!

[@NoMatureContent]

this is such a satisfying series to watch. Just enough tech to be interesting and then honest shooting. Its kinda like watching street car drag racing in a way.

[@craigmandall9420]

​@seann2769 pretty good guys in my area. Actually almost everyone i interact with at our ranges are really good people

[@Dirtbiker-guy]

That wind in the back round was ridiculous, the mics you have are as amazing as the shooters in that wind.

[@TheGreg6466]

love these challenge videos, I'm surprised other channels haven't done similar things. This is a lot more interesting/entertaining than watching exploding watermelons.

[@shoota314]

Definitely my favorite series to watch each month.

[@bishoy01]

Easily my favorite shooter series on the tube!!

[@SammyMoore-tg5gs]

I’ve shot a CA Ridgeline in 6.5 PRC out to 1150 yds with a Maven RS 1.2 2.5-15 scope. My target is 2 MOA, and I am able to make reliable hits with it and spot my hits through the scope. The shooter’s form was awful. Kept switching support hand positions, adjusted the rifle position and didn’t adjust his body position, his trigger pull was…..unique. It is possible to make long shots with a lightweight hunting rifle, but your fundamentals have to be even better than when shooting a heavy gun. Every tiny movement is magnified.

[@chef_hood]

Preach!!! Couldn't of said it better myself

[@CapnAhab]

Thats what I would have looked like... maybe not quite as bad :P

[@CKL754]

Look forward to these every month, keep up the great work and appreciate the effort on all fronts to make this content! Thinking out loud here and it may have already been brought up, could we get a quick look of the shooter's ammo during the intro/rifle view? Would love to see a .416 cartridge next to that Barrett and I think its safe to say we all appreciate some shinny hand-loaded or even factory brass.

[@mr.nobody68]

I'm really happy every time I see an impact. You should do a tournament of champions You should also film some of the after challenge shenanigans

Whoever said long-range shooting isn't exciting, never saw this series! I'm cheering every episode. Real talk, this channel kindled my desire to start shooting far with my ARs and now I'm reaching further with my first bolt-gun; I hope I'll one day get good enough to end up on this channel! keep up the excellent content, I'll keep watching :)

[@aeis3007]

Hard to tell if the camera got to him though. I'm a mess when people start filming.

[@geraldstanley9692]

I don’t know much about shooting except that it’s really hard at distances of 1 mile, but I see shooters adjusting scope before the first shot, lots of gun and body/position movement between shots and most baffling is a tight group that is consistently a foot or more from the target….. I don’t get it. If you’re consistently aiming for the center of your target and your shot consistently lands a foot to the right… wouldn’t you adjust your aim a foot to the left to compensate? No offense or insult to these guys…I know nothing…. But can you explain it to me?

[@rpink06]

⁠Shooter error is typically the culprit, related to shooting technique and the shooter’s ability to leverage the advantages of the the specific rifle, optics, and load. Mastering the techniques takes time and experience, and no lack of training from folks who know what they’re doing.The guys in these videos make 1000yd shooting look easy with their near misses…it’s not. Movie and TV screens show the target fixed in the crosshairs…it isn’t. At 1000yds, a 5”diameter fixed target is in constant, and sometimes dramatic motion against the reticle, as a function of shooter’s stability, pulse rate, wind gusts, etc. Temperature, cardinal direction of shot, azimuth to target and a host of other variables must be measured and properly accounted for before touching the trigger…and especially wind. At that range, the projectile will pass through multiple winds of variable energy and direction, and it’ll move the projectile left, right, and even up and down, on its path down range. This one’s an obstacle that takes experience behind the rifle…and luck…to overcome. Long range rifle is challenging and fun, and the competitors are amazingly open and helpful with one another. Make a point of trying your hand at it; you’ll be glad you did!

That was some impressive shooting given the wind. Especially the guy who had just recently built his rifle and the guy who had never even shot out to a thousand yards before. I greatly enjoyed this video. Given Brandon seems to have an extensive collection of highly accurate rifles and given this channel's focus on precision shooting, I'd love to see Brandon do the "1 MOA All Day Long" challenge that is going around now.

[@richardoliver1468]

[@recoilrob324]

I've shot 1000yds prone off a bipod with an AR-50 and it's NOT easy. Even with a rifle that can shoot well under 1/2 minute at that range....playing the wind was something I just wasn't good enough at doing to score well. Unless it was totally calm I sucked BAD. Calm the rifle could hit clay pigeons 5 out of 5 but that didn't happen often. Kudos to these fellows!

Does no one have an anti-cant device/bubble level on their scope tube? At 1000 yds, that cant will make a big difference

I was taught to find the best position you feel the most comfortable shooting and then leveling your scope to that position

Cool series for sure. Surprised how few of them are running covers on the suppressors. Definite difference in mirage after a few shots for my setups. Titanium suppressor admittedly probably doesn't help.

Hi Brandon. I watch each episode. I look at the mirage and the flag behind the targets to read the wind. However, it seems that some of the guys read it different or not at all. I was wondering whether you could ask each shooter after he/she shot how they read the wind.

[@BrianOlsen-j1h]

Sometimes folks that hand load have high BC bullets seated out far enough that the cartridge overall length won't fit in the magazine. Some shooters don't want to run the risk of damaging the tip of the bullet by feeding from the mag

[@gunfunandstuff9226]

in addition to what was said earlier about OAL being longer than magazine length.... my handload rounds for "precision" have minimal neck tension, so handfeeding reduces/eliminates the bullet possibly hitting the feed ramp and changing the round's OAL
