This guide, presented by a Mossberg representative, details how to effectively sight in your rifle based on hunting terrain. It emphasizes matching your rifle's zero to expected shot distances, recommending a 100-200 yard zero for open fields and a 50-100 yard zero for timbered areas. Proper zeroing ensures consistent point of impact for successful hunts.

This video details the acquisition and initial range experience with a used Winchester Model 70 bolt-action rifle, chambered in .30-06 Springfield. The presenter shares insights on the rifle's history, its nickname 'The Rifleman's Rifle,' and the process of zeroing it at Angeles Shooting Range using a Caldwell Lead Sled for stability. The focus is on the satisfaction of hitting targets at various distances, including 200 and 400 yards.

This video provides an expert-level analysis of Hornady Black HD SBR 5.56mm NATO 75gr ammunition, tested through both a 10.5-inch AR pistol and a 16-inch AR rifle. The presenter, demonstrating deep technical knowledge, meticulously documents velocity, penetration, and projectile expansion using specialized equipment like LabRadar and ballistic gel. The insights offer practical data for shooters considering this ammunition for short-barreled AR platforms.

This guide details the process of testing an exceptionally heavy 1300-grain .50 BMG projectile, nearly double the standard weight. It covers the use of specialized equipment like the Serbu RN-50 and Caldwell Lead Sled for safety and recoil management, employing remote firing for added security. The testing protocol involves assessing terminal ballistics through water jugs and concrete blocks, as well as evaluating performance against a Level IV body armor plate. The guide also highlights potential firearm failures due to extreme recoil, as demonstrated by the Serbu RN-50's upper receiver weld failure. Instruction is provided by Scott, an established subject matter expert in ballistics testing.

This video showcases a custom-made .50 BMG rat shot round, demonstrating its surprising effectiveness through various tests. The round features lead pellets in a plastic cup, designed for pest control but exhibiting significant destructive power. Tests included cardboard spread, soda bottle destruction, vaporizing a toy against a cinder block, and a dramatic energy dump in ballistic gel.

This guide details a free, at-home method for bore sighting rifles, as demonstrated by Banana Ballistics. It emphasizes a parallel bore sighting technique at 10 yards to ensure quick on-paper accuracy at the range, saving time and money. The method involves measuring scope height, marking a target, aligning the bore, and adjusting the reticle, with specific considerations for AR-15 platforms. The instructor's high authority level is evident through clear technical explanations and practical demonstrations.

This guide details an experimental procedure for testing the limits of a 10 gauge shotgun by firing a high-pressure 700 Nitro Express round and intentionally obstructing the barrel. The experiment, conducted by Scott from Kentucky Ballistics, highlights firearm durability under extreme stress, culminating in a barrel split. It emphasizes safety through the use of remote firing equipment and a Lead Sled.

This guide details a ballistic durability test performed on the Master Lock M736 Magnum series lock, as demonstrated by firearms instructor Edwin Sarkissian. The test involves using an AR-15 rifle chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO to assess the lock's 'Tough Under Fire' claims and Security Level 10 rating. The procedure outlines firing multiple rounds at the lock, observing its resistance to penetration and functional integrity, even under direct ballistic impact.

This video from Edwin Sarkissian explores the ballistic capabilities of .50 BMG rounds against 5.56x45mm NATO M855 Green Tip projectiles. The experiment involves testing penetration through .50 BMG brass casings and then directly impacting .50 BMG bullets with a 5.56mm round. The results demonstrate the significant power of the .50 BMG round, with a single .50 BMG bullet successfully stopping a 5.56mm M855 round.

This video provides an in-depth review and range test of the high-end Cobalt Kinetics AR-15, priced at $4200. The reviewer takes the rifle to 'the Bunker' to explore its features and compare it against other premium options like JP Enterprises. The description also highlights other gear featured, including Benchmade and Cold Steel knives, Casio watches, a JP Capture Silent Spring, and a Caldwell Lead Sled range rest, along with various tactical gloves and shooting accessories.
