They emphasize the importance of practice, dry fire, and understanding ballistics for both competition and hunting, highlighting the shift towards Mils and the integration of technology for precise shot placement.

This video provides practical techniques for improving wind calls using a Kestrel wind meter. It covers understanding wind dynamics, calculating a 'gun number' for quick wind holds, utilizing wind brackets for variable conditions, and a simplified 'Ryder Method' for rapid estimations. The instructor emphasizes the importance of practical experience and correlating Kestrel data with real-world observations for accurate long-range shooting.

This video details the gear KJ is taking for a Kodiak hunting trip, focusing on clothing, footwear, and firearms. He emphasizes tested, reliable equipment suitable for wet and rugged conditions, including specific recommendations for base layers, socks, boots, and rain gear. The firearm selection is a Savage 110 Ultralight in .270 Winchester, kitted with a suppressor and optic, highlighting the importance of a well-tested system for backcountry hunting.

This video from Precision Rifle Network details a systematic approach to doping the wind for long-range rifle shooting. Instructor Joel outlines a six-step process: feel, look, guesstimate, Kestrel, confirm with mirage, shoot, and spot/adjust. He emphasizes using environmental cues and a Kestrel wind meter with the 'clock method' for accurate wind calls, especially in variable conditions.
