This episode of the Hornady Podcast features Rob Gearing from Spartan Precision, discussing the importance of stability in precision shooting, particularly for hunting. Gearing highlights the evolution of hunting gear, emphasizing how products like the Javelin bipod and other support systems from Spartan Precision aim to manage the human factor and provide a stable shooting platform. The conversation touches on the challenges of hunting in different environments, the balance between weight and functionality in gear, and the importance of user education in selecting the right tools for specific applications.

This guide details a technique for improving shooting accuracy while moving, emphasizing a stable center of gravity and a 'robotic' leg movement to minimize bounce and enhance target acquisition. The instructor, Shortshot Tony, highlights the benefits of this method for maintaining stability and reducing compensation. For further training in gunsmithing or drones, viewers are directed to SDI.edu/ShortShot.

This video debunks the myth that scoped rifles require no skill, as argued by TheYankeeMarshal. The expert commentator emphasizes that while scopes visually magnify targets, they also magnify shooter errors. Proper shooting fundamentals like trigger control, breathing, and stability are crucial, especially at longer distances, and no tool can replace sound technique.

This video demonstrates a practical, albeit unconventional, shooting technique for the AR-15 rifle. A professional firearms instructor explains how to address muzzle rise caused by unstable shooting positions, particularly when using improvised rests. The technique involves adjusting hand placement on the pistol grip to create a more stable brace, prioritizing shot stability over traditional form.

This video from Tenicor introduces the 'Grandmaster's Triangle' concept, a framework for understanding the trade-offs between Mobility, Durability, and Stability in shooting positions. The instructor, demonstrating high authority, explains that optimizing one aspect often means compromising another. The guide focuses on applying this concept to positional shooting, emphasizing the need to gain adequate stability or durability when sacrificing mobility, such as when moving to a kneeling position.

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for setting up the BOG Death Grip Tripod, a versatile accessory for shooters. It covers extending legs, utilizing dual-purpose feet, leveling the head with the integrated bubble level, and securing a firearm with the Death Grip clamp. The video also highlights a Black Friday promotion including free electronic earmuffs.

This expert guide details the Modified Prone shooting technique, as demonstrated by a Tenicor instructor. The technique focuses on utilizing structural support to achieve superior stability and reduce fatigue during extended shooting sessions, particularly when engaging targets from a low position. It emphasizes building a solid foundation for both the shooter and the firearm, contrasting its durability with the instability of standard crouching.

This guide details advanced barricade shooting techniques demonstrated by a Tenicor instructor. It focuses on leveraging environmental structures like barricades to enhance stability and recoil management when shooting an AR-15 carbine. The instruction emphasizes that high performance and precision are achievable even from unconventional shooting positions.

This guide details advanced barricade shooting techniques taught by USPSA Grandmaster Mark Smith. It covers establishing Natural Point of Aim, utilizing barricade height for optimal stance (standing vs. high kneel), prioritizing firearm stability before body position, and leveraging tools like support bags and slings for enhanced stability. The instruction emphasizes repeatable standards and metrics for performance.

This video reviews 17 newly announced firearms, highlighting innovative features and practical applications. Key releases include the ultra-reliable Sacko ARG50GP for extreme conditions, the historically significant CMP M1 Garand, and the budget-friendly Smith & Wesson M&P22X for training. The Smith & Wesson Model 940 J-frame revolver at number seven generated significant buzz for its return after 27 years, its 9mm Luger chambering, and the elimination of the internal lock, making it economically viable for practice. The CZ 600 series is showcased with its modular Alpha model at number one, offering interchangeable barrels and a lifetime warranty at an accessible price point.

Instruction from John Lovell and Paul Perkerson of Warrior Poet Society emphasizes that while a basic shooting stance might suffice for static accuracy, a dynamic, athletic stance is crucial for fighting applications. Key elements include balance, stability, and mobility, with a forward-poised posture aiding recoil management and readiness. They critique static stances like the 'horse stance' for their limitations in dynamic scenarios.

This video reviews several tripods suitable for hunting and precision shooting, highlighting the BOG Death Grip (aluminum and carbon fiber) for hunting stands, the Two Vets Recon V2 for precision shooting, and the Tricer HK Kit as a versatile option for both. Key considerations include weight, stability, leg closure mechanisms, and head types, with the Tricer HK Kit ultimately recommended for its balance of features and portability.
