Long Range Pursuit | S2 E4 Wyoming Elk Hunt at 770 Yards

This video details a missed hunting opportunity due to ethical and legal considerations. While observing elk in a campground, the speaker, an experienced outdoorsman, recognized the perfect shot opportunity but had to refrain from firing due to proximity to the campground and private land. The encounter highlights the importance of situational awareness and adherence to ethical hunting practices, even when presented with a seemingly ideal scenario.

This video debunks the myth that solid copper bullets require extremely high velocities for effective hunting performance. Through ballistics gel testing and analysis of 7 PRC loads using Barnes TTSX and LRX bullets, Gavin Gear demonstrates excellent expansion and weight retention across a wide velocity range, including lower velocities equivalent to longer ranges. The testing highlights the versatility and effectiveness of modern monolithic copper projectiles for various hunting scenarios and legal requirements.

This video, presented by Ted from Line45, details the shift in hunting ammunition preferences away from traditional soft points towards modern bonded and tipped loads. It highlights specific ammunition lines like Hornady Precision Hunter ELD-X, Federal Premium Terminal Ascent, Barnes Vor-TX TTSX, Nosler Trophy Grade AccuBond, Hornady American Whitetail InterLock, and Federal Fusion, explaining their advantages in terminal ballistics, expansion consistency, and penetration across various hunting scenarios and distances. The presenter emphasizes that these modern options offer greater confidence and reliability for today's hunters facing longer shots and varied game.

This video reviews the top 10 most accurate hunting rifles of 2026, focusing on their out-of-the-box performance, barrel quality, action design, and trigger consistency. The rifles are chosen for hunters demanding sub-MOA performance in real-world hunting environments, highlighting advancements in materials and manufacturing that push precision to new limits.

This video tests six different hunting bullet types fired at zero yards into a block of paper to assess penetration depth and terminal performance. The Federal Terminal Ascent and Barnes 127 LRX demonstrated the deepest penetration, while the Hornady 147 ELDM showed the least. The test highlights how different bullet constructions perform when encountering resistance, simulating passage through an animal's thick hide and tissue.

This episode of "Long Range Pursuit" takes viewers to the Zuni Reservation for an elk hunt. Host Chad Fraughton explores ancient Zuni sites and delves into the rich history and culture of this prominent Native American tribe. The video emphasizes the long-range hunting aspect, aligning with the Gunwerks channel's focus on challenging shots, shooting tips, and ballistics.

This guide details the advanced technique for executing a long-range elk hunt, as demonstrated by a 12-year-old hunter under expert supervision. It emphasizes precise range estimation, scope adjustment using ballistic turrets, and marksmanship fundamentals for a successful shot at extreme distances (1376 yards). The process highlights the importance of preparation, practice, and specialized equipment for challenging hunting scenarios.

This expert guide from Gunwerks demonstrates the significant impact of the Coriolis effect on long-range bullet trajectory. Jeremy Winters, a Gunwerks Product Specialist, explains how Earth's rotation can shift Point of Impact (POI) by over 1 MOA at 1000 yards when shooting East or West. The video provides a live-fire demonstration and recommends shooting North or South to collect accurate ballistic data, minimizing Coriolis-induced errors.

This guide details the process of transforming a factory Remington Model 700 Sendero into a more capable long-range rifle, as demonstrated by Mike Davidson from Gunwerks. Key steps include a trigger upgrade to a 2-pound pull and a precision bedding job using Devcon Aluminum Putty to ensure action stability. The process emphasizes proper disassembly, careful application of bedding materials, and correct reassembly with specific torque values for action screws.

This video demonstrates a professional long-range coyote hunt in Montana, showcasing the effective use of a Gunwerks rifle. Dustin Butler, a representative for Gunwerks, highlights the 'range, dial, and kill' method for successful predator engagement at various distances, from close encounters to over 500 yards. The guide emphasizes proficiency with long-range optics and equipment for accurate shots in challenging terrain.
