This video assesses the lethality of the 6.5 Creedmoor for hunting, comparing it favorably to the .308 Winchester for long-range precision due to superior ballistics. It recommends specific Hornady ammunition for different game sizes and highlights the cartridge's low recoil, especially when suppressed. The speaker, representing Thompson/Center Arms, provides practical advice on effective hunting ranges for elk and deer, emphasizing the importance of proper bullet selection and ballistic calculations.

This video features Gunwerks Founder Aaron Davidson discussing the development of "The Reserve" hunting program with Derec Davidson, highlighting its opportunities. They also conduct a Q&A session focused on hunting preparation, drawing from Aaron's recent podcast insights. The video aims to provide valuable information for hunters and potentially firearms enthusiasts interested in high-end hunting experiences and preparation.

The .308 Winchester remains a highly viable hunting cartridge despite modern alternatives. Ballistic gel tests at 500 yards showed 20 inches of penetration with reliable expansion. While it exhibits more drop and wind drift than cartridges like 7 PRC, its widespread availability, affordability, and inherent accuracy make it a top choice for hunters, ranking second in popularity.

This video, "Venator | A Reserve™ Film," follows Aaron and Derec Davidson on a hunt for world-class stags at Venator's private Oklahoma estate.

This video showcases a remarkable 1376-yard elk hunt by a 12-year-old using a Gunwerks rifle chambered in 7mm Rem Mag. It highlights the critical importance of precise range estimation, scope adjustments (32.5 MOA), and marksmanship for extreme long-range success. The hunt involved significant preparation, including hiking and dry-fire practice, culminating in a successful two-shot engagement on a bull elk.

This video demonstrates the significant impact of the Coriolis effect on long-range bullet drop, particularly at 1000 yards. Experiments show directional POI shifts of up to 11 inches (over 1 MOA) when shooting East vs. West due to Earth's rotation. The data suggests collecting ballistic data North or South to mitigate this vertical error.

This video details the initial steps in transforming a factory Remington 700 Sendero into a long-range precision rifle. Key modifications include upgrading the trigger to a crisp 2-pound pull and performing a crucial bedding job on the recoil lug for enhanced shot-to-shot consistency. The process emphasizes meticulous preparation and precise application of bedding compounds and torque settings for optimal performance.

This video showcases a successful long-range coyote hunt in Montana using a Gunwerks rifle. Dustin Butler demonstrates effective predator calling and engagement techniques, highlighting the rifle's performance across various distances, from close-range shots to over 500 yards. The 'range, dial, and kill' workflow is emphasized for efficient long-range hunting.
