Introduction to PRS with Tom Beckstrand
This video introduces Precision Rifle Shooting (PRS) with Tom Beckstrand, rifles and optics editor for Guns & Ammo. Beckstrand explains that PRS competition offers advanced rifle shooting education, even surpassing his experience as a sniper. The content covers the nature of PRS matches, including positional shooting with unconventional rests, rapid-fire precision shots at long distances (400-1,200 yards), and the use of bolt-action rifles. Essential gear like adjustable scopes, bipods, ballistic calculators (mentioning Hornady's 4DOF® app), and shooting bags are discussed. The video also provides tips for training at local ranges that may not be specifically set up for PRS. It is presented as beneficial for both newcomers and experienced shooters.
