Mountain Shooting Tips, and the G7 BR2 Rangefinder

This video explains the fundamental differences between Minute of Angle (MOA) and Milliradian (MIL) as units of angular measurement used in rifle scopes. It clarifies that MOA is 1/60th of a degree, equating to approximately 1 inch at 100 yards, while MIL is 1/6400th of a circle, equating to 10 cm at 100 meters. The instructor notes that most precision scopes use quarter MOA adjustments, allowing for fine-tuning.

The 7mm PRC is emerging as a dominant long-range precision rifle caliber, poised to surpass the 6.5 Creedmoor by late 2026. This is attributed to its heavier bullet weight (160-195 grains), higher velocity (upwards of 3,100 ft/s), and superior energy output, making it more effective beyond 800 yards and a better choice for large game hunting. The 7mm PRC offers an evolution in long-range capability, fitting a 'do-it-all' role more effectively than its predecessor.

This video demonstrates a fun range day focusing on reactive target engagement with .204 Ruger and .22 Nosler calibers. Expertly handled by the speaker, the session covers shooting various targets from 25 to 100 yards, highlighting the performance of different ammunition types and rifles. The guide provides a structured approach to replicating this type of training, emphasizing safe firearm handling and understanding ballistics.

This guide details a long-range shooting session focusing on zeroing the Vector Continental 2-12 scope and comparing the ballistic performance of different 5.56mm ammunition types. It highlights the importance of proper zeroing procedures, utilizing ballistic calculators, and understanding how ammunition changes affect holdovers. The instructor, an experienced hobbyist, self-critically analyzes personal errors in zeroing and technical failures with apps, emphasizing lessons learned for future range trips.

This video from Ballistics Lab provides an expert-level explanation of standard deviation in ammunition performance. The instructor demonstrates how lower standard deviation in handloaded ammunition leads to tighter groups and more consistent impacts at longer distances compared to factory loads. The content highlights the practical application of ballistic data for improving shooting accuracy.

This video demonstrates that a budget AR-15 build, often referred to as a 'Special (Poor's) Rifle' (SPR), can achieve practical accuracy at 1000 yards for under $1000. The hosts, experienced shooters, highlight the evolution of the AR market and the accessibility of long-range shooting with modern optics and ammunition, while also discussing potential challenges with budget components.

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.
