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 the process of sighting in a Vortex Viper shotgun red dot sight on a Mossberg 500 20 gauge shotgun. The instructor, Caleb from Brownells, uses Federal Grand Slam turkey loads at approximately 25 yards, emphasizing the importance of a stable rest and using a target with a shoot-n-see overlay. He details how to measure shot patterns, calculate optic adjustments using the manual's chart, and make incremental changes to achieve a precise zero. The process highlights the tactile nature of the optic's adjustments and provides practical advice for shotgun hunters and shooters.

This video humorously illustrates the common pitfall of attributing shooting errors to equipment rather than skill. It highlights that even with high-end gear like EOTech Vudu scopes and Manners stocks, proficiency in long-range shooting requires dedicated training. The core message, emphasized by the creator, is that 'Money Doesn't Buy Skill. Train.'

This video demonstrates long-range shooting at 500 yards with a focus on observing the bullet trace. The ASMR-style audio emphasizes the mechanical and environmental sounds of shooting. The demonstration highlights consistent hits on a steel target, showcasing the visual path of the bullet through the air. It's a minimalist, focused approach to long-range marksmanship.

This video demonstrates a critical malfunction where the magazine drops during recoil, a common issue in competitive shooting. Ben Stoeger, a professional competitive shooter, highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing such failures. The guide provides steps to troubleshoot this specific problem, emphasizing safety and proper firearm handling.

This video demonstrates a critical safety incident: an uncommanded discharge of a Sig Sauer P320 during the re-holstering process. Expert analysis from Ben Stoeger highlights the visual evidence of the discharge originating from the holster, emphasizing the importance of constant vigilance and proper technique even when the firearm is supposedly "safe" in its holster. The incident underscores the need for thorough firearm inspection and immediate post-incident assessment.

Ben Stoeger, a professional shooting instructor, explains common misconceptions about red dot sights. He emphasizes that true proficiency comes from focusing on the target, not the dot itself. The guide details training methods, like occluding the optic, to develop this crucial skill, comparing it to the lifelong refinement needed for trigger control.

This comprehensive dry fire program, led by World Champion shooter Ben Stoeger, focuses on refining fundamental handgun skills. It includes a structured warm-up, detailed drills for draw stroke mechanics, efficient reloads (including strong and weak hand only), and positional shooting from kneeling. The program emphasizes precision and control, progressing to dynamic movements and transitions essential for competitive shooting.
