Quickstart 6: Fire Tab - G7 Handheld Ballistic Calculator

This video explains the difference between base wind and wind vector inputs on the Revic PMR428 Smart Rifle Scope. It details how to use the wind vector mode for more accurate long-range shooting by accounting for factors like spin drift and aerodynamic jump, contrasting it with the simpler base wind mode suitable for shorter ranges. The instructor emphasizes a specific workflow for entering wind data before dialing range for optimal accuracy.

This video emphasizes the critical role of ballistic solvers in long-range shooting. It highlights Applied Ballistics' solver, available on various platforms like smartphone apps, Kestrel devices, and Accuracy First's scope. The core message is that the same solver runs across these devices, accessing a consistent library of tested ballistic coefficients, ensuring solution accuracy is device-independent. The Kestrel is recommended for its handiness, versatility, and dependability, especially for integrating live atmospheric data.

This video demonstrates how to compensate for using ammunition that does not match a pre-calibrated ballistic turret or rangefinder. By shooting drop data and iteratively adjusting the estimated muzzle velocity in a rangefinder, the shooter was able to accurately predict and hit targets at extended ranges (up to 950 yards) despite using slower-than-expected black powder in a muzzleloader, effectively creating a custom ballistic solution on the fly.

This video explains how to achieve accurate shots beyond a ballistic turret's calibrated range. It details using a G7 ballistics calculator to determine necessary MOA adjustments for extended distances, factoring in bullet BC, muzzle velocity, and environmental conditions. The instructor demonstrates dialing in precise elevation and windage corrections for a 1175-yard shot, highlighting the importance of accurate ballistic data and scope adjustments for ultra-long-range success.

This video details the process of gathering ballistic data to create custom turrets for long-range shooting. Mike Davidson from Gunwerks explains how to use ballistics software, verify zero, and shoot at known distances to collect actual bullet drop information. This data is then used to refine the ballistic profile and build a drop-compensating turret, transforming a factory rifle into a long-range weapon.

This video details the process of zeroing a new rifle and setting turret zeros, emphasizing barrel break-in procedures and precise scope adjustments. Instructor Mike Davidson demonstrates how to achieve a 100-yard zero using a G7 scope with 1/4 MOA click values, highlighting the importance of accurate measurements and adjustments for consistent long-range accuracy. The segment also touches on the Lost Brigade Project, a wounded veteran initiative at the Peacemaker National Training Center.

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.
