  • Here are my top 5 tips to shoot better at long distances. These fundamentals should be learned, practiced, and repeated as often as you get behind a rifle. This is guaranteed to help you shoot better. Good gear helps of course, but proper fundamentals and consistency, are king! Build a solid position. It all starts there. Barricade bags are great tools that can help as well. Would you add anything to this list?

    I see that you are using the game changer bag. I was originally interested in this bag to put on a tripod, but was only shooting my rifle in an inside range. It was great to see that you could turn the bag on it’s side to use on a flat surface. I always leave knowing more than when I came in. You have such a great way of presenting content. Nicely done.

      @@PrecisionRifleNetwork Same 🍻 It does help a lot, like by half. Yes the blast wave does come with it, especially at a range where there's overhead cover. Though I find that people likes to show who's got the loudest bang and make their guns sound much more powerful than it really is; a muzzle brake does just that. I decided not to go with one since everybody has them and I personally prefer a cleaner look. The only real benefit I see from having it would be impact location acquisition through the scope from reduced recoil. A .50 caliber you would definitely need one. A .308, one may be able to get away without.

      @@briancobb978 just curious. I'm in the camp of people that thinks a level is not necessary. If a scope is initially mounted correctly then the human eye is fully capable of accurately detecting and correcting for cant in the system. Now that being said, I usually run a level on my competition gun simply because it's peace of mind. We're doing everything so fast on the clock that I often don't take the time to make sure my rifle is level to my eye. Kinda easier to just look at a bubble level.

  • @charlesludwig9173
    @charlesludwig9173 ปีที่แล้ว

    The key: transfer the stability of the ground into the position. There are three factors to this, bone/artificial support, muscular relaxation, and natural point of aim. Squaring up to Rifle is bs. Shooting prone with sling support in CMP or NRA governed high power rifle competition proves it and believe it, calling the shot is no problem and maintaining NPA is no issue either.

    • @PrecisionRifleNetwork
      @PrecisionRifleNetwork  ปีที่แล้ว

      Well you’re not wrong about those three things, but squaring up and npa are also important for proper fundamentals. They help you spot impacts and misses so you can make corrections.

    Somewhat off subject but how much weight are you running at the front of your rifle to get that balance point and what does your rifle weigh in total? Most people I've seen with that perfect balance point have weights all over the front of their chassis and/or really long barrels, you seem to have neither

    • @PrecisionRifleNetwork
      @PrecisionRifleNetwork  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      On this one, the weights are internal in the front of the chassis. A couple pounds worth. They are spaced just right to get it to balance. I would guess the overall weight is right around 20lbs.

      It’s 90 degrees for the trigger finger joint. (2nd one) Not the first joint near the pad and not the knuckle on your hand. The rotation angle doesn’t matter and will change depending on the barricade position you’re shooting off of. Ultimately as long as the trigger press is as straight to the rear as possible, the better off you’ll be at not negatively influencing the shot.

  • @charlesludwig9173
    @charlesludwig9173 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Here are my tips:
    1. appraise wind and calculate counter
    2. bone/artificial support, muscular relaxation, natural point of aim
    3. Point the rifle with consistent sight alignment & pull trigger without disturbing aim utilizing SMOOTH trigger control.
    4. follow-through and call shot
    5. shooter/target analysis correlating bullet strike to call to correct zero for distance/wind/weather conditions
    Now, 5 steps:
    A shooter who is just becoming knowledgeable of what is important to good shooting may be overwhelmed by it all. Since the shooter cannot remember everything that is important to good shooting, breaking it down into five steps can help the shooter put it all together.
     First, shoulder the rifle and align sights, conscious of the need to make the five factors of a steady position consistent (elbows, non-firing hand, butt to shoulder, stock weld, and grip), but without any consideration for the target. This means, do not look at the target while shouldering the rifle or aligning sights. Just allow the rifle to point wherever natural point of aim initially dictates. This prevents an unconscious muscling of the rifle to the target while building the position.
     Next, adjust natural point of aim for desired sight picture.
     Then, pull focus off the target and place focus back on the reticle.
     Now, pull trigger smoothly so as not to disturb aim.
     Finally, follow-through, continuing to aim with trigger depressed, until recoil has subsided. Follow through assures being able to call the shot which is necessary for shooter/target analysis.
