No target is safe when Jerry is on the range
True that! I wish Jerry and Hickok45 would make an episode together just for fun and that would be the most epic video on TH-cam
@@donniebrite9170 Doubtful Jerry could afford Hickok's standard fee .
I have no idea about all that...I just like the idea of two great shooters/gun enthusiasts that have their experience with firearms getting together and shooting a friendly competition, or something along those lines. Jerry and Hickok45 are my two favorite people to watch shoot guns...
@@donniebrite9170 Hickok is an NRA shill. No interest in someone who keeps pushing them.
It would be awesome to see Hickok and Jerry "smoke some pot" together
I really liked the visual aid of the cardboard.
That was really incredible.
For sure, it was eye opening, no pun intended.
Agree, never thought so much would come off from 2 rounds.
These instructional videos are great. More videos like this are needed.
More to come!
for sure, even for us guys 20+ years, these are great reminders. Gotta do something when i'm not building my toilet paper fort.
thanks Jerry, as a new shooter ,this never crossed my mind. Wow, thanks Subscribed
I completely agree... I just got my first nice set of steel targets for Christmas and happy that I watched this video before I shot...
Back in the old days, “trick” shooters would stick two aspirin tablets to a steel background. Then there’d place a knife or ax in front and tell the suckers they could hit the knife blade, splitting the bullet, and shattering both aspirin tablets. All they had to do was hit the steel background anywhere.
Your not suppose to let the secrets out.
Unless you were Bob Munden, who actually could do that
With so many new people actually experiencing firearms for the first time, and not just going by what the media has told them, education like this is more necessary than ever.
annababydaddy I want more flashlight on bump in the night videos. Let’s prevent newbies from shooting their family pets or worse. I keep two flashlights. One on a gun and the other beside it because it’s almost always better to point a flashlight then a flashlight attached to a gun at someone or something.
You ain't kidding. Saw a video of a gun store employee talking about droves of people coming in and buying compact 9 mm's and .380's, and NEVER HELD A GUN BEFORE. That is some scary stuff. You know 1/2 those people will just leave that firearm out in the open, loaded.
Rory Gallagherfan let’s hope that it’s blamed on Liberal new gun owners and not on the responsible people who have not done so but in fact taught their children safety and consideration.
@@john-paulsilke893 : I don't know whether it will be blamed on "liberal" or "conservative" gun owners. Either way, it's easy pickings for the house burglary boyz, more stolen guns on the street. More shootings, turf wars, domestic violence. An untrained "defender" is better off with pepper spray.
@@Gallagherfreak100 yeah you're righ, maybe the posession of a firearm is something that should be licensed and controlled, like you would with an automobile
I was in the Military for 22 years, shooting a variety of targets but we never went into the details Jerry just went into in this great video. Great job!
I was “shot” in the face at my local indoor range when someone else’s bullet two lanes over hit a rivet on the bullet stop just right and came back. Luckily it hit me in the chin and not the throat. I was bleeding bad. Just a reminder to always wear eye protection. Thanks for the video Mr. Miculek. Stay safe everyone.
Hogh308 yup, I had eye pro destroyed and my face cut up. Without the eye pro It could have been very serious, (very good chance my cuts would have simply been a bit worse but a popped eyeball was a significant chance as well.)
Did u sue
I no longer shoot at public ranges especially indoor ranges. Saved up and bought land and built my own range. Many shooters at public ranges are untrained and dangerous with their firearms flagging other shooters with their barrels and worse. At least on my own property & range I can control who shoots and I can ensure they are being safe & responsible. When shooting steel targets their is always a risk of ricochets regardless of how careful you are. Building a large rock free berm and using high quality AR500 steel targets helps minimize that risk. Ignorance is the biggest risk to any shooter.
@@3erwolfpack594 man that's good i want to setup a box container range, I'm doing research on legalities and permits for my county.
Derrek Wilson, I’m sure you will make it happen. Good Luck!
Steel the only target that seeks revenge.
And Cape Buffalo
@Patrick Ancona And concealed carriers...
Wouldn't that be considered food though?
Whales, tiger sharks. I have got to check out your gun range! 😅😂
Not the only target
Jerry and Hickock in one day is the start of a good day
Extreme agreed!
Hickock is a Fudd and an NRA shill.
@@Just_here_for_fun yet people keep watching him. Not sure why.
@@Just_here_for_fun I think he stopped supporting the NRA a few months ago
@@atfsgeoff I believe you are correct, but only because they stopped paying him. The guy is the definition of a corporate shill. I have nothing against people making money in the gun industry, but making money off the gun industry while being willing to give concessions to the anti-gunners is NOT acceptable in my book. He has a giant platform, and his attitude is dangerous to the 2A community.
Steel target safety, something most people I'm sure never think about.
follow the range rules have shrapnel glasses on
Daryl V. Very important, my brother caught a piece of jacket from a .357 in the head because I was shooting at a heavily cratered steel plate, thankfully nobody got seriously hurt but it was one hell of a wake up call
I actually started using syntech ammo to avoid any chance of splashback. Unfortunately I can't get it right now so I've got to actually care a bit more now.
@@keegans5695 frangible ammo? Its kinda expensive compared to the other.
@@allenpesak6456 it's not frangible, it's actually polycoated instead of using a traditional metal jacket. The hard copper jacket is the part that's generally responsible for splash-back, whereas the lead should simply deform. Frangible rounds are made of soft copper powder because their goal isn't really to avoid splashback but to prevent overpenetrating hard barriers. Being safer at the range is simply a happy side effect, and you don't need to eliminate lead to make a round safer.
I've had bullets bounce back at both indoor and outdoor ranges. One time I was shooting a moving course with a local gun club at half range distance with a Beretta .40 s&w. The range was indoors and it had the steel bullet traps at the end. The whole 180gr. projectile flattened out to about the size of a nickel came back and hit me in the shoulder. It didn't even break the skin, but it felt like getting hit up close with the hardest shooting paintball gun you can imagine. The second occasion was with a 1911 .45acp at an outdoor range shooting paper targets at 25 yards. I guess there was a big rock in the dirt berm behind the target because the entire flattened quarter sized 230gr. projectile came back and slapped me in the forehead. Again it didn't break the skin, but it felt like getting hit in the forehead with about the strongest paintball gun imaginable it also left a large bump on my head for about 3 days. I've heard the horror stories about people dying from ricochets, and I am blessed to have only gotten bumps and bruises from mine. Sometimes things go wrong, all you can do is try to be as safe as possible.
My dad and uncle used to pepper me with birdshot at about 350-400 yards away. It doesn't hurt but it will keep you from looking up. I was shot in the head with a paintball at about 3 yards, hit my head at an angle and just stung for a second. Good thing it didn't hit flat on my forehead.
@@TheMeazy1 that time the .45 bounced back at me it hit hard enough to knock my hat off and make it land about 6 feet behind me. Not a fun situation to say the least.
These videos are more important than all the others. Most weekend shooters set targets and spray away at them. I myself was shooting a 22LR at a bowling ball on the desert ground and it came back past my face hit my father in the chest. He was heavily dressed because we were jack rabbit hunting earlier. Needless to say we never shot bowling balls again. The ball was about 30ft away.
I had a steel gong laid up on a rock when I was about 16. I was plinking pretty close with a .22lr I had taken a bit of copper jacket into my stomach. (Like suck into my skin not actually hurting me)
That was a good learning experience for me and I’m grateful I wasn’t shooting anything stronger.
Thank you for this video to educate people like me.
I've had 22lr shrapnel or part of the 44 gallon drum I was shooting at hit my arm and draw blood. Wasn't bad but it would've been if it was my eye.
Great presentation, Jerry! Back in the 1980’s when IHMSA was booming, I treated & transported a friend who shot a heavy mild steel silhouette from 30 feet with a .300 Savage. He made it, but we had the ambulance pedal to the metal. Saw a hole the size of a nickel below bottom left rib, and what entered there had enough energy to do a lot of hurt on the inside. This stuff is no joke.
Hey Jerry, this is some stuff i wasn't entirely aware of. Thanks for teaching this. This is crucial information.
Thank you for making this. A lot of new shooters see folks shooting steel(alot) but never think about the consequences of ricochet or fragmentation. Thank you for you sharing your wisdom.
Great video and I learned something that I didn't know, Thank-you
Glad it was helpful!
Great information. Safety first. Thank you for your proclivity during these hard times for America!
Great advice! Thanks for sharing the wisdom!
These videos are actually really helpful, as I'm sending them to some of the new COVID19 gun owners that I know. Seeing someone who can calmly and knowledgeably pass on information is really helpful as it makes the whole experience less intimidating. Thanks for doing these!
Like the use of the cardboard to demonstrate the direction and break up of the bullets. Very cool.
One of the best range safety educational videos I’ve seen. Thanks Jerry. You ROCK!
This was awesome. I've been shooting my steel for a few years(nothing crazy just a gong and a silhouette) and even though my angles have always been safe it was amazing to learn so much more about it and get insight into setting up multiple targets cause I have always wanted to get more. Thank you Jerry :D
Thank you for the talk, Sir! Really enjoy your expertise, and stay safe in the current circumstance!
Jerry - your teaching is only second to your shooting. Great demonstration. I’ve only been shooting for a couple of years and videos like this are fantastic.
You should run some contests to allow a lucky viewer the privilege of shooting with you (maybe pick up some tips)
Thanks for pumping out all these videos Jerry!
Glad you like them!
Thanks again for sharing all of your years of experience, like Sammy Jackson we listen when you say something, love you stay safe
Jerry can hit any target any where in the world in 3.6 seconds. Am sooooo Glad someone is bringing this to EVERYONES attention as far as shooting steel
Awesome info, never really get to shoot steel so never even thought about this. Love the videos!
You don’t find a man like him very often , he should be charging for the info he gives thanks for all the free info much appreciated hope you and your family stays well god bless y’all
This was a really great demonstrtion. Jerry is helping me get through this situation here in NYC. Thank you, sir.
Jerry, thank you so much for providing quality content that is informative, fun and family friendly.
really liking these frequent uploads
Thanks Jerry! This is huge. We are putting in a range on our property and we always want to do it right!!
making mistakes is the best way to learn, but definitely learning from others' expertise/mishaps can reduce further harm. Thanks for sharing the knowledge Mr.Miculek!!!!
Good info Jerry. Get Some!!!
Thank you Jerry for the consistency in value from these videos...
I had to watch it twice because of all the great advice!! Thank you!
Excellent safety demonstration! Thanks for always advancing shooting sports.
Thanks for the knowledge , Mr. Miculek!!!!!!!!!! Always safety first
Thank you sir. We need more people of your caliber and knowledge who can teach and show real life applications.
Thank you
I can't like this video highly enough. Thank you Jerry. Both parts are fascinating. Not the stuff I learned in RSO class but it's something I'll be aware of from now on. Those patterns were wild.
This has been one best informative videos I have ever seen, Thank You!
Dropping the info bomb on this video. Thank you.
As I have been doing a lot of range shooting the past few months with calibers ranging from .22 lr to 50ae. Great info!
Stay safe
Very very informative. Thanks for spreading the word to help keep everyone safer! Thanks Jerry!
Truly valuable voice of experience. A national treasure!
That demonstration with the cardboard barrel is excellent and the difference is very clear. Thanks taking the time and sharing with us
Jerry you nailed this. I shot steel at close range, not thinking, and the projectile came back and put a gash in the side of my head. Lucky that’s all it did. Keep up the good work!
Valuable information for the newbie and the seasoned shooter as well. Great vid Jerry.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, as I am a new gun owner. Also I haven't been out to do much shooting yet so I'll take all the tips I can get because my wife wants to come out with me too. I need to keep her safe as well. Cheers from British Columbia, Canada ✌🇨🇦
Mr. Miculek, I would like you to know I'm very glad you have a show and do the type of videos you do. Your marksmanship is incredible fun to watch and fun to try. Keep up the great work. Randy
What a fantastically informative and educational presentation! Totally professional.Thanks Jerry.
Thank you for the valuable information. I’ll be sure to remember this when we set up the target range
Thanks alot for all those infos Jerry. The visual used (cardboard around target) is perfect to understand and see it.
This was fascinating. Never really gave much thought to the pattern of the round after it fractured. Learned a lot on this one!
Great safety tips Jerry. The cardboard visuals are a good reminder that even though you’re not in the direct line of fire bullets can be hazardous to your health.
Greatly appreciate the time you take to make these videos Jerry, keep these basic shooting videos coming.
Great stuff. I need to rethink some of the targets on my range. Thanks!
never thought about. Great heads up.
I have been shooting for years but not a steel shooter I really found your vid informative thank you
I really enjoyed this video Jerry you speak plainly and clearly thank you for the information ,very informative I really never thought about it before now .
Excellent info. Thank you!
Great video, man. I've been watching tons of your stuff since I've got stuck inside last week!
Best info I've seen in awhile! Amazing shooter! Much respect 💪
Subscribed👍
Great information and demonstration! Thanks Jerry.
Great safety information, thank you Jerry!
Not shooting mild steel is something we learned the hard way. Very good information! Also for everyone on a budget paper plates and masking tape work great for close range rifle targets!
I always get funny looks when I bring paper plates to the range. People think I'm cheap I guess.
Good advice. Safety is always #1 anytime we target shoot!!
A very valuable demonstration. Keep em coming.
That card board visual was really helpful/ a good idea
Appreciate these videos, helps keep me sane.
I’m new to guns and shooting in general and am glad I discovered this legend. Thanks man. 🙏
thanks Jerry. lots of useful info. I always like learning.
Thank you Jerry, that was a great demonstration, good information for all.
Great video Jerry. Exactly the answers I was looking for.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us Jerry.
I never knew or thought about that. Thanks for the information.
Thank you Mr. Miculek,
Although I did know most of this. I did NOT know or ever consider the
90 degree base. I learned something today & am very applicative for
the information.
Thank you for all the great information!
Thanks for making the video I appreciate it had some really good safety tips
Thanks Jerry, you're the man. I was completely clueless on this topic
Great video as usual, thank you for your instruction and years of experience!! God Bless!
Thanks Jerry great info as usual!!
EXCELLENT advice Jerry! I will be showing this to any students in the future (as if most of your other vids were not already on the playlist). I do a lot of 'defensive carbine' classes and folks bring their own ammo... a lot of times it's steel cased and steel core (mostly surplus M855/ss109). I always have a fire extinguisher on hand because I have seen a small fire come from steel on steel with the dry leaves in the fall before.
Once again, SAGE ADVICE HERE!
I may do a video in the future of "how to accidentally start a range fire" with some API, IT or Lehigh Flash Tip when I get my back unf*ucked and start taking students again.
Wow thank you Jerry!!! What a cool demonstration! This is some GREAT content sir keep it coming!!
Excellent informative video, something I had not thought about to much, no a serious safety consideration when plinking, target shooting and at the range. Thank you.
Good stuff Jerry, much appreciated. Woke up to this in New Zealand, made my day. I learned not to hang paper targets on wooden fenceposts as a teenager, air rifle pellets come back at you, even the lead ones. Don't need that kind of love 😅 A school mate loaded some 12 gauge rounds with glass marbles for fun, apparently they will come back at you pretty hard, not always in pieces....
That demo with the cardboard showing the 360 degree was perfect. Seeing is believing!
Great video, sir! The use of cardboard during your demo was a brilliant way to create an unforgettable visual representation of how the round disintegrates on steel. Thank you!
Good advice, thanks for sharing
Thanks Jerry for the practical safety experience, never knew that happened with steel targets.
Have you made a video with best practices for target design types and back stops?
Great info, Jerry. Thank you for taking the time to put this together.
Excellent presentation and information! Thank you!
Mighty great information for sure.
Excellent way to show the 360 spray, great idea Jerry! Thanks for the video!
All the way from New Zealand , always appreciate your demonstrations, and sound advise Jerry.......
Thanks for the lesson. Enjoyed it.
A fine instructional video. Thank you.
Excellent video. Very important information. Thank you for taking the time to make this.
Great video jrry keep them coming
