Anti-gun people don't get this level of the sport. There are just so many dimensions of the sport to get into - the physics, the engineering, the ammunition, the team dynamics. To hit something at 2 miles is an amazing achievement. Massive respect to all those guys (where are the gals?) who competed.
Some anti-gun people are anti-gun for an AR-15 on your back at Sonic Burger. This is an art form and is widely respect. What we don't need is idiots getting guns on their 18th birthday without any checks.
@@evadd2agreed. I don’t really care about keeping the current firearms that are legal to own available and legal, but I would really like to see more of a process to possess them. Fully responsible and knowledgeable people deserve to be able to own guns.
In the actually clip of him shooting his first rounds and the beginning of this round they do say what the caliber and size bullet are. This is just a short clip of it. This was his 5th and final shot
@The Truth about Africa hurts, well the basics; I.e rifle, round and scope I don’t think is anything pertinent. Grain, ok, I can see them being a bit particular on that but it isn’t like people are asking for their scope dope.

Making the decision as a spotter to spot through the rifle scope because of the discovery that Paul Phillips made as a shooter himself before when he saw the bullet impacts better than through the binoculars perhaps made the difference in the end I think. No wonder that Paul Phillips is still the acting king of 2019.
Watch mark and sam after work on youtube. They're aussies that do this sort of stuff. Might not help you doing it but it will give you some more motivation
@@Lokotecuban2020 OH, don't worry about me, I'm well versed in several different shooting venues & equipment. Some I've updated, others I made for better accuracy. 😉
@Chris I follow a fellow Aussie thats currently chaseing 5k yrd (2.86mile) hits on 24x24 inch plates. (getting realy close) Conditions are only possible a couple of days a year. Husband and wife -shooter/spotter team.

yeah, I noticed guys shooting in unorthodox manners. I saw one guy with a RH bolt and a LH breach. what you said does seem logical though. especially for this type of prone target shooting, I agree. could also make sense if one is fairly ambidextrous - for a couple reasons, IMO
You guys should do shooter pair and all together trying to get different coloured targets for each team of pairs . It would be far more exciting plus would demonstrate if these guys decide to go hunting in pairs or as a team a hill of targets would live a short lives . Imagine a regiment of these guys with explosive rounds they can pretty much concealed be a nightmare for any foot force and even light vehicles .
@The Constitutionalist shine, now a days even in combat bro we have to be sure of whats beyond our targets unless we wanna end up crucified on CNN and made an example of by Top Army Brass.
@The Constitutionalist You could have an entire 20 year career of impeccable service and one simple mistake lead to you being disowned and disbanded by every thing and every one you have been loyal to for the last 20 years just to save face in their future political careers.
Please next time give a similar crown and cup to Paul at the beginning, and get rid of his crazy behavior. You need an independent professional to sit beside presenter and report together the whole competition. Paul did whatever he wanted to show himself as the winner. I was going to throw out when he was laying beside Dereck with a rifle to use its scope instead of spotting binoculars. He was acting like a kid with no boundaries in this competition. Even Dereck was mad of his behavior!!!
Are you hard of hearing the U.S Military has stated that they knowingly used defective 3M ear plugs and rewarding those affected by low youtube volume a 9 million dollar settlement .
The sniper from the movie shooter can hit a bean can two miles away without a spotter in the snow. I never shot a sniper's rifle I would be lucky to hit the mountain 🤣
I shoot out to just under 1500 yards; a bit less than a mile, but there is one factor I cannot overcome. When my bullet velocity drops to about 1200 fps the bullets begin to lose stability, like a gyroscope that is spinning too slow, so beyond 1300 yards or so luck becomes a major factor in my accuracy. These guys are shooting different calibers at different velocities, but they too face similar limits; just at a greater distance. At some point bullets are apt to yaw and drift off target no matter how great your skill as a marksman may be.
Weird things, unpredictable things happen around transonic speeds. What I couldn't understand was the guys using 30 call or even 338 caliber in a 2 mile shoot. There is NO advantage of shooting less than a 375 at that distance. Gravity is constant, the wind is obviously the biggest factor. And I'm AMAZED it took this long for them to start spotting with a rifle. The teams are using the same scopes and if they spot with a rifle, you literally get the same look at the impact as the shooter would if the recoil was not a factor. These guys are all world class shooter, buy some of them made mental and logistical errors before even laying behind the gun.
@@codychildress7859 We were shooting at one mile not long ago and could clearly see the effects of that transition when we recovered some of our bullets and found they impacted the ground sideways, leaving the bullet tips undamaged. Our bullets hit the transition at about 1250 fps and accuracy really begins to deteriorate badly at about 1400 yards. I think a bullet change might get me an extra hundred yards, but it isn't terribly important to do it. We are just having fun plinking!
@@340wbymag that's what it's all about. What bullet are you using? That velocity is alittle high to be going transonic as the speed of sound is closer to 1100fps. But if it's starting to tumble and yaw after settling from the initial yaw, then it sounds like you are indeed making the transition.
@@codychildress7859 I am shooting 225 grain Nosler Accubond bullets (my hunting rounds) at 3,015 fps with my .340 Weatherby. It is a factory rifle with no modifications. I also shoot a .257 Weatherby (110 grain Accubonds at 3470 fps) out to about 1,200 yards.
@@340wbymag that's impressive with a factory gun! But if it's a weatherby then it's quality. I'd DEFINITELY look at the 300gr Berger. You'll probably have to single feed. O have a 6.5 wsm and a 300 Norma. I've taken the Norma to 2000 yds but I'm fully aware it would be pure luck and magic to take it to 2 miles. If I had somewhere to shoot with that sort of distance, I'd build something like a 375 Chey or a 375-416 Barrett. Those accubonds are great hunting bullets, but those Berger bullets are amazing for long range shooting.
After telling us the usual 5 calibers they use in this competition, the commentators don't tell us the calibers the shooters are ACTUALLY using! Disappointing!
Most shooters can tell the gun being shot without being told what it is each time. Also, side note, this is a sport that costs several dollars per shot. To get to their level requires a substantial investment in time, math, and equipment.
Miculek could wipe his butt with these guys in standing position... hell hes done this length before with a revolver!!! I do love watching these tournaments though...but .....Miculek for the W 💣💨

Couldn't hear a damn thing in this competition, even with both hearing aids turned way up. But it was interesting and entertaining too. Maybe at the next King of 2 Miles the announcer will bring his King of 2 Bullhorns amplifier. BTW, where were the women in this competition? Last time I checked, there are plenty of champion female shooters out there.

as a greenhorn ,is there no camera or drone to see the impact?Or a spotter close to target?
There is quite a bit of luck involved.

Part of the challenge is the wind and adjusting for it. That's why they get so many shots
