Awesome that a stock standard rifle can do that these days I know people who have spent hrs and hrs plus a couple if thousand dollars on a rifle that can't shoot that well good job
This is such a great video. The location, cast, interviews and of course shooting. Spectacular scenery. Wide open terrain and 1000yds all the day. If you're looking for a mauser!
Full respect to Mr Andrew Venables outstanding knowledge , I like to watch his professional militari experience! Mauser always have had good guns ,I think it is good move to make rifle for people don't like to spend big $$$ or people who can't afford expensive rifles. Very good video , well done boys!
I have always wanted a simple (cheap) rifle that I can use for hunting and also some long range shooting. I also came across the M18. Thanks for the video helps making a decision!
I really enjoyed this film, people pushing them selves beyond what they were comfortable with in a controlled environment, all the while using a rifle accessible to the majority. Well done.
Was searching for info about this Mauser M18 , and accidentally found your exellent video . You should rename it and mention Mauser M 18 .( as another mate commented ) After viewing this , I´ll buy my M18 with out doubt , thanks for your professional work. I shoot normally at 400/ 500 mts and put most shots in a dish size target , but after watching this fellows , I feel like an apprentice ....¡¡¡
Man oh man, i'm just one test away from passing all the hunting tests here in Sweden, and i have had my eyes on that Mauser m18 308 for over a year now! This video just makes me want that rifle even more! Great demonstration 👍👍
Really cool. I’ve posted links to a few folks I know in the market and this rifle is currently on for $800CDN. I already have a nice .308 German rifle with a wood stock I absolutely adore that cost double, but this looks like a workhorse and a great value.
Mine is in the 6.5 PRC and is as good or better than anything I own..it took about 60 rounds to come around ..but now it's good enough to shoot competition with.. 1/4 inch groups are the norm for it now
Oh, I have this rifle in 308. It's ammo sensitive. If you don't hand load you gonna have to try a variety. My 308 with a 150gn FMJBT and 42.5gns will reach 1000 but my ballistic calculator given my size and load won't come up with an "ethical" solution. After all unless you're hunting dangerous predators for me 150yds is it for me!
Dam!!! That’s some spotter you’ve got there!!!! Can I barrow him for a few trips 😂. Three calls at 1000 with new solutions 😵. And he does it again at 1500!!!! Crazy bastard.
I want one so I can stop hunting with my k98 but I'm a broke stay at home dad and the wife does not budget for hunting rifles .I miss being the one to make the money lol 😂
Respectfully... clearly this is advertising ... which is okay when attempting to in sell a product within a “ market”. However to claim a product is not capable or is not “fit for purpose” is to not understand hunting ... or being reasonably ethical. Certainly given if you do not have tracking skills when you wound that animal and not kill it. One should have field craft when hunting ... stocking... tracking ... concealment - whether it is game or “ other”. To shoot at that distance specific to killing is simply clap trap.
im the dane behind the gun. I would NEVER shoot an animal that far away. but its great for practice. And fun. I prefer a stalk up to about 50 meters. Or even better - 15 meters with the bow. But this is range fun. And that's all its portraid to be. have fun and hunt hard
That's the price of the M12. You can get the M18 for $500. I actually just bought a M12 for $500 from Standard Manufacturing because it was on clearance.
This just one massive ad for blaser / Mauser. If I'd spent $10 grand on a rifle I'd expect it to shoot well to a kilometre! This rifle retails for 10x your average rifle
Not disagreeing about it being an ad, but 10x retail compared to the average rifle? I disagree. $1,700-1,800ish for the M12 and $699 msrp for the M18. The M18 may be double what some other rifles, but it is about the same as what they are competing against. The Remington 700, and the various other rifles that are in that price range (which coincidentally amount to the majority of rifles used by hunters)
YOU LOST ME AT THE man bunnnnnn…….SHISTERS, the lot of you. I believe the barrel can twist for 1000 meters, but dawnt telle meh you haven't done the SPECS, ASHWHIPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LMASSSSSOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Kind of a unrealistic test though, I mean you're not going to get the chance to fire several shots at a Boar at 1000 metres to get your zero in are you. And with any wind whatsoever you will need to have several attempts.
Thanks for this. We said it in the piece - just to say again - this is not about hunting - this is just to show that an ordinary (hunting) rifle can shoot a long way. / Charlie
Your very good at stating the obvious. And not very good at paying any attention to exactly what was being said. Not the sort of person i would want hunting with me
On the flip side, you get people who can do it all day every day. You set your ballistics chart up correctly, you get your wind reading spot on and it's a case of dialling the turrets to meet what you've read out. Your only as good as the info and time you put in to it . Anyway, if you can get a 1 shot kill by doing your maths correctly there's no need for any more is there ;)
Really srspower... I didn't think i'd see such a dumb comment from a channel like yours... it's not about that.. it's about how capable a budget hunting rifle is out of the box.
I'm more impressed with the spotters skills to be fair
They say that the best shooters are usually standing as spotters.
The shooter isn’t holding the rifle…
Awesome that a stock standard rifle can do that these days I know people who have spent hrs and hrs plus a couple if thousand dollars on a rifle that can't shoot that well good job
This is such a great video. The location, cast, interviews and of course shooting. Spectacular scenery. Wide open terrain and 1000yds all the day. If you're looking for a mauser!
You guys are the real pros when it comes to calling windage because it definitely gets windy a lot over there. Great videos.
Seeing the bullet flight at 4:32.. amazing camara work and exceptional shooting
ends at 4:32… slightly before
enjoyed this video, just bought the M18 in 308. 100yards is my range need to stretch rifle out.
Great video. Almost had time to have your cup of tea between pulling the trigger and the 'tink' on the target at 1500. Good job.
Full respect to Mr Andrew Venables outstanding knowledge , I like to watch his professional militari experience! Mauser always have had good guns ,I think it is good move to make rifle for people don't like to spend big $$$ or people who can't afford expensive rifles. Very good video , well done boys!
Totally agree, the main use for this rifle is to get food on the table.Just wish it had iron sights on it as back up.
I just ordered on in 6.5cr in the GRS Fenris stock and I´m really looking forward to getting it.
I have always wanted a simple (cheap) rifle that I can use for hunting and also some long range shooting. I also came across the M18. Thanks for the video helps making a decision!
Ten months after leaving this comment, how do you like it? I love my M18 to bits.
What a great time these gentlemen had. I admire the skills displayed.
thanks :)

Same!
I'm trying to decide if I buy one, too.
@juanmiguellerose4015 same here
Really cool.

Just bought one in 6.5 prc. What ammo does it like?
Who can be such as accurate, if not a King MAUSER ?!?!
Bravo for the KING & LEGEND 👍
I would love to see how good the danish S&L rifle would do the job...Please make a test a day
beautiful location to shoot a awesome rifle! great vid!
I am in Australia and just got the m18 223 👍
Wow ,great great ,i know the zx is not in the same class as the zp but i really like my zx i wish i could find .ore reviews of it
No Mark Ripley joning the fun? And a nice video
Nice but the iconic 98 is a hard act to follow. Cheers from Australia.
Which model Minox riflescope was used for this test?
That was a great video guys. By the way we call our jungles in new zealand (the bush) haha hope you have a great time hunting in nz tho mate👍
thansk buddy - will remember next time. And yes. The bush is lovely ;)
@@davidcarstenpedersen1027 Its all perspective. Hope you come hunt here in NZ sometime you will enjoy it!
Nordic people know a thing or two about hunting and shooting. They have my 100% respect! Nice rifle, nice shooting!
Very nice Video ! Which Scope was used on the M18 ?
MINOX 3-15X56 FIBRE ILLUMINATED GERMAN 4 30MM RIFLESCOPE as close as i can tell
Why did you not make final adjustments with the scope and not Kentucky W and E. .??
Such a amazing shoot out at 1500 m great love m 18 mauser
Is possible to install iron sights on M18??
To be perfect for a hunter it just needs iron sights :) Other than that is a exeptional riffle for the budget.
Thats what the m12 is for
Mauser 18 Waldjagd
And the cows be like: "What is all this ringing about?"
hi is the barrel free floating ?
Great video, what ammo was used?
It was RWS or Hornady but I can't remember which. / Charlie
Oh, I have this rifle in 308. It's ammo sensitive. If you don't hand load you gonna have to try a variety. My 308 with a 150gn FMJBT and 42.5gns will reach 1000 but my ballistic calculator given my size and load won't come up with an "ethical" solution. After all unless you're hunting dangerous predators for me 150yds is it for me!
I have a Mauser M18 it's just gr8😊
My M-18 in 6.5 PRC won't feed reliably, making it totally unsuitable for hunting.
Where can I get one?
6.5 x 55 The Swedes had it right all along.
Sold me.
Bună ziua cât costă o armă Mauser M 18 cal 308 și cum pot intra în posesia ei?
One word CLASS 😎😎😎
The milsurp M48 was the closest thing to a Mauser.
Dam!!! That’s some spotter you’ve got there!!!! Can I barrow him for a few trips 😂. Three calls at 1000 with new solutions 😵. And he does it again at 1500!!!! Crazy bastard.
Fee_ Lo ml
you can. Just pay the man. He's really really good. Br - the dane behind the gun ;)
There are Canadian snipers and then there's everyone else.
What do the danish say: Mauser or Tikka?
Fantastic
I want to see what the 300 win mag comparison is
Have you shot one?
not too sure I would be that comfortable shooting 1000 with stock that close to the target. it's a bit reckless, but that's just my opinion.
awesome
Mauser - Neat!
His final comments refer to the M12 or M18?
M18 I believe.
@@jamesashford6111 I thought so too but i dont know. It makes a difference since one costs double the other.
I thought about cerakote mine a camo like on WW2 German tanks
Is it really made by Mauser of Germany or just someone using the Mauser name??
Really made by Mauser. I went to look 🙂 / Charlie
I would say that this rifle is no different from any other. Any large caliber rifle will hit at that distance after a few shots.
May I please have the brand name of the shooting sticks at the 2:26 VDO time? Gratitude
Im not completely sure, but I think its a Viper Styx.
No 8mm? Sad days
I want one so I can stop hunting with my k98 but I'm a broke stay at home dad and the wife does not budget for hunting rifles .I miss being the one to make the money lol 😂
I see so many people who dont no how to operate a bolt action
super mauser m12 und m18
Rare is a hunter shooting over 1/4 mile [400 meters]
With this level of spotter I could also hit 🎯 anything at that range...
Where 7x57
16min long advertisement
Content these days...
Mauser please please make a reproduction K98 its all I ask for!!!
x2
I think they heard you. www.mauser.com/mauser-98.html
They make the M98. Hope you have a healthy bank account judging by what they ask for them
M18 is a great rifle load my 223 with 40gr sierra bk best fox stopped ever

1000 meters is not a mile though, that would be 1600 meters, big difference. 1000m is still very impressive.

Biz barutsuz olanını yapıyoruz siz barutu buldunuz mertliği bozdunuz bizde barutsuz olanı yapip sizi bozacağız ayarsız olacaksınız
why?
Good job being a progressive company.
And at only $2600 ... what a deal haha
That's the price of the M12. You can get the M18 for $500. I actually just bought a M12 for $500 from Standard Manufacturing because it was on clearance.

The M18 is going for sub 700 us. And so what if it's an ad.
What the hell are you on? The M18 is $500.

i hate marketing of shity guns
have you ever handled or shot one?

I don’t think you understand what is being done here.
On the flip side, you get people who can do it all day every day.
