"I'm not a rifle man."
Says the greatest off-hand rifle shooter I know.
He's so modest! He probably sincerely doesn't think it was a big deal.
Matthew Quigley also said he didn’t like shooting pistols........
@@moparrtman6970 I think he said he didn't have much use for them. 😉
Sifo Dyas correct!
Said I didn't have much use for them... Didn't say I didn't know how to use 'em.
"I just pretend to be a rifleman"... hits a dog size target at 230 yards from a standing position(with iron sights). Sure you do.
I know right, that’s not natural
@@keyboardoperator802 it's almost unnatural for him not to hit it on the first shot.
Also with 450 Bush 🤣
Yeah and with his perfect eyesight too..
Hes a cyborg when he misses he pauses and is like does not compute I never miss
I've had this exact same rifle for about 3 years, and it's really become one of my absolute favorites. It puts a whole lot of thump into a compact, light, classic package.
I'm happy for this channel still "alive" and strong!
Awesome as always🤘
I love Hickok. He reminds how my father and grandfather taught me how to shoot and more importantly how handle firearms. I taught my daughters many years ago in the same methodology. The basics never change.
Hickok: "I'mma gonna shoot a ram."
Me: "What ram?"
John zooms in.
Me: "What ram?" still
John centers the image
Me: Looks carefully at backdrop - barely see outline of ram. Hickok hits it on 2nd attempt at 230 yards...on iron sights.
Me: "Dang! Do not trespass on this man's property!"
Dude same I was looking at the red target and didn't see the ram until he literally knocked it over
You must be quite poor shooter yourself, or you actually never shoot... that's why you are so easy get impressed.
@@lulolee5325 yah everyone in this comments section must also be really bad shooters because they're all impressed. Definitely what it is 🤦🏿♀️
No surprise, couch potatoes and keyboard warriors often are bad shooters and easily get impressed, or very easily hate someone if it doesn't match their beliefs :):).. In a shooting range among seasoned shooters you not going to impress anyone by hitting a target like this at 200 yards shooting with rifle.
Hell yeah I was waiting for the zoom?? 😨
Randy Brown who owns Randys Hunting Center in Bad Axe MI is the one who convinced Ruger to pursue this 450 round. He had to put up a lot of money before Ruger would move on it. The rest is history. Now the 350 round has also been successful with smaller hunters ( less kick ). Congrats to Randy & Ruger in knowing what the hunters wanted.
I’ve got one of those in .308... gray laminate. It’s insanely accurate, unreal. 1/2 Moa with several factory loads. Sub Moa with everything I’ve tried. It’s a keeper.
I remember reading about Cooper’s scout rifle concept as a kid in Guns & Ammo. Always loved the idea. The Steyr was always cool but so expensive. I really like these rifles. Thanks for the video!
thepowerbill1 was that the one with the Steyr another 2 and the Mossberg MVP in .223?
thepowerbill1 if so I still have that issue in my collection
Ruger GSR Steyr scout Savage scout and mvp I just checked the article was that it?
That Steyr's a beauty and a beast. Have you seen Ian's video about it on Forgotten Weapons, it's a really good look at it (I've never seen one in person, sadly).
I'd have the Savage scout rifle before any of them. It'll be the most accurate out of the box, most reliable, cheapest, and probably most comfortable. It won't be the prettiest, but I don't care about that.
I learned early on to be cautious when someone sells their skills short. It usually means they are not where They want to be. But usually will outperform most of us. It's called modesty, Lol.
It's a bellcurve, in any fields, people who know nothing about that field won't have any confidence in their skills.
people who know little in a field are going to think they know everything and be overconfident.
real experts understand they still have to learn a lot so they are modest.
Sorry if my english is weird, hello from France !
@@rakshas1340 your English is great!
@@iamthehype3684 Thank you very much !
because were we want to be is perfection lol
Kinda like the old saying, beware of the person that only has one gun ;they probably know how to use it!
This is one heck of a powerful round. I just ordered an AR-15 upper the other day chambered for 450 Bushmaster and I cannot wait until the ranges open back up
“I’m not a rifleman”
Shoots a target about 4ft long and 3ft high from 200 yards with iron-sight...
STANDING...off hand...isnt that the most riddiculous thing about it? :D ... i would not hit it probably even from the table sitting with bipod
I know enough to get by I love my 460 weatherbe magnum. Great for home 👍 defense💪
@Blake agreed
@@babbyfacerevocation2740 Yeah especially if you can line up about 5 in a row all with body armor and you use solids.
He does alright.
I swear this thing looks and handles like an updated Lee-Enfield Jungle Carbine, but for a new generation.
How dare you ignore that beautiful mauser style claw extractor :)
That’s the very reason I bought mine 😎
The no.5 has a lot of fans, for good reason. I've had mine for 35 years, anything that looks and handles like it gets my attention
maybe thats why I find it so sexy!
Exactly what I thought the first time I saw one. Reminded me of the No.5MkI I used to shoot feral pigs with.
“All the gun banners should be very happy today, and we don’t wanna do anything to make them happy”. Man, this guy is the best!!!
Deer, ram, subcompact cars that .450 Bushmaster ought to be sufficient! That would be a great addition to my Ruger collection.
Why are you shooting subcompact cars??
@@cjr4286 I shoot'em because there's usually a progressive liberal driving it. ;-)
@@cjr4286 Those poor little cars...
Star Wars fan?
@Judge Dredd That's progressive liberals. It's about all they're good for. Get a sense of humor there Drudge Jedd.
Had to get that rifle when I had the chance. So much fun. My favourite.
Rifle: "booooom"
Magazine spring: "weeeeeeeeee"
I am glad u said that I thought I was going mad lol
Same here
🤣
Bang and twang
EinVolk EinReich I can confirm Accuracy International CS mags work as well, I swapped the Ruger one out with no problems.
There's nothing like the feel of wood and steel. :) Great review, thanks.
Mr. Hickock45. I have been watching you since i were 12 years old... I am now 24. I truly have learned from you and enjoyed your channel for many years now... I wish you many happy returns and all the best. I still watch your videos and enjoy your content. I love your channel and would love to see your videos untill the end 😉
Thanks for your long-time support. Good to know we ruined the mind of at least one adult, beginning when he was a pre-teen, and then all through his teen years and into adulthood. I'd say there's no hope for you after all that exposure to my unstable mind! :-)
Hickok45, you remind me my grandfather...
Take care of you.
And continue to do the best video on firearms we can see on TH-cam!!!
Thank you.
I have a 450 Bushmaster in a Bergara rifle. I hunt in mainly wooded areas and have taken three deer with it. None have gone more than twenty yards. I really like this round.
Glad you reviewed this. :) Keep up the good work.
I never got to meet either of my grandfathers. One was a historical gun collector though. I like to imagine he would have been a lot like you, sir. If you have grandchildren they are extremely lucky to have a male figure like you in their life. Blessings to you and yours this holiday season!
I love Ruger... and I love learning things about shooting with you, Hickok45. Greetings from France ! Live is fun !
This guy is unbelievable. I have nothing else to say. Life is Good.
Good muzzle control at all times.
You are like my husband on the range. Safety safety safety👌
Thank you for the informative content. I like how hickok45 videos are concise and entertaining to watch.
Been waiting for this forever!!!! Thanks Hickok. Life is good
"It's a little hard to see"
Meanwhile here's me looking at the little square target not noticing the goat target until it fell.
I didn't realize how far away the target was until the camera zoomed out... Nice shot Hickok.
I like this guy's sense of humor. First time I've seen his videos. And a good shot.
That's a gorgeus and powerful gun. You look so much better with this stuff than walking. Respect H.
The ghost of Col. Cooper, still with us!
"I'm really proud of myself, what a marksman!"
Two minutes later with the yellow bottle "I missed on purpose"
Jajajajaja no matter, Hickok45 I still proud of you and I always have fun watching your videos.
Thank you from the south of Spain where is hot almost the entire year.
Sorry for my English! ^^'
Love your videos Hickok45
Thanks for everything that you do !
A lot of energy. The way it knocked over the ram at the beginning.. damn.
And the way it sliced right through the paper target at close range!
LOL glock 19, the best gun for the fence! You guys are the best TH-cam gun reviewers, hands down. Life is good!
"I like to miss one ever now and then 😁" that's a nice rifle ✌️
You're the man, Hickock!
I bought mine 3 years ago, I had feeding issues with the Ruger mag. I noticed the mag looks exactly like my Accuracy International CS mags for my .308. The AICS mags work, with no more issues except the floor plate rattles loose even on the AICS mags.
Thank You Sir, for mentioning SDI, I've been looking for something to do in my retirement, which I can enjoy, make a little money, along with making new friends, and gunsmithing just may be it.
My own background, I was a combat Infantryman USMC in Vietnam, and later became a Scoutsniper. I shot a high expert with the M14, in boot camp, at 100, 200, 300, 500yrd targets used it often as a sniper rifle in
Vietnam. Actually I prefer it over the Remington 700. This was 1968, at Scoutsniper school we shot at 200, 300, 500, 600yds, with 500yrd point of aim point of impact. Of course at 2/300yds, you hold under target, at 600yds bullet is dropping, so you hold over target.
PS, I hated the M16.
Love my scout, have it in .308, quality weapon
Love that the subtitles put Hickok as pitcoc
Had mine for a few years now. Devastating on pests with 225 FTX and great on game with 275g Barnes. You don't even need the brake, its a wonderful lightweight gun.
Love those short thumpers great looking rifle👍🏽👍🏽
I feel the same way about fat bored revolvers
I love my Gunsite Scout.
Michigan hunter here, I have 3 rifles in 450, impressive performance. I carry mine in the big woods and let the youngins carry the mags
Love the Ruger Gunsite Scout. Mine is .556 nato/.223 Rem to compliment my Windham Weaponry Dissipator. Thanks Hickok45 !!!
Ram 230 yards away hard to see BOOM ram falls down! Thank you Mr Hickok 45 Sir and John for all your hard work. Best channel on TH-cam
I've got one in .338 Remington Ultra Mag, love it!
Ouch! To the shoulder and the wallet!
Yep, the rounds ain't cheap but the recoil isn't that bad.
MyHollowpoint might wanna get into reloading
As bad as I shake? Powder would be everywhere :)
Hey, what's that $ going for in .338 Rem. Ultra Mag?
My son has an American ranch in 450 Bushmaster that he uses to take Yukon moose up here. The 250 Factory Hornady FlexTip penetrates surprisingly well and kills moose dead! Love the concept of this cartridge! Love your channel here in the Yukon!
Not a rifleman? Coulda fooled us! Oh, wait. You do fool us! Every time you review a rifle! ;) Thanks Hickok. You and John, always my go to guy's when I need to learn about a new firearm! First place I search! I always watch your new videos. But often find what I am looking for in your old videos! A wealth of knowledge!
Everything I buy. I watch your reviews first. Your an excellent marksman with a lot knowledge and I appreciate what you do keep it up 👍🏻
Cold where you are?
Here in Perth we're facing a hot, dry 40°C day.
For our American cousins, that's 104°F.
Great for Bushfires or a day at the Beach!
By the way, Hickok. Thank you once again for your entertaining insights. 👏
🇦🇺🇺🇸
I live in kentucky just north of hickok, so we have similar weather. Today it is 5c and nonstop rain for two days.
This man's shooting accuracy is envious, Sheesh
Great shooting as always Sir
I have followed you for years and I have learned to respect your unbiased comments that have motivated me to purchase several weapons based on your evaluations. I would like to see you reviewing the BM9 from Brigade manufacturing since I have seen some positive evaluations on them. Looking forward to seeing a video on them. Thanks!
I enjoyed this, Beautiful rifle!
Sounds like the follower spring could use some beefing up.
I love my Ruger 450 american bushmaster. Set the sights after my first shot at 100 yards..........haven't missed a shot since. Great gun!!!
They can take the down elevator! The wood and checkering is gorgeous!
I have this in .223 and I love it. I'm a left handed shooter too, so my left handed rifle, with all of my accessories and such, is really personalized. My family can't use it properly because they're all right handed
Beautiful rifle! I love my 308 GSR...very handy. I will have to get one of these.
Would really like to see 10rnd magazines for this one. Hmmm, modified 308 mags?
I've always been blown away ( pun not intended) with how good these Ruger rifles are. They are short and make perfect deer rifles. Where I hunt is very heavy with brush and these big pills work good for getting through the buck thorns . The nice thing about these big boys is you can opt for a lighter projectile and stay around the same charge and pick up a fair amount of yardage . They seem to work real well .
gorgeous gun, and Hickok is of course as classic as always! Great video! Gotta get me a ruger gunsight in something heavy!!
Wow. This man so amazing.
Great little rifle! Mine is chambered in .308 👍👍
Perfect to put across the four wheeler gun mount and hit the woods.
How is it for build quality. I have the Ruger American in 308 and I am really not that impressed with it.
I also have one chambered in .308 Win, left handed model.....no complaints👍.
DesertFernweh
As Hickok states it’s a step or two up. I have no complaints.
@@DesertFernweh i have the original scout model. .308 I put a vortex strike eagle 1-8 and I'll never ever get rid of it.
Yes true that I love my scout rifles off the quad so easy to handle
The one thing I think is missing on these commercial bolt rifles is stripper clip guides. I learned to shoot on milsurp rifles and there’s something to be said for that loading system. The clips are easy to carry, and reloading is fast once you get used to it. Thanks for showing us all the cool guns, Hickok!!
Ruger just sent mine back. I had some cosmetic and stock issues with it. They replaced the stock and load tested it. The gun printed a three shot group all in the same hole at 50 yards about a 1/4” to the right of dead center with test target they sent me. They also sent me a few extra metal mags with it. It’s a beautiful gun. Reminds me of a lee enfield Jungle Carbine. Just like my old American Ruger replaced with this gun it prefers FTX type bullets. Any type of blunt pistol type bullets struggle to smoothly cycle in it. I see you had to work the bolt a little to get the rounds in the chamber like I do with both Ruger 450 BM models.
Love the size or length of the rifle.
Beautiful
Indiana has made rifles legal for the past 3 or 4 years. My favorite rifle for deer has become my savage axis .243 in hardwood
The constitution has made it legal for almost 230 years......
That's a piddly little cartridge! It's fine for Indiana but you'll want a .30 caliber rifle if you venture west to hunt.
.243 is my favorite rifle cartridge, and I currently don't own any other calibers of centerfire rifles. You can do almost anything with it.
@@The_sinner_Jim_Whitney key word: almost
I'd venture to say that. 308 or .30-06 is about as close to a universal cartrige as you can get. Load down to 110 grain for varmints or up to 220 for moose and bear
jordan hicks I live in West Virginia. I don't hunt, but back when I did I almost NEVER had an opportunity for a shot over 100 yards. In the Appalachians, you're hunting in tight valleys with dense tree and brush cover, from hillside to hillside, I'd say the average shot on a whitetail deer here is probably 60 or so yards. .243 is an easy round to control, shoots super-flat, and won't destroy a whole lot of meat, and kills them dead as a hammer every time at the ranges we hunt at. We have no need for retaining energy over 5-600 yards' distance like you folks out west do.
"I like to miss one every once in a while. It makes people feel better." LOL!! Love it!
You ARE a clean talkin B.S,n old man an AMERICAN TREASURE! who's words of wisdom shall be valued forevermore
In Indiana, rifles .243 and larger are now legal for deer hunting in the past few years. I still prefer my .450 bushmaster AR.
I am from Indiana to. What part are you in?
68camaro86 would be nice if the made .270 legal in Indiana
Brandon Wood .270 is legal on private. Only reason I’ve leased the past 3 years. Use that, my Henry 30-30 and a Ruger Ranch 7.62x39. State land cartridge list needs expanded.
Very nice rifle, I may need to buy one. 🇺🇸
I love the wood stock versus the plastic ones. I could see this in my hands in the future.
Check out the Savage 110 Wolverine or Scout first, I have time behind both Rugers and both Savages, and the Savages make the Rugers look bad. Savage is WAY smoother in the action and the stocks are way better. Christensen makes one that makes these two other brands look like crap but they are like $1300, but well worth it.
There's better guns in that caliber.
in my country there are no weapons like this,but your videos are always entertaining,good work,i'm your fan.
nice short brush gun. great deer rifle. thanks hickok. i'll be looking for it online.
I missed, on purpose XD love this guy
that was a cracking shot
An acquaintance of mine is selling the same rifle and of course, I'm interested in it. Never shot one and wanted to see a demo. Of course Hickock 45 has the demo I was wanting to see. Now I can't wait to try it out this weekend. Thanks Hickock!
Very nice gun had it for two years.very accurate got few deers with the gun like it .thanks for your review
Walnut and steel. Maybe it's the "boomer" in me, but that's beautiful! Great video . . . as usual 😄
Seen one once , went back the next week and she moved in with me ! 👍
Imagine the cops listening to the audio “I’m gonna smoke this pot”
Lmfao 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
He is the cops.
😝✌🏻 💨
Lmao
They’d be like: alright time to ruin his life over a plant
Happy hickok45 makes me smile!
Just love to see these big bore rifles in action
The eye relief range on a scope would have to be massive on that rail.
Hickok: “I wouldn’t call this a pistol cartridge.”
Magnum Research: “Hold our beer.”
If you look up a scout rifles heritage, it is meant to use a long eye relief scope so you can have max peripheral vision of your surroundings. Don't want anything sneaking up next to you out of the bushes while you're zeroed in on your target through the scope. Also makes the rifle incredibly well balanced and easy to carry.
"Good thing its not a defensive rifle"
😆
Or an Assault weapon.
Unless hes behind the fridge...
Down the block.
You're great ....super shot too..after long day a work you're vids are relaxing
He's got a good sense of humor, as well as he's a good shot.
Hey John, could you zoom in on the targets a little more. I like to see the targets explode or move. It also helps to see where 45 is hitting. Thanks..
Also nice to be able to even see what he was shooting at in the first place... I mean, it’s nice to see a shadow wiggle in the background, but we want to see these things fall.
Hickok might be able to see them, but unless you zoom in a bit more, *we* can’t. lol
Appreciate y’all from Texas ^^
Bryan Goodspeed same here
Looks beautiful, another great video Hick
My good God ... If there is a war conflict, I would love to be on your side, for sure. That second shot was pretty impressive.
Gotta reload it to make it economical to shoot. I have a real hard time finding it locally
Yeah I'm glad you brought me back down to earth with that lol.... I really want one but, no ammo=no good for me.
Morning, Hickok
Hickok45, if y’all are ever up in New England let us know. I’d love a meet and greet. You are the man!!
I built an AR 450 bushmaster dropped a nice 7 point at 60 yards. Bammm love it.
When he says "hard to see" that means he has 50 percent hit probability.
Hi from Sweden 🙋♂️🇸🇪
My grandpa left me with a 22 lr rifle, don't remember the manufacturer, but it had a nice peep sight like this one.. My favorite style of rifle sight, for a real precision rifle!
Hard to believe any subscribers would dislike Mr. Hickoks videos.
