Joe is one of those guys that knows a little bit about everything. if you’re not an expert, he can give you reasonably good information but if that’s your obsession, he’s going to say things that aren’t 100% correct for sure. But I think for the most part, he gets it right enough to be incredible. In this case he said enough accurate things to not look like an idiot on the subject.
You are right, but here Joe is down playing his knowledge on the subject to connect with the mass sheeple that are ignorant to the topic. It's a wise business strategy to make the most money from the majority of the audience. Joe hunted with MeatEater and used to be an avid hunter. (Could be still, don't know) So, he is well aware of marksmanship fundamentals.
He votes for anti gun politicians, he is a clown.
I think Joe has a a fudd and doesn’t actually do a lot just has a lot more f friends and makes his opinions based on them
Or nothing about anything
Jack of all trades, master of none.
You and joe sitting talking shooting would make a great podcast !
Internet make it happen
For me this is why Carlos Hathcock was one of the best ever . No wind indicator, no ballistics calculator , no adjustable turrets or mill dot gradicles , no rangefinder and shooting basically a hunting rifle with a wooden stock.
Imagine Hathcock showing up to an PRS match with nothing but a Model 70 in .300 mag and a fixed power optic and putting all the techno weenies to shame. 😂
@@j.till_z that would be awesome! But in war if your an inch off, the guy is still dead. In competition, if your an inch off, your in last place.
Hathcock had custom built rifles made by Jim Land who commanded a special unit of Armorers.
And an absolute robot of a human being. His auto/biography is insane!
Most military guys are shooting Remington 700’s which is an out date bolt action hunting rifle with tactical upgrades.
This guy is the real deal. I did long range tactical shooting comps-best shot was 950 yard cold bore hit on unknown size and distance target (Mammoth Sniper Challenge, KY aroundd 2008). I milled it to get distance by assuming the circle plate was 10 inches. This was correct. Dream shot.
Mine was the top of the skull of a thieving destructive squirrel peaking over a branch when I was about 8 years old with a single shot Savage .22 ancient but accurate rifle. Range? dunno. Long way for my young brain but I knew the rifle & ammo. Hit it, earned $5 from my grandfather in the mid-60s. Dream shots indeed =)
Jamie pull up that video of the bear shooting 2000 yards
😂😂😂
Heck , I would be impressed to see a bear shoot 10 yards. Js
😂😂😂😂😂
How about the one where the youtube commenter desperate for likes comes up with his own original joke? That one would be much better. 🤡.
No, no bears with guns, bad boy!@@markmtbrider
I zero my .270 Weatherby Mag at 300 yards; it’s a bit high at 150.
Pete, you are the man when it comes to understanding long-range technical detail on how these shots are performed and also the way you come across to the average person. Keep up the good work hoorah from the UK
Great video and a perfect breakdown of Rogan's podcast. Folks I started following Piet for 2 years now, with ZERO regrets. His content is both informative and entertaining. Hell if not for Piet, I never would have looked at a 6.5 Creed. I am now running a Tikka T3X with a Vortex 3x15. Hogs, dogs, and deer don't stand a chance. My full setup was around 2k (ish, but don't tell the wife) and it's smooth as the butter I baste the hogs in. Piet you're awesome, Rock on Man 🤘😎
Thanks for sharing!
3x15 is a very useful magnification range for hunting. When I hunt with my dad we hunt on horseback so weight is no issue, then I bring a win model 70 featherweight in 280AI with a leupold 2x7 and a custom win model 70 in 280AI with a 26” barrel and large comp and Leupold 4x20 for long range.
💯
Are you using Tikka stock or aftermarket?? Thx
@@MTDub99 just the standard stock, polymer tan stock...factor muzzle break
16:25 that baboon shot will always be a highlight shot
Regarding breath hold. As a long-range shooter and a freediver breath holding technique from freediving, help drop your heart rate quickly and keep calm and focus after sprints. This, in turn, gives plus timing on target for that extra steadiness and fine tune hold.
THANK YOU for not advocating long range hunting. Longe range shooting is super fun. Long range hunting is by no means ethical. Way too many factors involved that could cause a gutshot. Have some respect for the animal and learn to stalk. Refreshing to see a long range channel with some ethics
That little /puff/ at 4:49 when he closed the bolt was just 👌
In the past, Utah has sometimes used a firing squad for the death penalty, they have maybe 4-5 shooters, only one has a blank in his gun. This for a psychological escape, each shooter can rationalize that perhaps theirs had the blank shell.
Awesome video, I'm glad I came across your channel. I will be watching a lot of your videos
This is not the MDT carbon stock review I was expecting from you this week
Mine didnt show up in time, soon!
Alabama Arsenal just did one.
why would you want someone else's opinion?
Awesome video, but on the topic of wind, something that also has to be factored is Spin drift, because if you have a 1:11 twist, that bullet will travel 11 inches @ 1000yds in the direction of the twist.
Spin drift varies significantly from bullet to bullet.
However a good baseline taking into acount of the cumulative effect of spin drift and Coriolis effect ( Yes they stack) will cause your impact to be ½ MOA to the right at 600 yards and almost a full MOA to the right at 1000 yards.
@jrthmc29 Don't know where you got your data from, not accurate at all. I was a Sniper Instructor 1/2 MOA on what size target, MOA is linear. Meaning the size of the target and distance.
On a 20×40 target ( mansize torso) at 600 yards holding left edge to account for SD was common.
@bmos212 Your kidding right?
MOA is not simply a linear measurement and only used in terms of elevation(Bullet drop).
In fact Minute of angle (MOA) is a unit of angular measurement that is equal to 1/60th of a degree. It is used in shooting to measure the accuracy of a rifle by distributing bullet hits on a target both horizontal as well as vertical.
I assume you are calling the horizontal MOA something akin to windage or drift and that's fine and all but the measurement is minute of angle.
"Minute of angle or spin drift" refers to the amount of horizontal deviation a bullet experiences due to its spin (gyroscopic forces), measured in "minutes of angle" which is a unit used to describe shooting accuracy, where 1 minute of angle roughly equals 1 inch of deviation at 100 yards; essentially, it's how much a bullet will drift sideways over a long distance because of its spin, expressed in the small angular measurement of a minute of angle.
If you were a Sniper Instructor as you said then you have my respect and Thank you for your service. I would add however if you were what you say you were I think you would know this information.
Take care,
God bless
@jrthmc29 Brah, you just cut and pasted a bunch of long range shooting terminology. SPIN DRIFT IS THE GYROSCOPIC HORIZONTAL DEVIATION of a bullet from its intended trajectory. MOA is linear meaning 1 MOA at 100yds in 1in roughly, 1 MOA at 200 yards is 2 in, 1 MOA at 300 yards is 3 inches and so one. I know everything you regurgitated.
@bmos212 so which is it Brah? Either my information is .."not accurate at all" as you said l, or I cut and paste from long range shooting terminology.
BTW of course I pasted 80% of that information. Why would I waste the time
Typing out all the info for you when it's clear you refuse to listen to anyone other than yourself seeing as you know everything about shooting already.
Girl,
Bye!
This probably one of my favorite informative shooting channels, and UR😂 that guy cool too😂
While windage was brought up, no one mentioned that in long range shooting the wind speed and direction at the muzzle can change dramatically and more than once before reaching the target. I shoot out to 1000 yrds fairly regularly and have seen wind speeds vary by 5-8 mph and direction vary 25 degrees or more and I’ve seen it take place two or three times during a single shot. Shooting across a canyon or some other terrain where wind is funneled would only magnify it.
He did kind of talk about that. He mentioned it when he said that knowing what the speed and direction is where you are, when you pull the trigger, is basically the best you can ask for.
@@fortheloveofking Sometimes you can see wind speed/direction on the way to the target, sometimes at the target (eg grass stems). Spin drift and the Coriolis effect for longer shots. I think altitude would also be in the calculations (denser air = more friction = more drag).
I love your channel Piet but didn't you hunt this winter? Your hunting videos is always great
Yup we uploaded a ton a hunting content this year. Another Impala hunt soon!
@@IMPACTSHOOTING Dankie Piet. Ek sien ek het almal gekyk. Moet se daai bobejaan skoot was iets anders so jy mag maar nog sulke videos op sit. Groete uit Hopetown
Hey about the holding the breath. I have no idea where I read this. But it was when I was a kid, so maybe it's old technique.
But I'm sure it said like when you breath in. You apply first pressure to trigger and breath half way out. And pull trigger
(It's genuinely possible I invented this in my head and think it's a memory. Like I had a dream about hair only growing at night. Then thought that was real haha.)
I also remember reading if you turn the spotting scope slightly out of focus you can see vapour trail of bullets. A quarter turn out of focus is stuck in my brain for some reason.
I’m sure most everyone watching this knows, but for those new to the sport, the Coriolis effect will affect bullet impacts at long distances - 1,000 yards or more. Because the Earth spins, the target’s position in space changes during the flight time of the bullet. Could be higher, lower, left, or right depending on where you are on Earth and the direction of the shot. It is different than gyroscopic effect or spin drift of the bullet caused by the barrel’s rifling. Definitely an interesting and challenging sport.
Once you get beyond a mile it’s like lobbing artillery. The fact that people are getting precise hits beyond 2 miles is insane. To have a projectile that small in flight for that long and having to account for so many variables. I’d love to get into real long range shooting but I simply don’t have the time or budget 😂
They are not though. It usually takes them like 25 shots to hit a 3.5x3.5 ft target. Unless they are usually a 408 cheytac or equivalent it a crapshoot. Even 338 lapua tops out to get near 50% hit rate by 1500 meters and thats IF you call wind correct with 1 kph AND get all the other ballistics perfectly.
These internet guys rarely show you the 24 misses before they get that hit at a mile plus
@@groundcontrol5365 there’s plenty of accounts of snipers making shots at ridiculous distances thought to be impossible. A lot of it goes into preparation. Getting good dope goes a long ways. They didn’t take 25 shots at the target… The Canadian JTF set a record for the longest kill and got it within a few shots. So it can definitely be done with precision. At that distance your group is going to be pretty big even with the best cartridge but it’s obviously doable beyond the flat range. If you can hit a man size target beyond 2 miles, I’d call that precision.
@@xi-deadshot-ix5838 No there aren't actually. Of all the hundreds of thousands of shots snipers have taken at a mile plus in the military you only have a few confirmed kills at those distances. They missed the other 99.99% of the time so no one heard about it because people who are full of it never tell you about all their failures.
Its rare as fuk to get a first round hit at those distances.
shout out to my Son Kierden Rani, We love watching your channel. thanks for sharing, very educational as always!
Sitting here loading this season's hunting rounds when this video suggestion come up. Although I don't have to, I take the time to be extremely accurate and consistent in producing my ammunition thanks to this channel. It's somewhat therapeutic to do so. Never settle for 'good enough'!
Well done!
Dummy rounds and blanks are definitely not the same. Dummy rounds are completely inert. They’re used for dry firing practice. Blanks have powder but no bullet.
This was so fun and informative. Thanks, Pitr!
I hope Rogan has this guy on. That would be an AWESOME conversation.
The last time I looked, the top 20 furthest confirmed sniper shots started in the 1200’s and most were under 1700. My take away is that snipers actually very rarely shoot as far a s Hollywood would have us believe. The confirmed mile+ snipe shots can be counted on one hand, and are legendary for the reasons Pete discussed in this video.
Long range air guns 100-300yds. It is also a big challenge, with lots of data to calculate and lots of fun.
I hope you do the vortex nation podcats or something with steve rinella !
Great video. I'm actually a bit surprised Joe was that accurate.
I mean he hunts. He's shot rifles at a decent range. He's not a complete amateur about it.
He would probably love having you on his show. Hit him up next time you're in the states.
They never only had one firing squad member with ammo. They’d have one WITHOUT ammo so everyone can reasonably assume they might not have killed the guy.
Bro, if you have no ammo, the gun wouldn't go off
I was totally expecting click bait, but this was kinda cool. A lightning round, crash course in long range shooting based around a joe rogan episode. Sweet!
In the movie Shooter there is an assassination scene where someone says it takes 6 seconds for the bullet to travel a mile. Most big sniper rounds are moving at around 3000 feet per second. I did a little basic math and it turns out that the 50 BMG which is actually the slower of the military sniper rounds clocks in at 2800 FPS. A mile is 5280 feet. Simple division tells us that this slower round will travel a mile in just about 1.8 seconds. Less than a third the time the movie claimed. But yes, I know, it is a movie. Still I prefer when the technical details in films are accurate.
Also keep in mind the bullet is slowing significantly over the distance
The best advice for long range shooting is glossed over in this.
With shooting squads, ALL BUT ONE had live rounds. Only one was a blank. That gave the emotional out for all the shooters.
“People only know what they know”😉
I saw some long range shooters attempting a 4 mile shot. To my amazement one of the guys finally made the shot! There’s also a channel called “Texas Plinking. Sometimes they compete at one mile.
I shoot precision 3P target rifle (the same discipline you see in the olympics) and we teach that you fire when your lungs are empty because it's the most consistent position. But we also teach you have about 3 seconds in that state to fire the shot before it starts to affect you. So if you haven't fired the shot in 3 seconds, stop, breathe and try again.
This guy reached Prestige 10 and unlocked all camos and weapons in real life 😂😂 cool background
if we're nitpicking, dummies are inert and blanks are a powder charge crimped without a round
Absolutely brilliant video. I'm a new fan of yours!
It’s exactly why guys look @ me funny when I say “I hunt whitetail deer w/a .22 Hornet.” Their jaw drops & they usually say “I’ve lost too many deer, you?” 1-in 28yrs (150yds or less)
I'm never going to shoot 2mi but i did just start reloading. Last weekend i did a ladder test and stacked two groups on top of each other in 0.67".
I have to say i was impressed with myself for my first try
don't do what i did and buy every bullet known to man , just pick a good hunting/match bullet and find something that works first before you go nuts lol
Fun!!!
The firing squad thing is actually the other way around, as in, five rifles, 4 bullets, one blank.
Sometimes I check the wind speed with my meter. It's critical and people depend on it.
When your AC isn't working right you might have a guy like he check your airflow velocity with one of those. Make sure that's good. Crossover tool. :)
The worst things I see movies do is have guys run at their target while having a gún in their hands.
My Dad participated in firing squads in WW2 for the German army, which was always for one of their own that committed a capital crime like rape. His experience is that only one member of the squad got the blank and it was loaded by the officer with eyes front in a way that the squad member with the blank would not know until they pulled the trigger. As any shooter knows, the 8x57 K98 rifle has a fairly ferocious recoil.
I don't know about the German army, but most other armies firing squads all have live rounds, A friend of my father was on a firing squad in WW2 they all were given live rounds
and told to aim centre mass for a humane death they did not want anyone wounded and have shoot them again.
Prison guards don’t shoot enough to have that familiarity with blanks vs life rounds… as a matter of their professional training. Maybe they train on their own, but not likely.
Rogan is good at unintentional comedy. Firing squads are usually all live ammo with one guy shooting blanks. In many cases globally it's several dudes with AKs mowing a guy down. Check the Ceucesco(?) footage, think anybody had blanks?
He was talking about civil war era with muskets.
@@donniejoy4469 And even during that time frame, it was N E V E R One live round and any number of blank rounds, Since the First firing squad sentence, it has ALWAYS been 1blank, the rest are live.
I also admire Joe Rogan. I will differ with him on one thing, though.
I have read the books of three different snipers. One was in the Rangers 1/75 and the other was in the Rangers 3/75. And one was a Marine Scout Sniper.
As well as an interview with a Navy SEAL sniper (retired.)
Most times, the great distances like a 1 mile or more, is in training. Many military snipers continue training between active combat duty deployments. However, in theater, most engagements are less than 600 yards, actually, 90 percent less than 300 yards.
One of those snipers, shooting a .300 Win Mag, could dial elevation out to 500 yards and then hold left or right edge of target zone into the wind and make a hit.
Most importantly Joe was saying that they snipers were targeting the head shot at 1,000 yards or more. And that is just not accurate., Instruction and training is to aim for center mass of an IPSC target.
He is just a comedian
@@Rubeless agreed, a talking head.
@@Rubeless So, we don't hold him accountable for mistakes? Or have I interrupted your worship and rituals before the little Rogan statue in your mom's basement?
Well you can dial for wind….
he's full of sht!
It was probably a simplification, but interestingly enough it's not the wind "pushing" the bullet to the side, as Ryan Litz tried to explain. It's the bullet not flying perfectly straight any more, naturally pointing more and more against the wind as it flies, which adds the horizontal part to the drag vector as it's not only pulling the bullet straight back, but a little bit in the wind direction 🤯
Spin drift
@@tombryant4518 that's something else, this is caused by the bullet tip pointing a little bit to the side towards the wind rather than the spinning motion.
no
@@investigativeoutcomes9343 no, it has nothing to do with spin, sorry 😁
You lost me at they.
Fascinating. You sort of glossed over (not a criticism) the gravity component. Are long range shooting courses generally setup one direction or the other? Meaning, s shooter firing downrange at a target from west to east? What might be the correction required shooting south to north at 1 mile? I am not a shooter, but love what you do, and have heard the term MoA (I've read about ~1.05 inches per 300 feet), but that is about angles, where I imagine correcting for earth rotation the time of flight is the critical variable. Love your channel.
at 9:30 you said they were using a "Raptar" but that is NOT a Wilcox Raptar... it is an Envision MARS.
My dad shot a deer at a quarter mile, with a 30-30. He admitted it was a pretty lucky shot, because that round isn’t supposed to be used for long range shooting.
Sorry Joe, but the firing squad story is off a bit. It goes like this: The firing squad were each given a loaded rifle. The OIC tells them that one of the rifles has a blank round loaded. They were not allowed to work the action and verify. Then they shot the guy and walked away, each knowing that they may have had a blank round. Whether or not there was a blank round in any of the rifles is debatable, soldiers would not have known what a blank round felt like. Anyway, I think some variation of this story probably happened at some point, enough to turn it in to a urban myth that guys can gab about.
Can you talk about the builds behind you? They look great!
You have a sub i am a amateur long range shooter grew up shooting 2 rounds a year the shot you made sure it was still zerod and the kill. Got into airguns recently where i can shoot alot in my land, i have seen an increase in my accuracy just by the annoying of time behind a similar platform
Good video. You have a nice presentation and attitude.
Great video! It’s a fascinating sport, and your positive influence on the community is infectious!
On my last trip to SA I had 9 perfect shots and 1 where a Blesbuck turned from broadside to quartering to as I was pulling the trigger. It happens and at 450yds it leads to a less than perfect impact.
Firing squad.. only one person had the “blanks” the other 4/6 had live ammo..
But as he said you 'feel' that. And i would say you hear it as well. But maybe not if 5 or 6 other people shooting next to you...
Especially since a blank will NOT have the recoil of a live round.
There not blanks, they used wax slugs, which feel extremely similar to live rounds
@@Ghost2ndamendment maybe to an untrained shooter.
Great video mate, thank you!
How much further can you shoot if the winds going the same way as the bullet? Limiting drag etc
Most of us have scopes that cost more than the rifle, I get the feeling not so much in that room.
Pete I really think you are one of the masters in this game .Maybe get on a podcast with Joe and bring him up to speed .
Have a missed the video when you invited Army Ranger Sniper Nick Irving "The Reaper" to a shooting contest? 🤣
Who is anti trump and lied in his book. Skip
@@Rubelesshe is not anti Trump, he is anti government, and what did he lie about in his book?He is a national hero confirmed. Show a little respect.
@@roadkang-cartwright7390 dude can barley zero off a few rounds he’s shown that multiple times. Most competitive shooters I know are better then that
@@zackbogart2604 competitive shooters do this on a regular basis with the most modern and up to date shooting systems. It is a skill you must keep up like any other profession. I have never shot under 38/40 in qualifying in the Infantry, I doubt I could do that now. This man is a confirmed successful sniper. I know how confirmed shootings get recorded , he would not be able to lie about that. Just giving insight , guess I am biased being infantry and a designated marksman ( not a sniper) . I don’t care how he shoots now, but he did his job when enlisted.
Really good video Piet!
You got me brother, I’m subscribed. Thank you for being true. Nice to see someone actually teaching accurately. BTW I love Joe Rogan too! Great content.
As they say "The second shot is more accurate than the first."
the blank round was rarely used, and if it was it was only one blank
Actually only one rifle has a blank round in a firing squad. This was meant to protect by providing reasonable doubt in case they face a court room.
I thought it was to prevent any sort of emotional distress?
Actually all rifles had blanks, and the target died of a heart attack.
Im no sniper, lol but I get into shooting and hunting. Ive hunted all my life and also grew up shooting bows on and off as well but that's too much of a tangent 😄. But like 4 years ago I decided to buy a cheap break barrel air rifle to occupy myself with and even though I already knew how to shoot real guns I ended up having to practice and reeducate myself in a few ways that I think were really helpful. Besides the therapeutic aspect of it all it was like.. stimulating (for lack of a better word😆) and it put the passion back into me to start shooting my rimfire and center-fires a lot more. With the break barrels your shooting 8grain pellet 15-60 yrds with a garbage trigger and and weird kick from the piston that forces you to use a proper balanced technique to be able to hit anything. It's not even like a pcp or rimfire at all but its so bad that it forces you appreciate the little things.
I guess what I initially was thinking to comment is..
.. making these long ass shots can be a high skill demanding and difficult thing... but not always. Cuz like.. with perfect weather and environment conditions..a already set up rifle.. making that 1000yrd shot can be as simple as making a common sense shot. It's just the nature of a predialed, perfected system in a non chaotic environment. But that's no fun and I realize that that's just an idealized frame of reference. Idk...i think about weird things.
TBH I could never afford to go long range shooting with anything other than a 223. But I enjoy playing with my 22lr and trying different ammos at different distances up to 200yrds. Im just a broke ass county boy with lots of opinions but no options haha
I built my long range 308 out of a savage axis for just under $1000. Thats including the original cost of rifle and the optic and custom barrel etc. Yeah it's $2 a bullet for boat tail ammo but when I'm shooting long range I usually only bring a box or 2 of ammo and that lasts me a few hours. I was making hits at 800 yards with a strong wind last time. I'll be pushing out to 1000 yards next time. It's not easy but you can put together a long range build for cheap if you do all the research and work yourself.
@@1badombre82 $1000 in SA rand is R17800, if you only earn R9000 - R15000 it is a lot of money for a rifle. And then ammunition is R15/bullet. It becomes a very expressive sport.
@@kobusdup7910 R9000-R15000 a year? And I think you meant R1780 not R17800. $ 0.57= R 1
Firing squads are the other way around everyone has live rounds except one person.
No. The firing squad had one person with a blank round. So no one of them knew if they had fired a live round.
If they had only one live round in the group.... If it was an inaccurate shot, then what? reload the group? Let the person suffer more? No.
Aerodynamic jump can be explained using the Magnus effect
Sorry to sound lecturing you, but the theory with the firing squad is not that they do not know after, but to be able to shot in the first place. If you have a chance that you know maybe you are not the one who make the kill make it easier to do the shot in the first place. It give hope they can escape from the responsibility or the guilt.
When you talk about animals moving: last year I went for a deer hunt in Nova Scotia, I had a doe at 40 yards with the crosshairs on her right shoulder, she was super nervous, as I committed to pulling the trigger she turned and I wound up grazing her left shoulder(literally took off hair and the equivalent of a skin tag). How do I know? She showed up on trail cam two days later, with the patch of hair clearly missing. It was a long 20 hour drive home.
Search Tim Wells, he will blow your mind. Some people just have a gift when it comes to hunting. Normies who spend more time behind a screen like myself cannot begin to imagine how well someone like that can anticipate an animal's movement/behavior, but clearly the are guys like that.
Sure, Joe Rogan has hunted a lot, but he's a typical modern hunter who practices on a still standing target and then goes out to shoot a still standing animal. He is a bloody good shot and a strong guy at that, but Tim Wells is to hunting what Garry Kasparov is to chess, simply on a different level.
Firing squads had more than one person with live ammo because one dude could miss. That’s a big mistake people make about firing squads.
And I bet there were many firing squads in history that all the men had live ammo, but in US I know more than one did to ensure no hiccups.
I looked into that many years ago, I wouldn’t even trust anything found online anymore at this point.
u toob leader of misinformation.
God bless you, Brother ✌🏻
Any veteran will tell you, when you get into a contact keep breathing,.. it's not a given.
Joe is pretty knowledgeable. Like the content
I'll take Matthew Quigley with his Sharp's rifle over all this fancy shooting.
No, one person had blanks in a firing squad. You know how many people would not have died with just one shooter.
with teh firing squads, one person WOULDN'T have live ammo. they got it backwards. and even that was kind of a myth mostly.
Thx for a great informative podcast.
I really don't like the term, but Joe Rogan is the King of Mansplaining.
I also love Joe Rogan on this stuff he has great knowledge but also does his homework before talking about a subject, love that about him you can always trust what he is talking about.
What's a good out of the box bolt action precision rifle. I'm looking for reliably and accuracy.
Hard to beat a savage
remington 40x tactical in .338
I first heard the “some had blanks” in a firing squad from my father decades ago, but even at that young age it was obvious to me that an experienced shooter (who should have been chosen for the squad in the first place) would know if he’d had a live round. And as others have pointed out, the claim was that only one member had a blank, not only one of five members had a live round. If some of the gruesome stories were true about the poor marksmanship of firing squads in some incidences, they certainly wouldn’t have wanted to leave the job up to one guy.
The other thing that never gets discussed is how would the one gun get loaded with a blank cartridge without the shooter knowing it. It’s conceivable, I suppose, but someone would have to know who had what rounds. I’m reminded of a ridiculous tale by a former Navy SEAL who claimed he went on a very realistic training exercise thinking it was a real mission despite their weapons supposedly being loaded with some sort of marking rounds rather than real ammunition, and which they didn’t discover until the end of the exercise.
Loved the episode. New subscriber
Joe is amazing and he got us a new sub also 🇦🇺🙏
Hay Piet. Love your videos.
What is the best way to get into PRS matches in SA ?
Look up tbe automated firing quad . That even left the possible " wasnt me" option. I femember reading something about it.
Actually I believe I heard it backwards. All but one had had live rounds. The last was a blank. Plausible deniability thinking you were the blank.
the USMC can teach any knucklehead how to hit target from 500 yards away with no scope... and they do that in just a few weeks..very impressive I think so anyway
What is your opinion on dry firing?
There is no opinion. It must be done.
I’ve hit a mile with my 6.5CM. It’s a cool feeling. Don’t know why, 1760 is just a random number…but, it was cool for a normie enthusiast.
It is amazing how much of movie shoot outs people believe. John Wick would survive about 5 secs in any of his shoot outs if it was reality instead of a movie.
