For those that are concerned about it, I hear it's pretty affordable to have those backdoored electronic safe locks replaced with a traditional mechanical combination lock. Doesn't make what they did right... I'm just saying you can replace the lock without ditching a perfectly good safe.
And then the Feds take a demo saw to your safe. I'm just not sure what people think this will accomplish. I mean these are the people who shoot mothers holding babies. They will get into your safe. And if they can do it while doing maximum damage to your home?? Well they'll get into your safe while rocking a chubby.
@@Saltpork305 It's time for a new safe... The company gave them permission to access HIS property. It does not matter that the lock mechanism is different. They didn't need a court order to open it if they had permission, meaning that by any means necessary they will pry it open anyways. You need a safe that does not grant them this permission over your property. Your property is still your property! Liberty safe does not believe this statement to be true.
I've watched hundreds of Long Range Shooting Videos and this is the best NOOB video i've seen. Off the couch you could go out and get the gist of what to do for the ELR day. You guys are definitely entertaining.
your sight height info entered should be more like 2.75-3 inches sight height is centerline of your optic to the centerline of the bore. Your larue mount height is only measuring from the centerline of the optic to the top of your rail.
I wouldn’t recommend telling people to select their bullets off of the grain weight. You can have a wide range of BC values at the same grain weight. If they enter in a BC value that is significantly different from what they are shooting it will cause some issues the farther you stretch it out. You’re better off using the BC value on the box, the app even recommends doing that if you don’t see your bullet.
I consider myself very versed in the world of firearms and tactics but never took time to ask how to do this, realistically pride is to blame. Thank you, sincerely. I appreciate all you all do. I am actaully moving to Tennessee at the beginning of the year and you all have heavily influenced my choice my land purchase to be prepared for either the inevitable or probable future.
Rangefinder and a decent drone (DJI) are super handy for solo work at distance. Those drones can go miles out, so easily cover your needs for live view of target. Very easy to see where your hits are by simply loitering the drone near the target and watching or recording. Having a buddy spotter is even easier.
With the Hornady app you can do a custom load and add your own bc and gr weight. It is far more accurate as Hornady actually gives a massive bump in balistics to their projectiles. If you are doubting it just try it. Pick one of their projectiles and load the same data in for velocity, altitude, temp, etc. Then do a custom load with the same stuff and the same weight and bc as the Hornady projectile you just used.
Just came across your channel recently, and now subbed for sure. Can’t get enough of y’all’s content. This video was excellent on explaining dope and how to translate that to your optic/range session. Keep up the awesome videos!
Thanks! I’ll have to watch this a couple of times to really get it. I built a precision AR10 using a Krieger 20” barrel, shoots .65 MOA pretty constantly with reloads. This project has been a huge learning experience for me.
Too bad on the Liberty Safe in the background . I am now saying get ride of it or destroy it but I would cover up their logo with all those firearm company stickers we all have . Don't advertise for them .
I remember my first 1000 yard match, an NRA governed Long Range Tournament. I got to the firing line with no clue to the sight adjustment needed to hit the target. I shot so many sight in shots from my iron sight M14 that mirage off my barrel made the target disappear. It was an experience that proved I knew nothing about good shooting. Still I stuck with it and began using a ballistics app to understand zeroing to distance needs. Then it was development of marksmanship that became most important, leading me to earn the American High Power Rifleman in Long-Range Award, a US Distinguished Rifleman Badge, and a CMP-USAMU Military Rifle Instructor certification to assist the USAMU deliver Squad Designated Marksman Training. At any rate, I think the author of this video delivers proper instruction for an understanding of a no-wind zero at a known target distance. Learn ranging, and wind/weather effects and you will be set if you go into it having some basic marksmanship training. The best training out there is the USAMUs Small Arms Firing School. It’s a three day event hosted by the CMP annually in late July at Camp Perry, Ohio. The event is directed by champion military shooters who coach individual students at their firing points. It’s great instruction to get shooters off to a good start with it all.
Thanks for doing this video. I found the video interesting, highly informative, and useful. I do want to ask where you got the information for the statement you made that "more American dollars were printed in the last two years than it had ever been printed in the history of time." If true, the statement does seem to answer the question about who caused inflation. I went and checked the data from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and that statement doesn't seem to be correct. I checked each denomination. I checked yearly and total production. Unfortunately, I can't find any true instance to support the "ever in time," claim, or for any two years, nor for a single year. There actually seem to be a number of years in the last 30 years where more dollars have been printed.
Great video. I printed out a dope card with data for m193 & m855 and taped it to my buttstock for reference. I don't shoot long-range very often. You can also use this data to decide what your optimal zero distance should be. I can shoot 0-300 yards without using holds and know my bullet will be within a 6" circle. Very handy.
I've teased you kids so much I feel the need to shame myself. Yesterday I took a new build to the range and results were truly demoralizing. I shuffled home all head hung and defeated. And then I discovered I had forgotten to torque my scope rings...

Flat wrong on scope height. Your mount is 1.5" FROM THE RAIL, not from your BORE. You need the height over BORE. Difference between scope height and bore height will depend on the rifle.
A few things. Yes, Ive replaced the digital locks on my liberty safes. Did so before their mess. I also called them to voice my displeasure. Bigger comment was my happiness hearing an altas shrugged reference! Well done, men. If there is an author ever better equipped to predict our current society, Rand is the one.

Yeah, everyone that bought them before the scandal should have gotten rid of them immediately right? I bet you don’t own anything that’s even close to the value of the safe let alone worth being stored in one. You’re a bozo 🤡
@dirty-civilian I thought you were trolling! 😂 let me just throw out this expensive safe! What I did when Carhartt mandated the "sheeps milk jab" for their employees I cut the tags off the coats.
11:04 your sight height is wrong. its sight height above bore not optic mount height you need to add the height of bore centerline to top pf receiver height too. you need to add 1.22" for an ar-15 im not certain off hand for what most rem 700 based actions are. its part of why your hits were off at range cause your sight height is wrong
Took me a week to get a good zero. New rifle, new caliber, finding what ammo it likes, then trying to get a zero finding out warden wasn’t a good idea so had to re zero in the heat😅
I like yalls videos and all of the great info you share, but you have some inconsistencies in this video. Fudging your velocity is about as bad as a ball park zero. A ballpark BC is also not good. That really becomes apparent beyond 600 yards. I found out the hard way at a competition lol. Horandy lies about their BC. Applied ballistics is a good source to get 3rd party measured BCs but you have to pay for the info. Find a buddy or someone at the range with a Kestrel ballistic computer and they will likely have the entire AP library on their unit ;) Also, scope/sight height is from center of scope to center of bore; not center of scope to top of receiver. Inside 600 yards the way you set this up will work okay, but you will have to correct those errors to be precise at further distances especially on small targets. 🤙
@@mrs.vasquezz was yours because of the dots on glass when illuminated? One of them also is so bad it washed out all of the numbers in the holds when it was illuminated.
Gravity is a constant and can be accounted for pretty actually as long as you have good data regarding muzzle velocity. Most manufacturers use a 24" test barrel so depending on caliber just subtract 50fps per inch shorter and you should be close enough to get started. Wind is the hard part.
Ryan Cleckner’s Book “Long Range Shooting Handbook” explains this well. Mils is a unit of angular measurement, not length like inches. You can zero your gun/scope at 100 yards and use mils. Most competition shooters are set up that way. Mils are not metric. It can be a little confusing since we are used to inches and centimeters and we normally don’t measure things by angle. .1 mil is .36” at 100 yards.
I get that the chamber was empty but ol boy just holstered his IWB without looking… twice. Best not to make a habit of that, unless you don’t like your manhood. God forbid your shirt getting caught in the trigger.
@@dirty-civilian the modern day Pay-triots bend the knee for the suppressors though. And everything else. Everyone bending knees together. Lol. That's why I'm developing kneepads with springs on them so pay-triots can do rapid knee taps.
Height over bore goes from centerline of barrel to center of optic, not just the mount height.
Yes! I believe the 1.5 inches is from top of Picatinny to center of the rings if not center of your cross bolts to center of your rings.
Yeah, he is probably closer to 2.5 inches than 1.5
Yes, and for those wondering add 1.22" for an ar15.

Good to hear. I don’t have either but long range is on my list before NODs. Good luck!
I’m sure you have your reasons, but not what I would’ve done
@dirty-civilian where did you get the book with the Tremor reticle info?
Damm you guys will be next to grand Thumb. Your content is outstanding.
