how do you get that military grade rifle shooting a thousand yards over a box with a rag on top,and adjust for the wind??????????????

[mag30th]

@corydmaley Three reasons, 1) the 1903 Springfield has always been one of the finest, and most accurate military rifle ever manufactured, 2) I’m using my own hand loaded match ammunition, and 3) I am the one shooting it.

Babe Ruth said if you can do it then it aint bragging. I’ve been shooting high-powered rifles now for over 30 years; it is one of the few things I’m very good at

[zagstrukk]

Are those tracers?

[mag30th]

@zagstrukk Its just the way the light hits the bullet, I didnt realise how clear it was until I came home and reviewed the recording, it looked neat, I wish they all did that... :-)

@zagstrukk using tracers at that gun range would be dumb unless you want to pay the govt. to put the fire out

[mag30th]

@69fastbacklover They were not tracers, it was just the angle the light was siriking the field at that time of morning, 20 minutes later, they were not noticable whatsoever. Besides, US tracers are yellow, not white.

3:45 looks like you`re shooting up in the sky until you realize it`s a tree not a cloud.

As always I enjoy your video's, please keep them coming !

@mag30th i know i was replying to another asking if they where tracers 

[kjsh987]

the rifles of the time of ww1 were classics.specially the one who use the bolt action.

[nzigen31]

I want to try that with a mauser G98. Could be nice!

@viktorgorchev Ook hier in België kunnen we daar alleen maar van dromen,...

Wish we had a range like that here in the Netherlands. I'm a high-power rifle shooter, but the only ranges nearby are a 100 meters. We have a 300 meter range across the country (like 5 hour drive), and we used to have a 1200 meter military range that was open to civillian shooters, but they closed that down for some reason.
