Brilliant videos.

I'm going through the same process, but only have access to a 200m range. Please can you explain how a tight group at 100 or 200 can go so wrong at longer range. I just don't understand it .... is it the slight variations in muzzle velocity that are not visible at short range and are at long range?

@zakiwi1

I'm far from an expert on the subject, and don't really understand it myself. At long range there are alot more variables that come into to play, which are hardly even noticable at 100 yards. All the little things matter at long range. I imagine its quite easy to get a good group at short range with UNstable bullets, but you won't notice it untill you push them out further.

My long range load at 100 yards doesn't always print the best group, but I know it works very well 600.

@aklisven

glad you liked them. I have a few more ideas for the coming season of competetive shooting. This series is not yet complete.

@ryandpahl Most people don't respond to quality but rather react to spectacular things. I really appreciate the work you went thru to produce those excellent videos. Quality is far superior to quantity.

Thanks again, thats a real compliment. Im glad people appreciate the work that goes into these.

@ryandpahl oh trust me man, for those of us who are serious about this sport....this is as good as it gets...:)

True, but I find it funny that there are sooo many retarded shooting videos of people who have no clue what they are doing. And they get millions of views. I create a decent quality instructional video and no one seems to want to watch them.

The internet , its a strange thing. I guess my videos are not entertaining enough...

[0122358]

@ryandpahl hey who cares the total...think of how many of the current views that you have helped...

@0122358

Thanks, glad people are receiving them well. The view count is not as high as I'd like to see, considering the amount of work I've poured into them.
