Shooting to 4700 Yards With "The Fourteen Nine" & WTC Flat Line Bullets
Jon O'Neill, owner of 50 West Armory, has been dreaming of pushing the boundaries of long-range should-fired rifles for several years. In fact, he's tried to partner with several manufactures and spent a huge pile of money trying to make that dream a reality ... but for almost a decade he ran into issue after issue. But when he teamed up with Josh Kunz, the engineer who designed the new WTC Flat Line bullets, Jon finally started getting some traction. This month Jon and Josh went out to collect some velocity data at 2300 yards for a new 14.9mm cartridge and bullet they've been working on. They not only shot it to that distance, but they stretched it out to 4700 yards!!!

This is an explanation of the test that I ran to see how well different muzzle brakes helped you stay on target. I used a bright Viridian laser attached to my Spuhr Ideal Scope Mount, and a target at 25 yards with a 1" grid target on it. Then I filmed it with using an video filmed at 120 frames per second, and analyzed the results on my computer.

    The thing is not a bench rest but it does significantly help steady the rifle when hunting. I use the field pod and the death grip. Have killed many deer and coyote over 300+ yards. I am going to get the XSR and modify it it fit a lighter more portable tripod.

    I wish all action reviews were this detailed. Almost all just give a blanket "700....." or similar comment. It's so unusual to see close ups of the little details that can be shown, which is so much better than commentary. Karagias has been in some videos but he gets hard to follow and doesn't always show the details, i will say he has a great breakdown if the Archimedes bolt though. Still I wish for more reviews even in standard ruffles that showed more details like you just did.

    I love this scope and its locking turrets for hunting as well as prs. Also the simplest way to slip scales that i have owned so far. Very hard to choose between this scope and my vortex razor gen 2 7c for upcoming match. I hate dealing with set secrets and I love the robust turret design of the xrs. The reticle and parallax adjustments leave something to be desired.

    CAl, I just bought a 6.5 CM Browning X-Bolt Pro (CF stock) and am getting this scope, FFP, mil/mil, illuminated scope, number indexed reticle. I need a small but high quality scope for long range hunting here in Nevada. This scope seems perfect. Getting a "gently used" one from a guy in Montana. The Tract Toric was very attractive with Schott glass and many good features for a lot less money but weighed TEN more ounces! That ruins the advantage of my 6 lb. 1 oz. X-Bolt Pro mountain rifle. Still shooting my 6.5 CM Ruger Precision Rifle W/Bushnell ERS 3.5 - 21 x 50 (H59 reticle) scope. Love the accuracy.

    I think the Browning X-Bolt Pro carbon fiber stock may be the stiffest HUNTING rifle CF stock made. It is 360 degree wrapped CF on a compressed foam core and vacuum is applied to remove excess epoxy. I'd welcome a "bare stock" test between various CF Hunting rifle stocks. I say hunting stock B/C target stocks will be larger and inherently stiffer due to the increased size. We want to compare apples-to-apples in a test like this. In such a test a deflection gauge is the instrument of measurement. It can measure fore arm up/down deflection and side-to-side deflection.Also a longitudinal twisting (torque) test of the entire stock length may be of interest as well. Since carbon fiber stocks are made for utmost lightness we can also say that a measurement of "deflection v.s. weight" be applied. i.e. a lighter stock may have more deflection than a heavier stock and a ratio formula of weight-to-deflection should be listed. No? Eric B.

    Always puzzled me why the Remington bolt action was so popular since it has the weakest extractor in history ! Yes, very aware of their claimed 3 rings of steel strength but that is overhyped BS, imo. Always lover the big Mauser extractor best and believe Mausingfield will prove to be an awesome action that's far superior to the Remington and most others. Sure, it's a lot more money but worth it if you want the best !

    • @deeremeyer1749
      @deeremeyer1749 6 років тому

      Claw extractors and "controlled round feed" are also "overhyped" and have issues of their own. But if you like them you shouldn't need a "Remington 700 clone" action "modified" with a claw extractor. Get a pre-'64 Winchester Model 70. And by the way, the EXTRACTOR has nothing to do with the "3 rings of steel" BESIDES being PART of ONE of the rings. And using a claw extractor in a Remington 700 "clone" maintains the "3 rings of steel". The three rings of steel are the bolt head, receiver and barrel. Sticking a bigger extractor IN the bolt head actually "weakens" the three rings of steel. There. Now you can go spam 700 "clone" videos with real knowledge. And if you don't know what "controlled round feed" is, you have no clue why the "claw extractor" is supposedly "superior".
