Glad Dallas got to tell his story. What a Canadian hero. The government might have let you down but any Canadian I know would thank you for your service and buy you a beer. ❤
I am involved in long range shooting and rifles as a hobby. I can say 1,000 yards is nuts. I can't even imaging 2.2 miles.... 10 sec flight time is absolutely insane. Not only can your target do so much moving in that time, but you also have to have the trigger steadiness of god.
@@biohazard8295 not the rifle, the trigger itself. Any tension not perfectly straight on the trigger as you pull will move the gun slightly, magnify that out to thousands of meters, 10 seconds of travel time and you could miss by a football field.
@@stevenw2933 ok but maybe the weight of the rifle helps a bit. I am not downplaying their skills, just to me it sounds crazy that one can control a rifle to that level of accuracy by hand, withouth any external.assistance. I shot a pistol for the first time a year ago and it was crazy difficult to have a steady aim and grip to be somewhat accurate at 20/30 yards lol.
@@biohazard8295 I know your not down playing the skill. The training these snipers have to do is insane. To fire that distance, you have to learn how to breathe differently, be so calm, feel your heart beat, math skills, rifles that they use have dual-pods so the only thing they have to really hold steady, other than themselves, is the stock of the gun that is against their shoulder. Hence the reason for keeping yourself steady. Have a good stance if standing, brace yourself. If lying down in the field still keep yourself well balanced and rifle is on a dual-pod and stock is against shoulder. They don't just stand there and hold up the rifle because you won't be able to keep that steady for a 2.2 mile shot.
@@speakerxenocide1979 ok that makes sense, also all of that plus the stress and anxiety of being in a combat zone away from loved ones. These dudes are badass
in JTF the team can do BOTH jobs and BOTH are equally experienced .... none of the american BS of seniority ... who does the work better usually does that job ... if your fast with dope settings your spotting more ... if your hyper accurate youre shooting more ... seniority in JTF only comes in for promotions the rest is ability and only ability
So many people I know that are a part of the Canadian military, and most are not sidewalk commandos, that brag about their achievements in the military! I love Canadian spirit of patriotism, without screaming it out loud all the time! All are a part of a team, and that is awesome! Thanks for the story guys!

However u could replace them with doubles and the public wouldn't think twice Hypothetically....let's say that happened with Joe Biden. Would u trust ur own eyes or would u think the CIA isn't capable of having body doubles that's conspiracy talk....

Meanwhile most people don't even know Canadians hold 3 of the top 6 longest sniper kills, and they just quietly go on with their life.
@@chad1755as for Chris Kyle, there's more to being a good sniper than one lucky shot. Chris was a phenomenal sniper and did so much more than one good shot, he was a pioneer within the American special forces, he saved countless lives, he observed, he used his brain, he was intelligent the list of his achievements goes on. he also came home and did a tonne of charity work to help others who came back with problems, to then be killed by someone he was trying to help. That's why a movie was made, so maybe educate yourself before commenting.
2.2 miles is 3,872 yards. He said one round missed by 1/4 MIL. At that distance, that's 38.84 inches. Typical decent shot at any distance is 1 MOA target. At 2.2 miles, that's 38.72 inches. So that's still bang on. One little gust of wind somewhere down range is enough to throw trajectory off. Pretty nuts.
even heat rise is enough ... and the 1/4 mil on the mcmillan tactical at that range puts it about 28in off ... the mcmillan system used by JTF has much finer resolution than the barrets

As someone who’s full time job has been traveling the world for the past 22 years - I regularly get asked overseas what are the biggest differences between Canadian & American cultures. Despite knowing there are some fairly significant differences, it was always hard to put into a few words. This video kinda sums up how I now answer. The ol’ “Canadians are so nice” I’ve been hearing for decades has been beaten to a pulp & Canadians cringe & roll eyes when they hear it. It’s much deeper than the word “nice”. I guess that’s the limit in vocabulary to those who use it. I prefer using the terms “ gracious, accommodating, auspicious. Or perhaps, self-assured, unpretentious or opaque. For instance, very early in this discussion, He was very quick to clarify any misconceptions that gave him or any other person credit for an mission that required a “ team “ to execute. It’s almost apart of our DNA. Here’s as close as I can describe it in 1 phrase. - “ The Canadian way” - When the bell rings, we fight like hell. Use whatever means necessary to win. Find something inside you & never quit. Be a savage! When it’s over, remove your gold medal & shake hands with you’re opponent . Later , If asked about the victory - you’re answer is “ that was the toughest opponent I ever had. Could have gone either way “ lol That’s about as much as a generalization as I can give you
Very interesting interview Shawn! In highschool (early 1980's), I had an english teacher (highschool was in french Canada) who was a retired career soldier (Korean & WWII vet) who had us read a lot about British and US special troops (SAS/SBS, Rangers & Green Berets). The Falklands war was making the 6:00 pm and 11:00 pm news at the time. He always alluded to the superior physical conditioning of these soldiers but above all, the high level of mental resilience and fortitude that was required to get through selection. Your interview with Dallas and other SF troops on your channel, really highlights how the mental resilience of these operators is just on a completely different level. The "battle field rape" anecdote would cause most to rage to the point of distraction. Not this operator - "Next level rocket fuel" - and sends him into a zone of hipper focus. I think that's one characteristic that separates someone like Dallas from a civilian or a regular forces soldier. That mental, emotional and physical resilience. Definitely the sharp end of sword. I hope the current CAF command realizes what they have lost with Dallas and others similar operators from the squadrons.
Terrific job Dallas. Love your songs too. Raw and simple. One of the few great things remaining in Canada, JTF2. Thanks Shawn for covering this. I know you took lots of heat over this one! CanUsa strong. Good.
I remember hearing in an interview one time the iraqis thought the guys from the USA literally had cold pills cus they didn't understand why they operated during the hottest part of the day. That's why the bad guys would seem to stop for lunch, they didn't operate during that time.
in Canada snipers are outed faster than any other soldier ... simply because they use them so much ... few snipers get the 6 month down time like the regular units ... most often a sniper team gets detached duty and serves full service for years ... avg is 5 to 8 years of weekend passes only once a month ... none of this namby pamby 6 months on 6 months off stuff
As a Canadian, this story really pisses me off. Spent literally millions of taxpayer money training this guy to be a total heroic badass, then piss it all away over a fkin MASK? That bumbledick politician or commander behind that decision should have to answer for the utter ego run stupidity on that.
That's not the only reason, but wearing a mask and getting vaccinated is about operational readiness; if you get sick, you put the rest of the team and the mission at risk, and if you do that, you're "off the team."
God damn, if someone had told me Canadians were the best snipers in the world, I never would have believed it. But I guess they do know how to hunt big game up there.
Nice that he fought in such a noble war. Invading a sovereign nation on lies and murdering the natives from a distance with a rifle. Stellar? He’s a legend. He was sent to kill in an illegal war.
@@johnobrien1528he wasn't fighting in Iraq in the early 2000s you dolt. He was fighting against the Islamic State who were murdering, raping and enslaving innocent people.
Thats hilarious! Your the guy who said he watches Jackass videos on repeat 24/7? Yeah I saw your post earlier about ur mom. I’d be totally pissed too if my mom always interrupted me. You should really get a lock to the basement door.
It makes my shot hitting 3" target at 600 yards nothing.. It's not like it is in the movies, like Tom Cruses sniper shot at the target range, it takes a lot of dope developing and figuring wind based on mirage, grass blowing, etc. I use a consumer grade app and it takes me looking at my position on a google map, pulling weather data for atmospheric pressure, measuring my angle with accelerometers, as well as compass, range finding either with google map a laser or measuring up an object with my hash reticle hash marks and that's on top of spending money and time measuring the velocity of the ammo with chronograph and assigning that to batches of ammo as well as mapping of my barrel, twist rate, height of scope from barrel, length, etc. Then you get a "dope" to adjust your scope elevation and only then can you take shots and get close enough to make corrections due to wind or barrel temperature.
My brother's brother inlaw was a member of CAF Princess Pats when they were doing Kandahar fighting. He explained the same way, It was up in the morning at the base early, breakfast, load onto a helicopter fly out to the mountains for some fierce firefight, fly back in to base when done mission.......zzzz
Firing a gun on moving targets from a distance, requires no skill. Lee Harvey Oswald, a half blind, half drunk with parkinson's proved it could be done with a bolt action rifle.
I love that you are posting this along with the almost 5 hour video. It's the perfect 'fuck you' to my dumbass government. Dallas Alexander, thank you for your service.
First off having people like out of the forces is no loss. He was replaced instantly. The military like all has a responsibility to all it's members not just the idiot anti-vaxx ones. Out of the roughly 100k members from active, reserve and rangers only 370 were discharged, that's 99.7% of its members. The US military was 98% compliant during the time period when vaccines were mandatory. This clown is not a hero for being discharged but an example of a selfish douche who ended his career.
All Marines say they were snipers at work. I'm making light of a half truth. I've always said being a sniper would be the worst job to have. Laying there for days, bored, uncomfortable. I can barely sit 3 hours in a deer stand. New guys that are wide open and tell war stories without anyone asking, over the years, have asked what I did. I tell them I was a rear turret gunner on a submarine. The word gets around and then I get a friend that laughing his ass off tells me the guy believed it. Oldest trick in the book.
Is that not this whole channel in a way? You are listening to a man tell a story with not just "details " but a fucking video? Yeah I agree 100% b.s. anyone can fake videos nowadays
This is probably going to end up being in the top 10 interviews of the year... What a story! Props to these boys. I'm a Buddhist, but even Buddha killed (in. Aprevious lifetime lifetime) to save hundreds.
10 seconds is a long shot. I watched someone shooting two miles with a 338.LM.Time from shot to impact 7 seconds and target was 2' x2' Sq. MOA = 30 inches '+ - but close. He hit 2 out of 7. Elevation dead on Windage is the wild card at that range in gusty conditions. You can only go off your gut and holds that hit. I remember a similar where a shooter asked someone he trusted what his wind hold was. 9.5 mils left was the reply. After dialing ele. he held 9.5 left. squeezed the trigger and , didn't hit paper. He told the shooter he held 9.5 l just like he was instructed and he missed the entire target. The old timer said my shots were off too.
Lunchtime tends to be the hottest time of the day (12-3). People eat then rest () and beat the heat. They pick up their activities again late afternoon/evening when it gets cooler
i need a good sized range to practice longer shots with my 30-06, hey its what i got and could afford so. back when i was in the army most ranges were 100 with a few rare popup ranges at 300, but here where i live it just 100 anywhere close. so i was looking up on charts for the adjustments for just 300m just to get an idea a while back. it was frustrating because all 3 of the sites i checked with the same input gave me really different results. don't remember exactly but it went from some like a 3 moa to something like 500 moa with the third site being at something like 50 moa. just going by those sites i figured at least 2 out of 3 sites info is likely crap. only way to really know would be with practice, practice, practice. the amount of training, etc., those snipers go through long before they even get their first shot at such a distance is almost mind boggling.
a mcmillan tactical 50 soft load copper jacket actually .. just over 1k at muzzle ... the 940 is a barrets soft load ... not often used by JTF ... since the mcmillan is lighter and more reliable and better built ... yes I have shot all the variants of BOTH of them and I prefer my Baby ... Mcmillan tactical 50 every time
My grandfather was a Canadian sniper. He lives hitting targets. He loves kinetically interacting with targets far far away. He loved interacting with wind and gravity and trees and nature. He hated seeing the whites of their eyes.
Hopefully the logistics people are considering that the enemy is going to be learning drastically from their engagements. I really hope somebody will develop some sort of drone that can fly out there and launch a static surveillance system that can give you eyes on in the Target grid

That's not the only reason, but wearing a mask and getting vaccinated is about operational readiness; if you get sick, you put the rest of the team and the mission at risk, and if you do that, you're "off the team."
the real question is why the fuck would you get kicked out of jtf2 for not wearing a mask? thats what is absurd
God damn, if someone had told me Canadians were the best snipers in the world, I never would have believed it. But I guess they do know how to hunt big game up there.
We just don't write a million books about it.
Have had a lot of great snipers from Francis Pegahmagabow onward
" Humans are big game." That is a line from a famous horror movie made in 1973.
The most dangerous game ??
of the top ten shots ... 4 are canadian ... and those are just the ones they acknowledge ...
Wow! I remember when the news broke about this shot. I never thought I would get to hear the actual back story. Not this soon at least.
🇨🇦 proud of our guys and their history of stellar performance in conflict.
Nice that he fought in such a noble war. Invading a sovereign nation on lies and murdering the natives from a distance with a rifle. Stellar? He’s a legend. He was sent to kill in an illegal war.
@@johnobrien1528he wasn't fighting in Iraq in the early 2000s you dolt. He was fighting against the Islamic State who were murdering, raping and enslaving innocent people.
At these distances, your not a sniper, it’s high precision artillery
He’s wearing an original Tudor Pelagos - for my watch friends out there
Thanks! thought it was a Sub. But a diver for sure.
I was wondering. Thanks!
@@patrickr4762 no prob! It does look like a sub!
@@notyourdaddy8300 no prob!
Looks like it has helium escape valve ….my thought was Rolex “Sea Dweller “. But then I saw the snow flake hour hand……yup..Pelagos
Good Alberta Boy, well done Dallas
"We weren't too worried about them spotting us from 3.5km away" 😂
3 out of the 5 longest sniper shots in history are all Canadian snipers ! Coincidence…don’t think so !
It’s like waiting for a missile to hit you could light a smoke and have a few drags
Thank you for your service ❤🇺🇸
Imagine playing so much CoD that you think the guy who pulled the trigger could accomplish an inhuman feat like that ALONE
I had no idea Bam Margera is a sniper now.
😂
Thats hilarious! Your the guy who said he watches Jackass videos on repeat 24/7? Yeah I saw your post earlier about ur mom. I’d be totally pissed too if my mom always interrupted me. You should really get a lock to the basement door.
@@Nohandle2500 thanks! But I don't think I'm the guy you're talking about. My basement is locked tight 😉
It makes my shot hitting 3" target at 600 yards nothing.. It's not like it is in the movies, like Tom Cruses sniper shot at the target range, it takes a lot of dope developing and figuring wind based on mirage, grass blowing, etc. I use a consumer grade app and it takes me looking at my position on a google map, pulling weather data for atmospheric pressure, measuring my angle with accelerometers, as well as compass, range finding either with google map a laser or measuring up an object with my hash reticle hash marks and that's on top of spending money and time measuring the velocity of the ammo with chronograph and assigning that to batches of ammo as well as mapping of my barrel, twist rate, height of scope from barrel, length, etc. Then you get a "dope" to adjust your scope elevation and only then can you take shots and get close enough to make corrections due to wind or barrel temperature.
absoulutely INCREDIBLE
My brother's brother inlaw was a member of CAF Princess Pats when they were doing Kandahar fighting. He explained the same way, It was up in the morning at the base early, breakfast, load onto a helicopter fly out to the mountains for some fierce firefight, fly back in to base when done mission.......zzzz
100% Canadian Badass and Hero
10 sec flight time. Reminds me of Quake 3 Rocket Arena railgunning away on 33.6k dial up
This is why Canadian sniper will always be undefeated.. we know how to get things done right!. #JTF2
Firing a gun on moving targets from a distance, requires no skill. Lee Harvey Oswald, a half blind, half drunk with parkinson's proved it could be done with a bolt action rifle.
@@maxsmith695 I saw somewhere that Kennedy was shot from the front seat of the car he was riding in
@maxsmith695 again you prove you have an empty cranium.
Anyone else count the flight time when the video played? That was one hell of a distance.
I love that you are posting this along with the almost 5 hour video. It's the perfect 'fuck you' to my dumbass government. Dallas Alexander, thank you for your service.
First off having people like out of the forces is no loss. He was replaced instantly. The military like all has a responsibility to all it's members not just the idiot anti-vaxx ones. Out of the roughly 100k members from active, reserve and rangers only 370 were discharged, that's 99.7% of its members. The US military was 98% compliant during the time period when vaccines were mandatory. This clown is not a hero for being discharged but an example of a selfish douche who ended his career.
Remarkable shot!!! WOW
Nice Tudor Pelagos !
It calms down mid-day because of the heat.
That’s nothing… once we shot at a guy in the morning, went to lunch, came back and then the round hit him.
All Marines say they were snipers at work. I'm making light of a half truth. I've always said being a sniper would be the worst job to have. Laying there for days, bored, uncomfortable. I can barely sit 3 hours in a deer stand. New guys that are wide open and tell war stories without anyone asking, over the years, have asked what I did. I tell them I was a rear turret gunner on a submarine. The word gets around and then I get a friend that laughing his ass off tells me the guy believed it. Oldest trick in the book.
Telling details of any mission is not allowed. Assume this is for comedy purposes only.
Is that not this whole channel in a way? You are listening to a man tell a story with not just "details " but a fucking video? Yeah I agree 100% b.s. anyone can fake videos nowadays
@@steverichards7469 Half the Marines were snipers and half the enlisted Navy were Seals. LOL
This is probably going to end up being in the top 10 interviews of the year... What a story! Props to these boys. I'm a Buddhist, but even Buddha killed (in. Aprevious lifetime lifetime) to save hundreds.
That footage is amazing !
Don’t mess with the Canadians.
I wonder if they would shoot at the motorbike “stretcher bears.”
Hes Canadian. Too polite. If he did he probably just purposely shot the engine of the bike to disable it 😂
If you can find and interview Instructor Patstone from the buds class 234 documentary, epic would be a gross understatement.
Polite vs. Nice is a crucial distinction 😂
10 seconds is a long shot. I watched someone shooting two miles with a 338.LM.Time from shot to impact 7 seconds and target was 2' x2' Sq. MOA = 30 inches '+ - but close. He hit 2 out of 7. Elevation dead on
Windage is the wild card at that range in gusty conditions. You can only go off your gut and holds that hit.
I remember a similar where a shooter asked someone he trusted what his wind hold was. 9.5 mils left was the reply. After dialing ele. he held 9.5 left. squeezed the trigger and , didn't hit paper. He told the shooter he held 9.5 l just like he was instructed and he missed the entire target. The old timer said my shots were off too.
Idk how tall this dude is, but he looks enormous in that chair
4'9
glad theyre on our side.
I know many People spent a small fortune trying to duplicate that shot , as far as i know no one has been able to do it .
2 clicks up 1 left.. “I don’t have enough clicks mane!” 😂
How Canadian are you? "Sowry, I'll back up." 😂
How tall is this dude?! I've never seen anyone's knees riding that high sitting in the chair.
He's sitting on those huge brass balls. 😂
The guy calling the wind is the hero 😊
Hes wearing the watch im wearing on my hand he got the pelagos rhd black tudor. I got the lhd tudor pelagos.
That is insane! Great shooting
Fighting starts after morning prayer and goes until the net prayer...fighting starts again...until the next prayer!
I caught a quick glimpse, those boots are sick, Shawn...
Lunchtime tends to be the hottest time of the day (12-3). People eat then rest () and beat the heat. They pick up their activities again late afternoon/evening when it gets cooler
HE SHOOTS-HE SCORES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When u CONTROL the battles u CONTROL WAR =Winners
I wish we could see them drop
You know both those guys are taking credit for the killshot
You should blur or pause the video because you can definately read on his lips who he's talking about during the beeps
At the end of the video, he says "the 2nd shot landed 1/4 mil to the left". I thought "Mil" referred to millimetres, but what is he saying here?
Milliradian. It’s a unit of angular measurement. A 1/4 Mil at 3,540m would be .885m, or about 35”.
Outstanding 🎯
Chillest killer on earth
i need a good sized range to practice longer shots with my 30-06, hey its what i got and could afford so. back when i was in the army most ranges were 100 with a few rare popup ranges at 300, but here where i live it just 100 anywhere close. so i was looking up on charts for the adjustments for just 300m just to get an idea a while back. it was frustrating because all 3 of the sites i checked with the same input gave me really different results. don't remember exactly but it went from some like a 3 moa to something like 500 moa with the third site being at something like 50 moa. just going by those sites i figured at least 2 out of 3 sites info is likely crap. only way to really know would be with practice, practice, practice. the amount of training, etc., those snipers go through long before they even get their first shot at such a distance is almost mind boggling.
Hell yeah brother. What a 1hell of a shot. I would like to see the video also.
you just did
Hey man, what jacket are you wearing?
He speaks truth, without the spotter the sniper is not gonna make that shot.
Welldone dallas.
For those questioning the time, it was a .50 subsonic @ 940 ft per second.
a mcmillan tactical 50 soft load copper jacket actually .. just over 1k at muzzle ... the 940 is a barrets soft load ... not often used by JTF ... since the mcmillan is lighter and more reliable and better built ... yes I have shot all the variants of BOTH of them and I prefer my Baby ... Mcmillan tactical 50 every time
My grandfather was a Canadian sniper. He lives hitting targets. He loves kinetically interacting with targets far far away. He loved interacting with wind and gravity and trees and nature. He hated seeing the whites of their eyes.
The video is awesome!!
Can you get former JFT2 operator turned pro arm wrestler Devon Laratt ? Thanks
backcheck, forecheck, paycheck baby
to put that last comment in to perspective one mil at 2.2 miles is 34 inches. 34 inches at over 2 miles is dumb acccurate
So glad Bam Margera turned his life around!
So this is what a sober Bam Margera looks like
His words say "elite sniper," but his hair says "2002 MTV TRL #8, day 11".
Wow... thats where bam from jackass went
Saying 'like' so much was driving me nuts.
You can see the oh shit moment when he said his buddy’s name 😂
If the person gets hit but does not die, does it count?
and yet on top of all that... they did it wearing flip flops lol
Hopefully the logistics people are considering that the enemy is going to be learning drastically from their engagements. I really hope somebody will develop some sort of drone that can fly out there and launch a static surveillance system that can give you eyes on in the Target grid
3-4k out ends up a knuckle ball
