Shooting Practice for Hunting with Randy Newberg (Part 1)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- Shooting practice for hunting is far different than bench shooting. In this series of videos Randy Newberg explains how his shooting practice is designed to improve his abilities while in real hunting conditions.
During practice sessions we will show how to shoot in many different positions, terrain, and conditions that will replicate hunting situations. Seldom do hunting opportunities allow for all the comforts and certainties we find on a bench.
In this first video we talk about finding a "field zero" after traveling. Very often you will not have a bench from which to zero, so you are required to improvise and make due with less than perfect situations.
Point of this series being - hunters need to replicate hunting situations in the most realistic scenarios as possible.

Thank you for this upcoming series, it’s exactly what I need as a newer hunter.
Last year I was guiding a gentleman in northern Utah. After several attempts he had missed two standing, broadside shots under 225 yards off shooting sticks. I stopped the hunt until we figured out the problem. After dry firing, it turned out he had a bad issue with flinching. That evening we spotted a nice buck, but I would not let him shoot until he could dry fire on the deer without flinching. After 10-15 mins, a short stalk, and over a dozen dry fires, he dropped the deer at 315 yards. Had we not stoped to check the rifle, he would have gone home empty handed. Instead, he went home with a big buck and a valuable lesson!
Excellent
Great video Randy! Good to have this kind of information packages to recall the basics while waiting for new hunting season to start here in Finland.
Thank you for watching. Onnea sinulle.
Thank you for the video Randy. Always such good information. Looking forward to the next ones.
Thanks for watching.
Cool video!! and love the show, in my opinion you have one of the realist hunting show on tv. keep up the good work buddy!
Nice.
I would have moved it a 1/4 right and tighten that group closer to the corner.
But great info.
I can't wait for more videos like this! I have just started doing this with my 308 and 6.5x47 Lapua. Both outstanding rifles. Never have shot an animal front the bench, haha.
That is why we are doing this series. Big differences in the bench shooting and the frantic, unlevel, obstructed conditions we face while hunting. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Can't wait to see the next one. Matt had a lot of good information. Thank you!
Yes, he always does. Fun to shoot with him. Thanks for watching.
Matt needs to be featured more, the dude is a walking encyclopedia on shooting!
That he is. Matt has an open invitation with us.
Great video, posted on my birthday too 🤘😎🤘
Randy I really enjoyed this and was hoping you'd do a series on how to get ready for real live hunting type shooting practice. This was a very good start, and I welcome the other follow up series. I bought the book on How to Learn to Shoot Like a Naval Seal, and then I realized that I'm about 40 years too late!
I'm not an expert marksmen, but I do get a lot of practice in hunting conditions.
Great video idea! i am very impressed with my Howa alpine 308! i couldnt be happier. my go to gun for sure! thanks again for your inspiration and being down to earth lol
Thanks for watching. That is also my "go to" gun.
Great info. Looking forward to the 6.5 stuff.
Thanks for watching. Will be doing plenty of 6.5CM stuff this summer.
Good tip to aim for the corner of a small square, not the center...precision!
Looks like a fun activity to do with my son this summer. "Practice makes perfect" or "Gooder". LOL
Never a bad time to practice shooting.
Ok? Is it a video clip, or a video magazine? 😈 I'm looking forward to the rest of this series. Thanks for what you do.
Thanks for watching.
great video. awesome information.
Hope we can provide more in the coming weeks. I feel that practicing real life hunting situations is critical for field accuracy.
mmm those trophy grade ammo sure look tasty
Shoot the corners. It works.
First video ever of Randy wearing ear protection!!! ;)
All our shooting vids, including our dove hunts, have me wearing such. Wish I was smarter about ear protection while hunting, shooting, working, chain saws, etc back in the day when I had good hearing.
Randy Newberg, Hunter I'm just joking around.
How much reward pressure are you applying to pull the rifle in your shoulder pocket?
I may have missed it...What is distance you are shooting to find field zero??
Depends on the rifle/cartridge. With this one, it was 100 yards.
What caliber is your rifle
Hi Randy, Thanks for the videos. Notice that you don't bother holding down the forearm. Are you ever concerned about getting muzzle jump and shooting high. Just curious. I'm always trying to get better.
I never hold the forearm. Never had muzzle jump, even with my larger calibers.
What stock is that it don't look like a hogue
you really seem to love the short actions. have you had any experience with the 6.5 creedmoor and/or have an opinion of it?
Yup, I've pretty much migrated to all short actions. I have a 6.5CM that I am working on. It will be ready for hunting use this season. What I see so far, I really like.
Randy Newberg, Hunter how do you feel it compares to the 7mm-08?
Great Video. Appreciate the information. Question: Was that at 100 yards? I usually set zero at 100, but in the video that appeared to be much farther.
That was 200. On that set up I have my CDS dials set for 200 zero. Thanks for watching.
Sorry to ask you alot of questions, but are the leupold dovetail mounts strong enough for magnum cartridges
I use them on my .300 Win Mag. I suspect they are strong enough for most anything.
Randy Newberg, Hunter ok thanks. Hopefully they work for a .338
Randy, thanks for doing these great videos. I love the 7 mm-08 (short actions). Do you use the 300 Win. Mag. much? I find the recoil to be uncomfortable.
I have three rifles chambered in .300 Win. I've killed plenty of animals with them. I like the light weight that can be obtained with the short actions of 7mm-.08 or .308 Win, so I seem to be reaching for those in most hunts and spend less time hunting with the .300 Win Mag.
Thanks for watching.
I know this question isn't directed at me and is old but I wanted to add in that with a properly engineered stock and recoil pad the 300wm is an excellent shooting cartridge. Surprisingly light rifles (such as Savage model 10 variants) can handle the 300 without issue.
Hunter is my life
Great info! How can a guy get one of those Hunt Talk Hats? Looking good!
👍
I just bought a Tikka 270wsm. I love it, besides the price of ammo. Next year I'm thinking 7-08 or 6.5 cm. What would be the pros and cons of those calibers? I know ballistically the 6.5 is amazing, but the 7-08 is no slouch either. Any advice would be great. And this for Elk, Moose, Dear and Black bear. And I don't reload yet.
If you didn't have elk and moose on that list, I would say go with the 6.5CM. With those on the list, I would go with the 7mm-.08. I have both and they are great cartridges.
pLz help me came a leupold in nepal
Great video. What do think of a workout to develop stamina, strength, and confidence. Now I don' want you in a Jane Fonda type but prep time before we hunt makes the hunt better.
I mostly hike, with heavy loads, over uneven terrain. When practicing shooting while exerted, I do burpees, jogging, jumping, or anything that gets my heart rate faster, though nothing seems to get my hear rate to the same pace as a big elk.
Is it ok to dry fire a rifle like that? Its been drilled into my head that it's bad but i don't know forsure.
Not only is it OK, it is some of the best practice you can do. This is for almost all modern center fire rifles. If you have some weird WW1 German Mauser call an expert.
If you're unsure then go get some dummy rounds. Dummy ammo is shaped like live cartridges but are very easy to distinguish. They have a piece of rubber where the primer would be which protects the firing pin. They are great for practicing all the motions of shooting in a completely safe manner.
Plzz give
I have a Howa .308. Who do you feel the best manufacturer is for the Howa? At the moment I'm using Hornady 150g.
I use all Nosler ammo, from Partitions to E-Tip to AccuBond. In my .308 Win I use Nosler 165 grain partitions.
Many thanks, I'll give the Nosler a go. Good hunting 😊.
Is it okay or not to dry fire? That’s an army sniper telling Randy to dry fire. So many it’s a terrible idea.
I do it all the time. I asked Howa and they said it is fine.
young pup leading the ol dog
Matt's the real deal. I'm always taking notes from him.
All good then.
You could just print targets on printer paper.
Plz give me a Leupold gun
1/4 moa out is not a good enough zero lmao
