I have been shooting and reloading for about thirty years now. I learned reloading from my Dad who reloaded for hunting. I recently, within the past couple of years started chasing accuracy and have learned that there is much more needed and greater detail must be used. I shoot a little PRS with a gas gun and when I am verifying my zero and speed for the climate, everyone who shoots around me wants to know how I get such small groups with a gas gun. I start by telling them that I tuned the gun and then tuned the ammunition. I'm not by any stretch of the imagination a great shooter, I just tested and figured out what works for me. I love these videos and the varying opinions but what I love most is the fact that you don't hold anything back. Thank you for the time you take to put some of the best shooters and industry experts in one place.
Oh no... they all hold back. But you’ll still learn and if you listen carefully you notice what they avoid. They’ll give the monkeys the flint but not fire.
I too have been doing it for about 30years i learned from my dad for hunting. Im now a rifle builder and 1000yd benchrest shooter and i reload now nothing like i did when i started at 8yrs old learning from my dad. Its a comstant thing i am always learning more with too. Never stop learning in this
Thanks Eric! Jack is one heck of a guy! Indirectly met him this past summer at Kelbly’s Supershoot! Just went to visit (not shooting) and was talking to some friends friends that happened to be reloading close by! I have a PPC but use it for benchrest varmint matches. Jack didn’t hesitate to tell me that I should try NBRSA matches and he was willing to give me some good advice! Like I said, just a great guy! But for the most part, that’s competitive shooting community!
Since the first time Jack was on the show, I was at a match and I recognized him. Was really cool . Actually,I got into short range cuz Eric had him on. 4 barrels ago too!!
It’s really great to see a master in the game like Jack, say that he’s still a student. Absolutely a class act that loves the sport and enjoys helping others. It’s a great thing that guys are out there, like you and Jack, that have such a wealth of information, and are so will to share. Thanks for all you bring to the sport. I hope you have a safe and happy new year.
Thanks Jack. No one could have said it better. Share the wealth of knowledge. Thanks Eric. For the same. Knowledge is not free, but these channels go along way. Sometimes you have to figure out shit on your own. I always thought there was alot more numbers and money in shooting. The archery world has several thousand participants at the world archert festival in Vegas. However thats once a year. Keep up the good work.
Another show with good examples of what works in certain disciplines and doesn't in others, or isn't necessary in others. One thing that was pointed out to a small extent, but not delved into real hard, is the proper sized sizing die for the chamber in the gun. Jack's experience with using new brass he was fireforming is also due to the fact he is converting the 220 to the 6ppc, and has the die that will set the shoulder where he wants it for fireforming purposes.
Dang it! It's like getting left on the cliff's edge!! This stuff is amazing! Your videos are just packed full of info from great people, thank you so much for doing these. Keep up the great work!!
Erik it would be great if you could do a full blown video series with Jack demonstrating some this stuff. These interviews are great but sometimes "seeing the target is believing the target".
Great video! How about a video demonstrating how to test a bolt shroud for play and an example of one with play and one without. Also some of the ways to fix it. Thank you!
I've been fighting with a rifle for over eight years trying to make it shoot. Three barrels from three smiths and still no dice. The information from Mr Neary has given me some clues as where to search for issues, so yes, please get him back for another episode!
@thomasshoe92 shot a .368" for three shots the other day. I somewhat use this method, but I like to stay too close to the upper end of pressure. I'll load to find pressure one round at a time, and when I hit it, I'll back of 1gr. From there I work up in .3gr increments. When I find a good load I go after seating depth. Sometimes you have to come off the powder a little if you adjust depth more than .020"
Hmmmmmm. Very insightful talk Eric. Now I definitely don't agree with everything Jack said however, there are quite a lot of things that you & Jack have definitely got me thinking about. Thank you Eric for your time & effort. Greatly appreciated.
@@davidsalsedo Last time I looked, Jack Neary isn't the only Guy who wins nationals & they all have different takes on what works & some disagree with certain aspects of what Jack says works so, I'm not the only one. If we base the collective knowledge upon the opinions of all the top shooters combined, the science is far from settled but, we're getting there.
I’d and others would be very interested in process departure that has the evidential weight of results by way of winning score. Especially against Eric or Jack.
Jack or Eric , I always had the sign wave of carbon around the neck. But I always used a reading S type busching. I switched one day to the SAC neck bushings. If you're familiar it sizes the neck about 60% and tapers to the shoulder. When I used this SAC neck bushings to size I instantly went from a sign wave to the full neck was covered in carbon. Is there anything that you could tell me good or bad about what I'm experiencing. Perhaps why ? Should I go back to the regular reading bushings?
I obviously feel uncomfortable disagreeing with a true master of the shooting game, but I've had dents in my cases at the shoulder that were not from lube or foreign matter in the chamber. In one instance, I'm confident that the powder charge was too light which caused blow back from the case not quickly sealing the chamber at ignition. Otherwise, great stuff Erik. Thanks for sharing.
Question for Jack, the 220 Russian case is a 21.5* shoulder and when fireformed it is a 30*, when you neck turn after expanding it is still a 21.5* shoulder? Do you use the 21.5* cutter or the 30*? Thanks for your time! Great interview too!
Good morning Eric, I am leetterally hungry for the experiences you share and for that I can only be grateful. Unfortunately, I try to learn the concepts through google translator and one of the passages that remains obscure to me is when the translation/transcription talks about BREASTS. I understand what neck, shoulder, body, head is but BREASTS is missing for me. Can you please explain what they are? Happy Holidays
What powder you using.? I got one. With a .150FB. 8tw. Had shot 80smk good. Now I'm trying the berger80.5 with 4350. Thinking about going to a faster powder
I have never seen a difference doing anything too a primer pocket, so I’m pretty certain it’s a BR thing, if F-Class shooters can’t tell a difference then you don’t need too do it.
I love hearing how much i don’t know or don’t understand explained plainly
I love all of your interviews but I think I’ve learned the most from all of Jack’s so far. Keep ‘em coming.

These interviews with Jack have been the most educational for me and the most relevant to what I do. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks.

A thriller with “stay tuned” at the best part!!
Thank you Eric and Jack!!
It just keeps getting better and better.

Can't wait for part 3 I can listen to you guys talking about this stuff all day!!!
Thanks Jack, and Erik for hosting the talk. Well done and keep 'em small for '23!!

Yes it will be nice to see a video of Jack going thru his case prep.
Erik it would be great if you could do a full blown video series with Jack demonstrating some this stuff. These interviews are great but sometimes "seeing the target is believing the target".
Thank you for the knowledge
For those of us new to this class of shooting sports, I looked it up, Mr. Neary set a record in 2019 with a .110" 5-shot group at 200yds.
Wild stuff.
Great video! How about a video demonstrating how to test a bolt shroud for play and an example of one with play and one without. Also some of the ways to fix it. Thank you!

What cartridge are you shooting? And bullet?
@@treece1 300winmag, 212eldx, 215 berger hybrid, and a 208 eldm.
This video is a gem
Hmmmmmm. Very insightful talk Eric.

Go beat them and they’ll listen to where you think they’re wrong.

Question Jack. Do you uniform the flash holes and/or primer pockets on the 6PPC brass?
I've been an also ran guy for 40 years. Every year I hear more things. Now I need to check my ignition?
Every explosion has one.
Some better than others
Consistency is the key
really cool podcast thanks Eric, would you do a clip just on blueprinting the bolt at some time ? cheers john from New Zealand.
I obviously feel uncomfortable disagreeing with a true master of the shooting game, but I've had dents in my cases at the shoulder that were not from lube or foreign matter in the chamber.

Jack, I live in sheffield lake, I shoot at a 300 yd range in Vermilion. Where do you shoot ?
Another great video
Thanks again!
@@BelieveTheTarget
What's the best "budget" neck turner?
Great as always! But now you have to show us how to check the shroud!😅
Question for Jack, the 220 Russian case is a 21.5* shoulder and when fireformed it is a 30*, when you neck turn after expanding it is still a 21.5* shoulder? Do you use the 21.5* cutter or the 30*? Thanks for your time! Great interview too!

I shoot 22 BR ARA really look forward to learning more about ignition.....

How do you get your rifle to track straight back on free recoil
I have never seen a difference doing anything too a primer pocket, so I’m pretty certain it’s a BR thing, if F-Class shooters can’t tell a difference then you don’t need too do it.
Hello Jack
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m a little sad! I thought this was a new one
