  • So you're looking to stretch the legs on your new long range rifle/ scope setup? Stick around and check out this video as I provide a step by step look at the process I use when stretching the legs on a new precision rifle. We take an in depth look at the zeroing process, capturing bullet velocity, entering the critical information into your ballstic app and then using that app to provide a firing solution to take a shot at long range. I believe this video will provide value to both experienced long range shooters as well as those of you new to the sport. Let me know what you think!

I remember I was initially nervous about going to a "christmas tree" style reticle but now that I've made the swap I'm not going back haha. A reloading video is on my to do list but it'll be down the road. For the immediate future I want to focus on shooting related content as that's what seems to be working. Given I'm still relatively new my focus now is just extending the reach of the channel and winning over more fans.

    I consider myself to be an intermediate level shooter both with regards to my knowledge and my level of skill. Most videos that I watch are a review, as far as the mechanics of shooting go. this is the first video that I have watched that explains why the parallax adjustment is called the parallax adjustment and how that actually relates to parallax. I have always just thought about it as the "focus" knob. This gave me the knowledge necessary to evaluate whether my parallax is adjusted correctly, which has always been a struggle due to my astigmatism. That has probably caused more than a few "flyers" as moving my head position might have caused a shift in point of aim /impact. Thanks! You've earned a new subscriber.

    I use the same tactics and process. My builds take me alittle more time. Load developement and barrel break-in. Ballistic calculator and solid data is key. Chrono seals the deal.

    • @silvermediastudio
      @silvermediastudio 8 місяців тому

      Barrel "break-in" as it was traditionally done (shoot one, clean, shoot five clean, shoot ten clean, whatever) has mostly been determined as pointless, if you are using modern custom barrels. The burrs and tool marks that were so common in the past just aren't an issue any more with modern manufacturing, be it button or hammer forged. What is critical is that you clean the bore of any manufacturing oils, protect the bore with a very light coat of lubricant (Ballistol, CLP, or any of the dozens of Gucci products you prefer), and then establish copper equilibrium. This is accomplished by shooting your intended bullet and tracking velocity, it will start slow then speed up and then level off. That leveling off point tells you that the bullets have deposited a layer of copper into the bore and for the next 800-2000+ rounds (depending on what you're shooting) you should expect very consistent velocities if you continue to use the same load and don't clean it so hard that you remove the desirable copper fouling. When you see a drop-off in velocity, it is an indicator that the barrel is approaching end of life (typically from throat erosion).

    Wow a real video showing the process not wasting time on trivial commentary not sub 10 min rushing. Saving this for handing out. Another thing to consider is twist rate to round choice. Not pushed my new build yet in 1:11.25 but solid between 100 then 250 with near center impacts same holds in .308. The 6.5 Creedmoor did not really care and more centered each shot. Both seem very good, my goal is 1k shots someday.

    Decent!
    However… you conclude the session with substantial remaining uncertainty in your fire solution. It is possible to achieve full validation of fire solution in one session… but there are prerequisites including:
    1) tall target test to validate level and turret tracking.
    2) starting with a fire solution based on a custom drag model (CDM) or a G7 BC trued to match a CDM solution at the furthest distance you will shoot.
    3) invest more rounds into your zero. Shoot a 5-10rd group and use an app to measure the exact centre of the group and enter that group centre into your solution along with the environment conditions at the time the zero group was shot.
    4) measure the temperature, station pressure and humidity with a device like a kestrel drop D3. Enter those values into your solution.
    5) get MV measurements at high temp and at low temp and enter into solution. Keep an eye on MV over time and keep updating the solution as the MV migrates.
    Almost always… if I do the above I achieve perfect vertical solution at all supersonic ranges without having to true the BC any further. Occasionally a small BC truing tweak is required…. I have found that the applied ballistics custom drag model solutions are very accurate for achieving first round hits.
    Walking hits in to find a solution through trial and error works but it is more satisfying to do all the math and 100m homework in advance and show up with a solution that is on point right out of the gate.

    Those factory fresh barrels might still have microscopic burrs in them- probably why your ballistics seemed to change over the course of fire. Might be worthwhile to 'mag dump' a bit cheaper ammo for the first 30 rounds to polish it out a bit. That being said, you were still getting very good results for first rounds fired. I would only expect it to improve as the gun settles in and you get familiar with it- very well done!
    I've had some friends rag on Riton (gear snobs are going to gear-snob), but I'm glad to see it seems very serviceable and functional for pushing out. Appreciate your vids!

I will be actually running an accutac bipod on this rifle however when I filmed this video I didn’t have a pic rail section to put on the stock to actually mount the accutac. Given the stock came with a sling stud in it I was able to mount the harris which is good enough to get the job done. Next time you see this rig though it’ll be equipped with an accutac. Thanks for watching!

  • @trevorkolmatycki4042
    @trevorkolmatycki4042 10 місяців тому

    I strongly recommend doing a tall target test at 100m to verify your level and to determine how much your turret actually dials before attempting long range. For example you might dial 10mil but then hit at 9.5mil at 100m. In this example the turret is tracking 5% low. Any good ballistic app will allow you to input the amount that your turret actually tracks and correct your dial amount accordingly. If you do not do this step you could end up thinking the problem is your BC or your MV and you will start chasing your tail. Plenty of videos out there showing how to properly conduct tall target tests.
