For clarity: The second camera (the one on the target) was not seeing what neither I or my spotter was seeing. We were directly in line with the target, but the secondary camera was almost parallel to the target and 100 yards away to the left. It is confusing hearing us call out our misses, but you guys are clearly seeing something different because of the angle. I will do better next time. I just didn't want a flyer to hit my camera 🤣
What is sad is you have to clarify this because there are SOOOO many people that would destroy their equipment by placing it in the line of fire just due to lak of common sense. Love the vids and an amazing shot
Just paused the video. Havent seen much past the intro yet, words cannot describe how stoked i am for this. I hope you have zero wind plus a good wind break on both sides of your range by those trees. I have actually put shots on target with a winchester model 250 22lr open sights with 8-9 seconds from bang to ting, but that was a much larger target than a coke can. That was shooting between rows of trees tho on a calm day. I know the bullet traveled above the trees, but it was shielded for the most part a good portion of its flight path. May the spirit of our lord and savior john moses browning be with you. Im rooting for ya, if anyone can pull this off its you. God speed.
Yeah and to think that dude on GT said both him & his shooting partner did it on the reg with their hardware store .22s, shooting the cans off a tractor, and they had measured the distance. "Hand to God". I doubt he could even hit a tractor at 500.
The fact he got close with all that wind and just irons was amazing. I thought he was just trying to finesse a range day, probably did, but since he said he was shooting at a big red tractor he probably did do it. Likely in a flatter and less windy state
No, he never shot it back in the day at the range he is saying. Did you not pay attention to the video? No way. Look how many rounds 22 plinkster had to go through with a $5,000 rifle let alone a bare bones 10/22 with no optic. How did he even see the coke can at 700 yards to know if he even hit it? It just didn't happen.
@@Everyday_RailroadingDude, watch the video. The guy got within 10 feet of a coke can consistently in windy conditions with iron sights on a Ruger at 710 yards. He absolutely could've made it back in the day.
@@ThatOneStopSign and @mattchilds6852 The truth is probably somewhere in the middle... 22 guy and his brother probably took a bunch of shots at those coke cans - just like 22 plinkster did here. Like with most things, more tries increase success. Did he exaggerate those lucky shots? maybe, maybe not, maybe he remembers those lucky shots more than unlucky ones... (think of how excited 12 or 15 y/o you'd be after hitting something like that...)

@@UnhingedCanadian and I could hit the shot with $1,000 worth of rifle and a budget primary arms scope as well, and I bet you could to, particularly if I handed you a magazine of my basic reloads which make things even easier.

Man that’s like trying to throw a rock in a bucket from 100 yards…😂 I couldn’t believe how quick you got the rifle dialed in… That alone is a testament to how good of a shot you really are. Thanks for the video
Plinkster ...ever seen a 1940 naval issue stevens.22)410? If ya wind up in south Florida . I have some antique .22s id like ya to shoot. We can hit the range or hungryland or corbit. Id like to show ya some asian water monitor lizards id like to show fwc where to find em.
Looks like 3 times, not including the can which was in from of the plate. That means he hit 4 times inside an 8” plate in around 30 shots including sighting in.
Well done Dave, top man with a top rifle. I am truly enviously of you guys having all that real estate to have fun on. What a great country to be a shooter in. I just wish we in the UK had half as much freedom to enjoy this great pastime of ours. All the best from across the pond. 👍
Thank you for adding the little circles on the target camera for the shots that it managed to capture. I haven't finished watching the video yet, but even hitting the steel at that range was impressive. Edit: And having watched the rest of the vid, that was even more impressive.
That's just nuts, I don't care how good a rifle setup or how good the .22 ammo...a lot of skill, luck help from mother nature with the wind. Nicely done 👍
This is awesome. The more people do this long distance .22lr shooting, more people will come up with new ways and innovations to make the shots possible. Good 'ol technology just keeps progressing.
Best I have ever done is 500 yards and hit a 14" steel plate with my 22lr. I was THRILLED to do that. I cant imagine backing up another 200 yards and making the target that much smaller. Congrats on that shot!
500 yards is a LOOOONG way. Did C zone steel with a friend of mine years ago with his pimped 10/22 and we had to rely on each other working as spotters to make hits, because you couldn't see the target through the scope. "Follow the road up to the 750 yard targets. Ok, so go three mils past that, then about four mils left there's a big head-sized rock. On?"
I'm totally impressed with this one, wow. I never thought that a 22 caliber round would hit a target at 700 yards or 640 meters. It done a lot of damage to that coke can too which was equally impressive. Most people don't go past 250 yards or 230 meters with a 22 caliber round. Now I know why people love the 22 cal rifles. Fun to shoot and very economical.
Outstanding shots just to hit the plate. The problem with .22lr is that because of its ballistic profile, its Circle Area of Probability is huge at 700 yards. That is, with zero wind, a perfectly stabilized rifle & platform and a perfectly dialed-in scope, half the projectiles will inside of (and half outside) a 4 foot diameter circle. The better the shooter, the closer he or she will get that 4 foot Circle Area of Probability... and 22Plinkster is that good.
Boot Camp USMC: The 500 yrd target was the furthest we shot(and hit) prone position with M14s,spotter/no scope. With your lighter bullet and greater distance that’s one hell of a shot. Semper Fi 🇺🇸 thanks for another fun vid
I'm just surprised how much pop the little.22 had at that range. Enough to flatten a bullet on the steel plate and to open the can up pretty good. We all know.22plinkster is a phenomenal shot and I'm glad he acknowledged the luck involved. I've always said that if I could only have one firearm, it would be an accurate and reliable.22 rifle.
@@thankfullyredeemedmaderigh7436 I had a buddy that had a Marlon 66. He moved to eastern Kansas and we shot walnuts off of trees. That rifle was so accurate. Good memories.
Minutes of Angle is an angular measurement. 1 moa is roughly 1 inch at 100 yards. to hit a coke can consistently requires around 0.28 MOA assuming your wind reading is correct. the coke can is smaller than half moa at that distance. 1 moa at 200 yards is 2 inches, 3" at 300y, 4" at 400y etc. just posting for other people reading. 22plinkster said hes grouping 24 inches at 700 so 3-4moa is what the rifle is capable of at that distance, assuming the wind is not a factor 🤭
That rifle will do 0.28" all day long. So one m.o.a. at 700yds is 7". So 21"-28" would be m.o.a. at 700. Now, was this mostly just a game of luck? Sure it was. Do I believe that the guy did it with a factory, open sighted 10/22? Absolutely not. But the fact that plinkster put his money where his mouth was on camera for all to see and was consistently dropping. 22lr rounds in at 700yds is amazing and really goes to show the level of shooter he is. There are very few of us that could pull that one off. I've shot rimfire out to distance ( not 700yds) and it is absolutely not as easy as he just made it look. Awesome job!
@@DefZen343 this is correct. As a PRS and ELR shooter that trains with precision bolt .22, I can tell you a coke can at 700 yards is impossible to do consistently, especially since you’re stuck with factory ammo with low ballistic coefficients. Difficult shot with any rifle.
From what I watched and calculated, you had about a 18 foot cone grouping on average. At 700 yards with a .22 is pretty damned impressive. Cheers from Texas
I used to make some wild long shots with a Remington 581 bolt action, like 300 and 400 yard shots, with open sights. We duck hunted on an estuary and the neighbor kid had a Savage over and under 20 gauge and .22 on top, and we would shoot up into the bay to get the Widgeons to fly out where we could get a shot, and did that oven enough times, you got the feel for how much drop there was. I'm thinking of one shot at about 250 or more, first covering the bird with the bead, then raising about a foot. It was a kingfisher, which back in those days, you shot anything that ate fish. We shot a lot, and when not duck hunting, carried a .22 for crows, jays and fish eating birds. Not the same, but I did a neck shot on a turkey at 110 yards, leaning against a door frame, with my .22-250, right under the beak. Before I shot, I told myself, if I'm supposed to eat a turkey, I'll make this shot. People who do a lot of shooting make long shots. I barely shoot at all anymore, but when I do, I still make good shots, even without practice in between It's how you get growing up carrying a .22. By the way, I'd never buy anymore Remington ammo, too many no fires.
Congrats you both shooter and spotter great team. I saw you hit the plate early in the video. Great skills are needed to achieve that mark. Keep it up 22plinker, we need to make of it a nationwide challenge to bring more people and families to the sport.
Congrats!!!! Thank you for FINALLY getting this OUT of my head!! I was constantly wondering how possible this was, and how many it would take to zero in to the target. ❤❤❤
Well done sir give that man a cigar. When I gave up smoking in the late 70's I managed to destroy a pack of ciggys at 500 meters with a BSA Martini International Mark II lever action single shot rifle with peep sights, Eley Tenex and my mate spotting for me in the butts at Bisley. Then moved closer and used a S&W 6.5 inch Mod 29 at 200m to mince another pack of the cancer sticks again with open sights, this was in the good old days when we could own pistols in the UK and my eyesight was a lot sharper...
In defense of 22 man. It was super windy and one of those shots he was around 5ft off target when it hit the ground. And that was during the wind. I was shocked that the round even made it out there but it did.on video. I love these 22 comps btw:):)
Great shot pal. Like you said, "Anyone can get lucky once" but you showed multiple hits on that little steel target, and at 700 yards, that's quite an accomplishment. Take care my friend.
Yeah, and I like his explanation, sure it's gucci, but I had a spread of 2 feet on the same hold... With THAT! but anyone can get lucky. He made his case strong! Glad to finally see it happen.
@@drats1279 well in that case why don't ye post a video of you pulling off that shot within the same amount of shots after slamming a 6 pack. Would be fun to see
The first gun I shot was a 22 when I was a kid. And its why is still my favorite gun and why I still own a classic 1946 Marlin Model 39 Lever action the most accurate 22 lever action ever made.
To put that into perspective, the average persons step is 2.5ft, that means you would have to take 840 steps to make from the target to the spot youre firing from. Thats an INSANE shot. I have a little 22 bolt action single shot I love playing with and I'll go to a gravel pit with a 150 yard shot on it and plink at a 2 liter for hours. But even that 2 liter is an insanely hard shot
To put it in perspective most can relate to, many neighborhoods have 100 foot wide lots. This is shooting at a can on the far side fence line of the 21st house. Or if you are in a city with the 50 foot wide lots, you are shooting at the 42nd house lot line, or more realistically, probably the 6th house on the fourth block from you.
@@nickhadfield3192 Actually, that is only 2099.74 feet. And I bet most Europeans and Asians still can't relate to 640 meters, but they can to four city blocks.
Great Job! I still think “22 Man” confused 700 feet and 700 yards. There's no way that once he got out to the range with GT and all the other guys there to watch, he didn't realize that what he may of thought was 700yds, was not 700yds. He probably felt like he needed to stick to his story once he was there though.
Well he did see impossible things from far away and could spot stop signs and targets at that distance. Can't remember if he said he could see the coke can sitting on the post or not
Great shooting. Even with an excellent quality setup like you have for this shot, it still is extremely difficult. Seeing some of those shots hit the steel was insane. Great job!!!!
I had a Springfield .22 semi-auto about 40 years ago. Open sights. I could regularly hit targets about the size of a Coke can from 300 yards. Loved that gun. A lot of it is also just knowing the gun. I know 700 yards is a whole different ballgame but at the same time it doesn’t really surprise me. 7 football fields - yeah, a .22 can do that.
That was some very good shooting. I have seen video of mark (from Mark and Sam After Work, UA-cam) shoot a 20 inch square steel with a 22 LR at 1000 yds. I have also seen him shoot that 20 inch square target at a 1000 yards with a 30-30 Winchester lever action, iron sight, standing! And I am darn sure he could do it again. You and Mark both shoot at a level I can only dream of.
Hell, you'd be lucky to even SEE a beer can at 700 yards open sights. If he hit it.....I'd be the first to yell, Bullshit! That's one helluva gun you have there!
You wouldn't be able to see it because at 700 yards you would have to aim at least 45 feet above the can with open sights. You would only see the rifle.
Great perseverance! I have shot a 10/22 for 25+ years , and can say, the best I have done is quite a few squirrels at 150yrds with a 3x9-40. Any more is asking way to much from that capable rifle. I knew you could do it!
This reminds me of my 200 yard shots on a golf course trash can using a Daisy 880 air rifle. I made a custom rear sight from a soda can, just cut out a larger rear blade. I could consistently score hits on the trash can at the tee box, from the green, on a par 3 at 200 yards. The trash can was about the size of two basketballs, it was metal. I could hear the Dink when I hit it. I could hit it at 200 yards with that 880 with the custom sight damn near every time. With pellets, not BBs.
I know you probably wont see this or it mite sounds weird or even dumb cuz you dont know me but boss i gotta say I'm so proud of you man you persevered and got it done ! Keep it up plinkster you are maken a difference weather it seams like it or not buddy! I'm in the hospital watching this and it always makes me feel better seeing you do what you do boss ! Thank you for maken these videos litterly keeps me alive and going !!!
🎯🔥🙌 The man, the myth, the legend! This guy is truly impressive. Making a 700-yard shot with a .22LR rifle? That's mind-blowing! It makes you wonder if such a feat is even possible. I'm intrigued to learn more about the techniques and skills involved. This kind of marksmanship takes serious dedication and practice. It's inspiring to see someone pushing the boundaries of what's believed to be achievable. Kudos to him for setting the bar high!
I remember back in the 80's Massad Ayoob anchored a deer in Africa with a 4" 44 magnum at some insane distance, a lot of people gave him hell because they said a shot like that was impossible !!!! He wrote about it in one of the gun magazines {before accessible internet} !! Like Massad, you pulled off an incredible shot my friend !!!
LMAO! That was not long after the.44 Mag. was developed, and the shooter was one of the developers, Elmer Keith. The deer was in Idaho, wounded by a client Elmer was guiding, and Elmer hit him at 600 yds. The 4” .44 Smith and Wesson is correct.
What was the distance? Given how Fudds still look at "long range" as being 200 yards with a rifle, it wouldn't surprise me if they freaked out about 50 yards with a handgun. 100 is pretty doable if you put any kind of time in.
No it was Elmer, who was also a writer for Guns and Ammo at the time. It caused quite a stir that’s been talked about for decades. A pretty famous incident.

First let me say that was an incredible shot. To have any chance to be consistent at 700 yds with a 22lr a setup like that is a must. Now for the original story, the guy claims to be able to hit a soft drink can consistently at 700 yds on his family farm with a Ruger 10-22, open sights and standard velocity 22lr factory ammo. Your skill as a marksman is obvious. Doesnt matter what kind of equipment you have or even what caliber you are shooting, it takes real skill to group like that at 700 yds., where a 1/64" shake at the muzzle will translate to 3 - 5 ft downrange. I dont believe anyone can make that shot consistently at 700 yds using a stock 10-22, iron sights and factory standard ammo.
With a bone stock 10-22 and cci standard velocities it would be tough at 200 yds. With a very modified 10-22, hitting a coke can isn’t “every time” it’s about 70%.
@@sstrongman1667 exactly, and the guy in the original story said they had an old tractor that sat way out in one of the far fields on his family farm, and they used to sit out there eith a stock 10-22, iron sights and shoot cans off the old tractor with very few misses.
Good shot. I wanted to try this but I’m limited to 600 yards. I’ve been able to get on steel at that range, and like you said, the conditions play a very large factor. Besides that, I just don’t have enough elevation adjustment to go past 600. I thought about buying one of those adjustable bases, but they’re a little bit pricey. I saw Mark and Sam make a shot on steel with a 22 at 1000 which is what inspired me to try at 600. Mark seem to think a higher velocity round makes it easier, so if I try again, I’m going to use some velocitors.
@@Beardman56 I understand the conventional wisdom, but starting out subsonic, there’s just too much drop at 600y without using an expensive elevation adder, charlie terac or ivey adjustable base. I’m running a 30 MOA base, +20 MOA rings, with 34 mils of adjustment in the scope, and needing an additional 3 mils of holdover for 600 yards when shooting standard velocity 22lr.
A bullet drops from your hand to the ground, the same time as if fired from a gun at the same height. So a faster round will cover more ground over the standard falling time if that makes any sense at all
@@lindboknifeandtool you will never see high velocity ammo used in competition because it’s not as accurate. Breaking the sound barrier isn’t as much of an issue as when the bullet slows down from that speed. It messes with the trajectory
Freaking phenomenal shooting. I legit wasn't sure if 700yds with a rimfire was even mathematically groupable. The fact that you were keeping it inside of a couple of feet with a match build does seem to indicate that a stock 10/22 is going to end up being basically random. Hope GT sees the vid!
I am going to go out on a limb and say the guy that said he could do that with a 1022 and open sights over estimated his ability. Until he demonstrates this on camera I shall remain skeptical. I have tried my best not to call him a liar but it was a strain.
The guy said he used a very large object as a reference point. Instead of shooting at a small object, you shoot at a much larger object and control for what part of that large object is shot at. For example, you can aim at the moon. So long as you know the rough trajectory of an object, you can aim it at various parts of the moon and be accurate.
It's basically luck and math. If the rifle is capable of a small enough grouping at a set distance it's only a matter of time before the probability of a hit is done.
If I'm correct, I have heard that a 22 has been deadly out to a mile. That would be incredible by any standards. Just the drop rate would make nearly impossible. I'm old now, but I was trained in the Marines and the Air Force so I can hit targets using a rifle with open sights out to 6-700 yds pretty consistently. My last rifle shot was some 7 years ago and I hit a silver dollar size target dead center at 200 yards using Kentucky windage.
The man could clearly shoot. I think it's possible that he did a 200-yard with irons. Editing team did a good job not making him out to be a complete fool lol
22s go a long way, I grew up in the country with hills and lakes around, one such hill allowed us to overlook a good sized lake and swamp. We weren't very ethical as kids, so doing the right thing wasn't always done,, right. We'd anchor gallon glass jugs out in the lake and shoot from the hill top with 22s , I've been back there many times and took range finder readings. I discovered that we were shooting at nearly 8-900 yds. And we did it with and without scopes, burned through a lot of ammo, sometimes had to go back another day to get that hit. But we never gave up on a jug. Being able to see the bullet impact on the water, let us know if we were too high too low left or right. We learned to use certain trees in the distance to duplicate the hold over. Quite the celebration to make the shot, and we'd compete shooting side by side and and alternately. It was interesting how long it took for the bullet to arrive. We weren't aware of it at the time, so considering, earth rotation and all the natural influences, didn't matter. If you hit left, you shot further right and so on.
I've never been fortunet enough to own a Gucci set up like that,but I think Plinkster summed it up well,when he stated there were a lot of factors including some luck. The one fact that doesn't change is Plinksters avility to drive that rifle, or any rifle for that matter. He had done his homework on all the numbers in x,y and z. The man shoots for a living,and has the right equipment . Compared to the original 22 man challenge, its apples to oranges.Iron sights vs. a Cold shot scope mount with probably 60+ mil's of adjustment and actually being able to see the target, over raising the muzzle 18ft above the targwt and pulling the trigger. What Plinkster did required I WOULDNT WANT TO BE DOWN WIND OF HIM NO MATTER WHAT HES SHOOTING! Breath slow and carry on Plink!
For clarity: The second camera (the one on the target) was not seeing what neither I or my spotter was seeing. We were directly in line with the target, but the secondary camera was almost parallel to the target and 100 yards away to the left. It is confusing hearing us call out our misses, but you guys are clearly seeing something different because of the angle. I will do better next time. I just didn't want a flyer to hit my camera 🤣

Plinkster ...ever seen a 1940 naval issue stevens.22)410? If ya wind up in south Florida . I have some antique .22s id like ya to shoot. We can hit the range or hungryland or corbit. Id like to show ya some asian water monitor lizards id like to show fwc where to find em.
@@skeletonmakesgood
You calling 22 man a liar!??
The fact you hit the plate twice let alone the can is absolutely incredible. 🤘🏻
Looks like 3 times, not including the can which was in from of the plate. That means he hit 4 times inside an 8” plate in around 30 shots including sighting in.
AMEN my friend 👍👍👍
3 times.. the first time he hit it they didn't even notice lol
Accuracy by volume
Damnit. Spoiler!!!
Wow, the difference in the angle of the rifle barrel versus the scope is insane.
Damn right! More like aiming artillery than a rifle. Great job plinkster!
He should have used a Bud Light can.

Well done Dave, top man with a top rifle. I am truly enviously of you guys having all that real estate to have fun on. What a great country to be a shooter in.
I just wish we in the UK had half as much freedom to enjoy this great pastime of ours.
All the best from across the pond. 👍
Thank you for adding the little circles on the target camera for the shots that it managed to capture. I haven't finished watching the video yet, but even hitting the steel at that range was impressive.
Edit: And having watched the rest of the vid, that was even more impressive.
You are the king of 22LR. This was absolutely incredible. Great work.
That's just nuts, I don't care how good a rifle setup or how good the .22 ammo...a lot of skill, luck help from mother nature with the wind. Nicely done 👍
Set it up, nailed it, gone fishing...man you are a legend. I love it
Your Riton scope must have stunning glass for you to see those little dirt sprays at 700 yards. I need to play with one now... Killer shooting!
This is awesome. The more people do this long distance .22lr shooting, more people will come up with new ways and innovations to make the shots possible. Good 'ol technology just keeps progressing.
Best I have ever done is 500 yards and hit a 14" steel plate with my 22lr. I was THRILLED to do that. I cant imagine backing up another 200 yards and making the target that much smaller. Congrats on that shot!
500 yards is a LOOOONG way. Did C zone steel with a friend of mine years ago with his pimped 10/22 and we had to rely on each other working as spotters to make hits, because you couldn't see the target through the scope.
"Follow the road up to the 750 yard targets. Ok, so go three mils past that, then about four mils left there's a big head-sized rock. On?"
I hit a wood chuck at 350 ish with my 17hmr a few years back.
I'd be happy to hit the broad side of a barn at 700
I can hit a target at 700 yds with my 22lr with practice its easy
@@shaunault7538 theres a split second where you can use the force to sorta guide the bullet
I knew you would pull this shot off, great job, the fact that you could even group that far with a 22lr is crazy.
Outstanding shooting! Impressive! I really enjoyed this. Thanks for bringing us along.
God bless all here.
I'm totally impressed with this one, wow. I never thought that a 22 caliber round would hit a target at 700 yards or 640 meters. It done a lot of damage to that coke can too which was equally impressive. Most people don't go past 250 yards or 230 meters with a 22 caliber round. Now I know why people love the 22 cal rifles. Fun to shoot and very economical.
Outstanding shots just to hit the plate. The problem with .22lr is that because of its ballistic profile, its Circle Area of Probability is huge at 700 yards. That is, with zero wind, a perfectly stabilized rifle & platform and a perfectly dialed-in scope, half the projectiles will inside of (and half outside) a 4 foot diameter circle. The better the shooter, the closer he or she will get that 4 foot Circle Area of Probability... and 22Plinkster is that good.
Circle area of probability is a good way to word it for people who don't know MOA, I'll have to remember that
Boot Camp USMC: The 500 yrd target was the furthest we shot(and hit) prone position with M14s,spotter/no scope. With your lighter bullet and greater distance that’s one hell of a shot. Semper Fi 🇺🇸 thanks for another fun vid
That was a legendary shot. Truly remarkable.
legendary??? Some of my Army and Marine Corps buds would have dispensed with the coke can with open sights in under five shots.
I'm just surprised how much pop the little.22 had at that range. Enough to flatten a bullet on the steel plate and to open the can up pretty good.
We all know.22plinkster is a phenomenal shot and I'm glad he acknowledged the luck involved.
I've always said that if I could only have one firearm, it would be an accurate and reliable.22 rifle.
Miss my old marlin. Popping black walnuts all OVER the farm.
@@thankfullyredeemedmaderigh7436 I had a buddy that had a Marlon 66. He moved to eastern Kansas and we shot walnuts off of trees. That rifle was so accurate. Good memories.
@stevenlewis6781 Good comment Steven, to see that amount of energy left in the rimfire at 700m says respect our small calibre.
Man!!! That’s one HELL OF A SHOT!!! I couldn’t even imagine trying it!
3-4 MOA at 700 yards is insane. Especially for the ammo.
Moa does not mean what you think it does
@@spearthumb68 Why, 21-28" spread sounds about right. Probably a bit more.
Minutes of Angle is an angular measurement. 1 moa is roughly 1 inch at 100 yards. to hit a coke can consistently requires around 0.28 MOA assuming your wind reading is correct. the coke can is smaller than half moa at that distance. 1 moa at 200 yards is 2 inches, 3" at 300y, 4" at 400y etc.
just posting for other people reading.
22plinkster said hes grouping 24 inches at 700 so 3-4moa is what the rifle is capable of at that distance, assuming the wind is not a factor 🤭
That rifle will do 0.28" all day long. So one m.o.a. at 700yds is 7". So 21"-28" would be m.o.a. at 700. Now, was this mostly just a game of luck? Sure it was. Do I believe that the guy did it with a factory, open sighted 10/22? Absolutely not. But the fact that plinkster put his money where his mouth was on camera for all to see and was consistently dropping. 22lr rounds in at 700yds is amazing and really goes to show the level of shooter he is. There are very few of us that could pull that one off. I've shot rimfire out to distance ( not 700yds) and it is absolutely not as easy as he just made it look. Awesome job!
@@DefZen343 this is correct. As a PRS and ELR shooter that trains with precision bolt .22, I can tell you a coke can at 700 yards is impossible to do consistently, especially since you’re stuck with factory ammo with low ballistic coefficients. Difficult shot with any rifle.
As always, great patience and shooting. Well done.
From what I watched and calculated, you had about a 18 foot cone grouping on average.
At 700 yards with a .22 is pretty damned impressive.
Cheers from Texas
I based my calculations on a 16 inch wide plate. Looking again, it seems like the plate is smaller than that. Please correct me if I am wrong
6 inch plate? Brings that cone to about 9 feet. Can being center.
Very cool
Still incredibly impressive!
@@charlesmckinley29 absolutely. I couldn't do it.
I used to make some wild long shots with a Remington 581 bolt action, like 300 and 400 yard shots, with open sights. We duck hunted on an estuary and the neighbor kid had a Savage over and under 20 gauge and .22 on top, and we would shoot up into the bay to get the Widgeons to fly out where we could get a shot, and did that oven enough times, you got the feel for how much drop there was. I'm thinking of one shot at about 250 or more, first covering the bird with the bead, then raising about a foot. It was a kingfisher, which back in those days, you shot anything that ate fish. We shot a lot, and when not duck hunting, carried a .22 for crows, jays and fish eating birds. Not the same, but I did a neck shot on a turkey at 110 yards, leaning against a door frame, with my .22-250, right under the beak. Before I shot, I told myself, if I'm supposed to eat a turkey, I'll make this shot. People who do a lot of shooting make long shots. I barely shoot at all anymore, but when I do, I still make good shots, even without practice in between It's how you get growing up carrying a .22. By the way, I'd never buy anymore Remington ammo, too many no fires.
Amazing channel, amazing shot, underrated caliber. Enjoy your day fishing! 🎣
Such a great video. Suspense and Win! Thanks for showing all of the shots and not just the hit.
Congrats you both shooter and spotter great team. I saw you hit the plate early in the video. Great skills are needed to achieve that mark. Keep it up 22plinker, we need to make of it a nationwide challenge to bring more people and families to the sport.
Beautiful shot. Thanks for making this video.
Congrats!!!!
Thank you for FINALLY getting this OUT of my head!! I was constantly wondering how possible this was, and how many it would take to zero in to the target. ❤❤❤
Takes a lot to amaze me but i am legitimately flat out amazed!!! Fabulous job 22plinkster! 👏
What an incredible shot! I never would've guessed that you'd come within a country mile of that coke can, but you nailed it!
Congratulation!!! This is some of the best content on the web. Keep up the good work Plinkster we love it.
Always an Amazing Watch. . . and yes I was one of those guys hoping you’d take it up as a challenge. Thank You!
Man that's a beautiful rifle.. the sounds of the action sounds butter smooth.
Well done sir give that man a cigar.
When I gave up smoking in the late 70's I managed to destroy a pack of ciggys at 500 meters with a BSA Martini International Mark II lever action single shot rifle with peep sights, Eley Tenex and my mate spotting for me in the butts at Bisley.
Then moved closer and used a S&W 6.5 inch Mod 29 at 200m to mince another pack of the cancer sticks again with open sights, this was in the good old days when we could own pistols in the UK and my eyesight was a lot sharper...
In defense of 22 man. It was super windy and one of those shots he was around 5ft off target when it hit the ground. And that was during the wind. I was shocked that the round even made it out there but it did.on video. I love these 22 comps btw:):)
That was one out of 500. Send enough rounds and one will eventually hit. In reality, .22 Man never had a chance.
It was more like 5 yards not 5ft
if were talking about the gt 22 man im pretty sure he shot like 10 rounds
22 man did not shoot this many rounds.
Holy crap that was amazing!!!! 24 inch spread at 700 yards!! Crazy!!!
Really amazing shooting. He's the man to do it.
Congratulations on making such an incredible shot!

I don't know if 22 Plinkster can hit a can at 700 yards, but for us he will be the OG "22 man"
Great shot pal. Like you said, "Anyone can get lucky once" but you showed multiple hits on that little steel target, and at 700 yards, that's quite an accomplishment. Take care my friend.
I’m sort of speechless. You are a ridiculously skilled shot my friend. I don’t care how Gucci the set up was that was damn impressive.

That range is EPIC. I am so jealous.
I'm really impressed at the energy the 22LR had at that distance.
i knew you could do it! Nice shooting!
To put that into perspective, the average persons step is 2.5ft, that means you would have to take 840 steps to make from the target to the spot youre firing from. Thats an INSANE shot. I have a little 22 bolt action single shot I love playing with and I'll go to a gravel pit with a 150 yard shot on it and plink at a 2 liter for hours. But even that 2 liter is an insanely hard shot
To put it in perspective most can relate to, many neighborhoods have 100 foot wide lots. This is shooting at a can on the far side fence line of the 21st house. Or if you are in a city with the 50 foot wide lots, you are shooting at the 42nd house lot line, or more realistically, probably the 6th house on the fourth block from you.

I still think “22 Man” confused 700 feet and 700 yards.
There's no way that once he got out to the range with GT and all the other guys there to watch, he didn't realize that what he may of thought was 700yds, was not 700yds. He probably felt like he needed to stick to his story once he was there though.
This definitely makes a lot of sense. Would be a sh*tty move if he backed out after GT flew him in.
Yeah, no way it was 700 yards. With a 7.52x39, it's still 40 feet of arc. I called bullshit at the first video
Well he did see impossible things from far away and could spot stop signs and targets at that distance. Can't remember if he said he could see the coke can sitting on the post or not

Great shooting. Even with an excellent quality setup like you have for this shot, it still is extremely difficult. Seeing some of those shots hit the steel was insane. Great job!!!!
I had a Springfield .22 semi-auto about 40 years ago. Open sights. I could regularly hit targets about the size of a Coke can from 300 yards. Loved that gun. A lot of it is also just knowing the gun. I know 700 yards is a whole different ballgame but at the same time it doesn’t really surprise me. 7 football fields - yeah, a .22 can do that.

That was some very good shooting. I have seen video of mark (from Mark and Sam After Work, UA-cam) shoot a 20 inch square steel with a 22 LR at 1000 yds. I have also seen him shoot that 20 inch square target at a 1000 yards with a 30-30 Winchester lever action, iron sight, standing! And I am darn sure he could do it again. You and Mark both shoot at a level I can only dream of.
Hell, you'd be lucky to even SEE a beer can at 700 yards open sights. If he hit it.....I'd be the first to yell, Bullshit! That's one helluva gun you have there!
To be fair he had much more wind on garants shooting range.
You wouldn't be able to see it because at 700 yards you would have to aim at least 45 feet above the can with open sights. You would only see the rifle.
Couldn't see a keg of beer at 700yrd definitely can't see a can. Maybe after about 12 beers you think you can shoot that good with open sights😅

Great perseverance! I have shot a 10/22 for 25+ years , and can say, the best I have done is quite a few squirrels at 150yrds with a 3x9-40. Any more is asking way to much from that capable rifle.
I knew you could do it!
Proof of Principle established, 22 Man is The Man. I believe!
Dude!! You are officially the .22 King!!
This reminds me of my 200 yard shots on a golf course trash can using a Daisy 880 air rifle. I made a custom rear sight from a soda can, just cut out a larger rear blade. I could consistently score hits on the trash can at the tee box, from the green, on a par 3 at 200 yards. The trash can was about the size of two basketballs, it was metal. I could hear the Dink when I hit it. I could hit it at 200 yards with that 880 with the custom sight damn near every time. With pellets, not BBs.
That shot would be very hard with the wind, mirage, bullets, and etc..... but nice shooting!!
Wow that definitely is a heck of a shot! With that dirt field I wonder if you could use the 10/22 and start short and work your way up to the target?

🎯🔥🙌 The man, the myth, the legend! This guy is truly impressive. Making a 700-yard shot with a .22LR rifle? That's mind-blowing! It makes you wonder if such a feat is even possible. I'm intrigued to learn more about the techniques and skills involved. This kind of marksmanship takes serious dedication and practice. It's inspiring to see someone pushing the boundaries of what's believed to be achievable. Kudos to him for setting the bar high!
mark and sam after work do this sort of thing. Aussie too
I remember back in the 80's Massad Ayoob anchored a deer in Africa with a 4" 44 magnum at some insane distance, a lot of people gave him hell because they said a shot like that was impossible !!!! He wrote about it in one of the gun magazines {before accessible internet} !! Like Massad, you pulled off an incredible shot my friend !!!
LMAO! That was not long after the.44 Mag. was developed, and the shooter was one of the developers, Elmer Keith. The deer was in Idaho, wounded by a client Elmer was guiding, and Elmer hit him at 600 yds. The 4” .44 Smith and Wesson is correct.
What was the distance? Given how Fudds still look at "long range" as being 200 yards with a rifle, it wouldn't surprise me if they freaked out about 50 yards with a handgun. 100 is pretty doable if you put any kind of time in.
Are you sure that wasn't Ross Seyfried?
No it was Elmer, who was also a writer for Guns and Ammo at the time. It caused quite a stir that’s been talked about for decades. A pretty famous incident.

You hit the coke can with in 50 shots, didn't you?
GREAT SHOT!
🎉😂
This was the most exciting thing I've ever seen.
Thats an incredible shot! Very well done.
First let me say that was an incredible shot.
To have any chance to be consistent at 700 yds with a 22lr a setup like that is a must.
Now for the original story, the guy claims to be able to hit a soft drink can consistently at 700 yds on his family farm with a Ruger 10-22, open sights and standard velocity 22lr factory ammo.
Your skill as a marksman is obvious.
Doesnt matter what kind of equipment you have or even what caliber you are shooting, it takes real skill to group like that at 700 yds., where a 1/64"
shake at the muzzle will translate to 3 - 5 ft downrange.
I dont believe anyone can make that shot consistently at 700 yds using a stock 10-22, iron sights and factory standard ammo.
With a bone stock 10-22 and cci standard velocities it would be tough at 200 yds. With a very modified 10-22, hitting a coke can isn’t “every time” it’s about 70%.
@@sstrongman1667 exactly, and the guy in the original story said they had an old tractor that sat way out in one of the far fields on his family farm, and they used to sit out there eith a stock 10-22, iron sights and shoot cans off the old tractor with very few misses.
His shots were pretty comparable to his guys 10k setup. Not that hard to believe.
Good shot. I wanted to try this but I’m limited to 600 yards. I’ve been able to get on steel at that range, and like you said, the conditions play a very large factor. Besides that, I just don’t have enough elevation adjustment to go past 600. I thought about buying one of those adjustable bases, but they’re a little bit pricey. I saw Mark and Sam make a shot on steel with a 22 at 1000 which is what inspired me to try at 600. Mark seem to think a higher velocity round makes it easier, so if I try again, I’m going to use some velocitors.
Generally higher velocity 22 is more unstable
@@Beardman56 I understand the conventional wisdom, but starting out subsonic, there’s just too much drop at 600y without using an expensive elevation adder, charlie terac or ivey adjustable base. I’m running a 30 MOA base, +20 MOA rings, with 34 mils of adjustment in the scope, and needing an additional 3 mils of holdover for 600 yards when shooting standard velocity 22lr.
@@jcnikoley as long as you didn’t go over the speed of sound you should be fine
A bullet drops from your hand to the ground, the same time as if fired from a gun at the same height. So a faster round will cover more ground over the standard falling time if that makes any sense at all
@@lindboknifeandtool you will never see high velocity ammo used in competition because it’s not as accurate. Breaking the sound barrier isn’t as much of an issue as when the bullet slows down from that speed. It messes with the trajectory
Freaking phenomenal shooting. I legit wasn't sure if 700yds with a rimfire was even mathematically groupable. The fact that you were keeping it inside of a couple of feet with a match build does seem to indicate that a stock 10/22 is going to end up being basically random. Hope GT sees the vid!
You know there was a random text message with zero context
"Done."
Amazing shot, congratulations
OUTSTANDING SHOOTING Dave
I am going to go out on a limb and say the guy that said he could do that with a 1022 and open sights over estimated his ability. Until he demonstrates this on camera I shall remain skeptical. I have tried my best not to call him a liar but it was a strain.
well he tried and failed on the GT channel
It was luck, probably did it only once
I think he just overestimated the range by a huge amount. He might be able to make some sick shots with a 10/22, but not the one he claimed.
The guy said he used a very large object as a reference point. Instead of shooting at a small object, you shoot at a much larger object and control for what part of that large object is shot at. For example, you can aim at the moon. So long as you know the rough trajectory of an object, you can aim it at various parts of the moon and be accurate.
I feel like the portable bench may have been the weak link in the setup. I don't believe anyone else could have made the shot off that wobbly thing.
It's basically luck and math. If the rifle is capable of a small enough grouping at a set distance it's only a matter of time before the probability of a hit is done.
Sure, there's was luck involved. But, man, does it take a lot of practice to get that lucky!
Luck favors the prepared mind AND individual; he is both.
Add some gusty wind and it is pure luck to hit a sheet of plywood at that range.
I will never understand why you don’t have atleast a million subs by now. Been watching your for years!
Excellent.. looks like a new shooting sport has just been launched.
That's incredible. Would be cool to see this in super slo-mo to see what the bullet is doing at that distance
If I'm correct, I have heard that a 22 has been deadly out to a mile. That would be incredible by any standards. Just the drop rate would make nearly impossible. I'm old now, but I was trained in the Marines and the Air Force so I can hit targets using a rifle with open sights out to 6-700 yds pretty consistently. My last rifle shot was some 7 years ago and I hit a silver dollar size target dead center at 200 yards using Kentucky windage.
yeah cool story bro
I think the .22 man’s range finder was in feet not yards. Still a 230 yard shot is impressive with a .22 but way way way way more realistic
The man could clearly shoot. I think it's possible that he did a 200-yard with irons. Editing team did a good job not making him out to be a complete fool lol
22s go a long way, I grew up in the country with hills and lakes around, one such hill allowed us to overlook a good sized lake and swamp. We weren't very ethical as kids, so doing the right thing wasn't always done,, right. We'd anchor gallon glass jugs out in the lake and shoot from the hill top with 22s , I've been back there many times and took range finder readings. I discovered that we were shooting at nearly 8-900 yds. And we did it with and without scopes, burned through a lot of ammo, sometimes had to go back another day to get that hit. But we never gave up on a jug. Being able to see the bullet impact on the water, let us know if we were too high too low left or right. We learned to use certain trees in the distance to duplicate the hold over. Quite the celebration to make the shot, and we'd compete shooting side by side and and alternately. It was interesting how long it took for the bullet to arrive. We weren't aware of it at the time, so considering, earth rotation and all the natural influences, didn't matter. If you hit left, you shot further right and so on.
Congratulations Dave!!! Amazing shot!!!
I call BS on Mr 10-22 guy. Lucky? Sure. Whatever
Lose the tunes!
You're a legend man.
Really cool video, glad you put that camera down range really gave it context for how far it really is!
I've never been fortunet enough to own a Gucci set up like that,but I think Plinkster summed it up well,when he stated there were a lot of factors including some luck. The one fact that doesn't change is Plinksters avility to drive that rifle, or any rifle for that matter. He had done his homework on all the numbers in x,y and z. The man shoots for a living,and has the right equipment . Compared to the original 22 man challenge, its apples to oranges.Iron sights vs. a Cold shot scope mount with probably 60+ mil's of adjustment and actually being able to see the target, over raising the muzzle 18ft above the targwt and pulling the trigger. What Plinkster did required I WOULDNT WANT TO BE DOWN WIND OF HIM NO MATTER WHAT HES SHOOTING!
Breath slow and carry on Plink!
