Cool seeing this at k&m.. Shannon was my lead instructor at a army advanced long range marksmanship course i took back in 06. He was a staff sgt back then.
Very cool video! I am interested to see what results pro shooters get for this kind of distance. I went at the local range to shoot at 300 meters yesterday and with my preferred match ammo I got 5 shots inside about 3.5 inches So I was pretty happy since it was only my 3rd time trying out the 300 meters range, but I did not have to stress to move at all, just sitting, and no time constraint either like you, so great job guys, you rock! Inspirational!
A $20 dollar bill is just over 6 inches in length, so I would put those groups at closer to 0.8 MOA. Still great shooting by all 3, and fun to see how accurate the pro's are!
They were closer to .7-.8MOA for sure. We didn't have a ruler downrange but we should have. Staying under 1MOA with the movement and improvised positions involved in these stages is pretty tough in reality. No so hard from a bench though.
Great video! I wish we could get gun owners and military personnel who don't compete to shoot this as a comparison to show how good competition shooters are.
EXCELLENT VIDEO !! / EXCELLENT EXERCISE !!.....Non reactive MAKES a guy trust in his equipment & videoing gives solid feed-back with breakdown for a completely finished exercise. AWESOME practice !!
What an awesome idea for a video I would love to see this turn into a bit of a series and have some shooters dialling elevation put in the mix. Possibly then compare it to a new shooter or intermediate. As always top work.
@@humorss The mag probably wasn't loaded. He was most likely doing a dry run. You can see at 4:08 when he sets the rifle in position that the bolt doesn't move at all. Still, a very smooth action
@@shootinbruin3614 .....bet'n you are right, but, I don't agree with dry runs being allowed, especially after being introduced to that at the last match I shot at,......though a complete novice saying, for what it's worth,....it did make me appreciate the challenge that way.
They are shooting at 1,5 inch dot at 500 yards. 1 MOA at 500 yards would be 5 inches. I think they did exceptionally good, managing to shoot less than 1 MOA a that range quite a few times
Depending on your application, we offer our Oryx, Field stock and XRS chassis. They are a great value and price point. They will all give you a ridge and solid platform for your action
Suppressors slightly increase muzzle velocity and can positively effect harmonics and ease the transition from the barrel to the air. But poor suppressors can reduce repeatability with a loose mount. On the other hand, in a PRS environment, they can slow you down moving the rifle and they don't reduce recoil nearly as much as a brake, which can effect your ability to call your own shots and increase time to recenter for follow up shots.
Of the random testing I've seen, you will get a poi shift from bare buzzle to mounted suppressor(which is obvious) but once you re zero to the suppressor, the accuracy should be exactly the same. There is debate if you will gain or lose some fps with a suppressor but it's really gun and suppressor dependant but overall any increase of decrease in velocity is negligable (10-20fps max) which ammo variances could also be the culprit even with perfectly weighed powder charges. My 2 cents 👍
most PRS open division rifles are 6mm caliber, Cartridge varies. (6BR, Dasher, XC are very popular.) Some still shoot 6.5 creedmoor or 6 creedmoor as well.
This is relatively impressive but can’t help but note how much simpler it makes life when your rifle weights a tonne! Would like to see these guys in some practical hunting situations too just to see how they stack up, say quad sticks at 250
The point is to have less recoil so they can maintain a site picture on the target and track their round so they can adjust. Can't do that with a 300 win mag, or even a non braked .308 lol.
Andy Slade is running our Comp Brake. For 7mm PRC, you can go with our 308 brake and you will need to select the thread pitch size that is on your barrel.
It's about 3-4 inch group for the first (and best shooter) if you exclud the two shots down left... The dot is 0,15 moa. These groups are not 0,5.. But i'll never shoot that good anyway 😂
I mean, these guys all compete and place well in competitions at the level of the PRS Finale, they are some of the top shooters in the sport by literal definition
Certainly the featured shooters are skilled, but the PRS matches are no more than a hyped game of golf. They don’t encounter significant “stressors” that would challenge more accomplished shooters.
This is the shooting world's version of Gay Fit..I mean, Cross Fit. 2" diameter barrels, 4 pillows, 3 portable benches, and a tiny 6mm bullet. Come on. 😂 you better be accurate and hit inside a 2" circle. Its even worse than geared Powerlifting with 3 and 4 ply suits and knee wraps adding 150lbs or more to the lift. It has the mandatory monkey suits, the cool kid tattoos and the trendy beards..hell, some of the competitions even have Women in them.
@@equalleftrights3130 sure didn't. All competitive sports evolve to find the maximum level of performance possible under the constraints of the rules in place. PRS is simply a competitive sport that has evolved toward high precision and accuracy dictated target sizes that allow for some amount of system error (wind, temp, velocity etc). The top level competitors achieve 85-95% impact rate gear that is within the constraints of the rules. Your initial description of PRS is obviously meant to stoke conflict. Barrels are .9-1.25" contour, no pillows these days but usually one support bag, we don't carry benches but occasionally they are used as a props by ranges/MDs. We do run 6mm but that is trending back towards 6.5mm. Your opinion is of course yours to voice as you see fit, however, the reality of PRS is it teaches how to build fast, stable positions and learn to read the environment at long range. Those skills translate to every manner and form of rifle shooting. Good luck and shoot well!
10-shot groups from a bench group over a 5min span from one spot and a 5 position PRS stage from props on paper with no feedback on target are *slightly* different....
Come on wheres the tape measure to see exact group size. I wanna see this exact test again except at 100 yds and you guys all shoot the same course of fire
