Most ACCURATE RIFLE in My Collection 

Don't apologize for long informative conversation. It's actually enjoyable to get your perspective in all of your gun videos.

The video quality is exceptional in this episode. It would be great to see pics of the target.

Nice to hear the rain in the video. Gorgeous rifle, and no you never talk too much. It’s very enjoyable to hear your take on the various firearms. Cheers.

I'm an avid hunter and shooter from South Africa and really enjoy your channel especially your humble approach and modesty. A gentleman.

Always nice to see something different and of quality on your bench. Thanks for sharing and keep them coming.

You have done a miracle in raising the audio quality. Thank you.

Thank you dear sir! I so like when I get to see a Swedish rifle. Best regards from Sweden.

I have a 6Br with a Batt Action, Custom built by DQ Gunworks, best group I ever shot was 2 inches at 600 yards. The world record is .333 of an inch at 600 yards, it was shot at MSSA just outside of Memphis.

Hilarious -- "one hole" with a hand-held rifle rested on a wood bench and a foam bundle. That's better than I used to be able to shoot in N-East winter bush-league benchrest shoots with my bought-used remington single-shot 6ppc and the whole gamut of Hart front rest and sandbag at the rear. That's a really neat rifle, was fun to see and hear about, and I think a whole lot of us are very happy to hear you talk.

I’ve heard of that rifle brand but have not seen one yet!! That ctg is about as good as it gets for accuracy , in fact it holds several world records !! Unique action and bolt system!!

Jim Borden built my 1k yd BR rifle. It has a Jewell trigger set at 2oz. It’s chambered in .300 Borden Caribou (.300 Wby Imp) and is a dream rifle. It’s a right bolt, left port which works well for me. Of course it is a single shot. Jim made the dies with the same reamer he cut the chamber with. He made threaded dies and dies for my arbor press. I don’t shoot BR these days but I do like to shoot paper and prairie dogs at extreme ranges. BTW I have a Nightforce scope on top of the rifle. I sent the scope to Jim and he mounted it on the rifle. I visited his shop and it is a machinist’s dream. All CNC machines to make his actions and stocks. He’ll put the barrel of your choice on his actions. His rifles have won lots of BR competitions over the years. He also builds hunting rifles to BR standards. Works of art in my opinion. Great video as usual.

I look forward to every one of your videos! Thanks!

Those great old spring steel Weaver rings give away the age of the Leupold scope :-) When I was a young shooter in the early 1980's all we could get were Weaver aluminum bases and Weaver steel rings. Who remembers how the scope would cant when you tightened ring screws down? So you'd set the reticle at say 11:00 and then once tightened the reticle was at 12:00. And if you put the rings onto the bases with the takedown nut on the other side, you started the reticle at 1:00 and tightened down it would be at 12:00. As frustrating as that could be, no one ever had a scope slip once that 1" wide spring steel strip was tightened down. Thanks for showing that great old Wichita rifle. What's it worth today?

Another episode full of learning for me. Thanks!

The ppc holds a lot of records at a thousand yards as one of the most accurate cartridges ever

As always superb explanations, introductions filled with gentle charismatic comments makes your channel Sir one of my favorites.

The vintage leupold on the yellow rifle looks amazing, used to practice a lot of bench rest with a norinco 22lr cz452 clone and chinese optics putting all the shots on a 5 cents arg coin at 50mts, very relaxing sport

I've had 2 6ppc, and 3 6mmbr, I don't know if the br is better but the best group I've ever shot was at 200 yards with a factory sako75 varmint in 6ppc 70g sako ammo,, love ur videos and ur collection,

My dear man! Indeed the 'Prince of the Gun' ! Touching on one of my favorite shooting interests. I am a long distance (600 - 1,000 yard) rifle shooter, (200 -300 meter) iron disc / silhouette handgun shooter. However, I'm not truly a benchrest shooter, and may indeed become one sooner because of you!

Always enjoy your presentations. I was never a match shooter but I did plenty of bench rest when improving hand loads in my sporting rifles and even pistols. A couple of sandbags and a good spotting scope helped out. Making sure the loads and the rifles were the best they could be took away any doubts in the field about what (or whom) was causing a miss.

Wow! Lovely rifles. Benchrest discipline is quite popular around the world. It’s a way to drive and push the accuracy further. The 6PPC round is fantastic for that work. I enjoyed your video. Thanks.

great video. I'd love to see more range videos in the future if it's feasible

True rifle passion in 4K! Greetings from Varberg, Sweden

If you are hitting bull's eyes you are evidently doing something correctly. Great video.

I know Joe Ponto! I’ve bought some parts off of him and picked them up at his house. He does some incredible work on rifles.

Give urself a break... thank u for sharing with us.. u do a fine job... thank you...

Production of the Varberg moved to Kongsberg in Norway but eventually fizzled out, possibly a late consequence of the post Chernobyl hunting bans in Northern Europe. The Chernobyl disaster appears to have cast a very long shadow over European gun making and sales. That is why you will also see this action with the Kongsberg name on it.

I generally don't punch holes through paper to measure group size so I can't say definitively which guns of mine are the most accurate one(s). What I can say is that I used my Winchester 9422 to replicate a trick shot I saw on the History Channel show Top Shot. In the episode they were shooting at cotton swabs set at 25 feet away with a really fancy 10/22 target rifle and scope, and my stock rifle with bulk .22 ammo did that challenge repeatedly like it was nothing. Anyways, thank you for sharing those interesting guns.

Awesome video 👌 thanks for sharing us your rilfes

Another great production Mike. Thanks. I would have loved to shoot a super accurate rifle back in the day. I like that Varberger.

Man, don’t hesitate to ramble on about calibers, provenance, ballistics, whatever- us the gun owners love a good talk(just look at 380 vs 9, or 270 vs 308 forums)… It’s knowledge that you share, and that’s what we are after… and the rest already probably here for the aesthetics of the firearms they can’t own, research to find out more before buying, trying to compare with another firearm, get someone else’s opinion on how they like this or another firearm- don’t hold yourself back with this videos, we don’t get enough as it is…

Great video. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and enjoy learning about different firearms on your channel.

Thats an amazing peice of equiptment! Benchrest rifles are really quite interesting machines. P.s.- i watch you specifically for the talking, keep up the great work!

The comments bellow say it all! The best gun channel ou RU-vid by long shot!! You do great work Mike every video agas improved, getting better every time! Take care!

Yes...range videos ..!!... I enjoyed... Thank you for your great videos..

Cool rifle. It can't miss being canary yellow. I do some bench shooting at the outdoor range here in Florida. If I put a round on the paper I call it a success. :-).

Nice video. Keep up the good work.

Hello ,Mike your video intrigued me ,I was lucky enough to find a Wichita mini in great condition . I will keep you posted of my build progress ,it will be a 222Rem . I haven’t selected a smith yet ,but I am driving distance of some very good ones . Great Video and a very cool rifle action . Good shooting

Anytime I need to relax smile and unwind I watch a USOG video

I would enjoy hearing about the challenges of inletting a stock to accept an action from a different maker. Thanks for another interesting video Mike.

Nice to see something I haven't heard about before.

Awesome ! thank you for the videos , Keep 'em coming !

I had an Anschutz 1422, that i bought secondhand to use against bunny's, took it to the range with a variety of ammo to zero it in, and it was unbelieveably accurate.

I have a nice collection of Remington 40x rifles. Super accurate.

Thank you for another excellent video. That seems like a sweet shooting cartridge. I saw a few Varberger and Lakelander rifles. Built like tanks. If it is possible, please do a video on the Varberger. Thanks again.

Great video! (As usual)

Beautiful rifles another awesome video‼️

I'm using safety glasses most of the time of my working days, my method to keep them from fogging up: 1. breath into them till they are fogged, then polish them with your shirt or a cloth 2. wear them, don't take them off. That works at least for me. Great video, as always, the benchrest rifles are highly fascinating machines in my opinion.

Usog must have got that rifle at a good price because it has such a "personalized" stock.

Can't go wrong with Swedish steel!

Beautiful looking varmint rifle , Thanks for the show & tell .

Sweet! I still have a .22ppc Ruger No. 1 from the early 90s, and a recently built 6mm ppc on a Stiller action. The Wichita actions are great, too.

Thank you!!

Thanks for sharing your videos and keep them coming please.

Thank you sir. You have shared some info that has value to me.

The 6 ppc is the most common round used today. There are others but 6 ppc has been king for decades.

I have a blast with benchrest shooting using 22LR.

Another great video.

Again another Great video, a small tip keep ur glasses on top of your head when not needing the for safety, this keeps them warm and at your body temperature, then when it comes to wearing them they wont fog up as quick. Worth a try.

Thanks for introducing the Wichita 6 PPC. The caliber is new to me. That stock is rather odd. I like your Varberger.

Cool video thanks.

Thank you for the video, great content.

I had a single shot Sako in 6mm ppc years ago and it was the most accurate factory rifle I have ever owned. Using the factory Sako ammunition I shot several less than half inch 5 shot groups at 200 yards. I could not put a hand load together that could shoot better than the factory load, I foolishly sold the rifle .

Beautiful gun! I have a similar looking rig(old school) in 223. It was a 222 before the benchresters went to 223. Herters laminate stock,Canjar set trigger,shilen barrel(1x14 twist,maybe 16) Sako l461 Vixen action. It one holes with 40 gr Sierras and Bergers. I'm the second owner and it's become my favorite rifle.

Great show my friend 👍

Thanks for the video and please do more range shooting, but show us the groups.

No worries. You look great behind that rifle man.

Hi Mike hope you're looking after yourself and keeping well. Very interesting upload it seems that some guns are flavour of the month and if you you wait a while you buy brilliant performing guns that have fallen out of favour in the endless pursuit of a better performance some of my guns are more than 40 years old and I have long since given up hope of Olympic gold or even a county title but just enjoy shooting is that wrong should I be striving for perfection or just having a good time regards as always from beautiful north Wales

Oh course you have a 6ppc! I really got a kick out of that fact I love your diversity in the firearms you cover and just recently got to shoot at a benchrest competition(with a borrowed rifle) myself. They are truly amazing and a complex and art. Thanks for he video!

The PPC family of cartridges are probably the most accurate and consistent benchrest rounds the world has ever seen or ever will.

That Wichita Rifle Is Amazing I’d Love to Have It For ELR Shooting USOG 😮😮😀😊👍🏼

I'd like to see more target shooting with the rifles that you show. If you can employ another camera at the target end, then so much the better. I do enjoy shooting single shot, I think it teaches us to be a little more accurate,...... hopefully :)

The Varberger is in the Lakelander family isn't it? I got the Norwegian Kongsberg 393 variant, I got it used for about 475usd in todays economy a couple of years ago. It's in 9,3x62 caliber, but I'm thinking of getting a new barrel in 30-06. Very accurate rifle. I got some feeding issue with the rotary magazine in mine, I need to press down on the forward part of the bullets when they're in the magazine to lift the back of them so the bolt pick up the cartridge, or else the bolt will just slide over it. This could also mean that the magazine is mounted slightly off. If it's possible to rotate it a little I don't really know as I'm lazy. I also need to fix the three position safety as the bolt can be manipulated with the safety in locked-bolt position. Probably a quick cleaning of the locking pin would fix it.

Dude ramble on I enjoy it !

I own a Wichita 1375 Palma rifle in 308 match. Last time I brought it to the steel gong range, I was repeatedly striking ten inch gong with iron sites with my handloads 500 yards. Wichita makes a fine action sir! Wichita Company moto is something like: A day at the gun range is never wasted. Lol

Thanks for reminding us of the neat things of our youth. Nolan Jackson made those in the 1970s just after he founded Wichita Arms. As far as I know, he was the only source of parts and still owned Wichita Arms when he died last August. The 6mm PCC has 35-grain case capacity with a 1:14 twist rate limiting it to 70-grain bullets. It can't compete with fat twist 6mm guns with 50 to 60-gran case capacities shooting 6mm bullets weighing as much as 115-grains. It would still be a great gun for 300 yards and would win a lot of 500 & 600-yard matches if you do your part. Have David Tubb put a 6 XC or 6mm Creedmoor barrel on it and it might win anywhere that didn't require rapid-fire.

Sad story of the end of Varberger and similar as ggood other ones like the Krico also.

It’s probably been asked and answered many times but what’s the meaning behind USOG? Thanks for another great video!

Certainly nothing wrong with using a Tasco scope. I have a few, and love them. Probably the best budget priced scopes on the market.

Love your channel and the excellent way you share information.

Thank you.

I like this dude. Very knowledgeable we could def have some interesting convero

Benchrest rifles are as close to mechanically perfect as possible, and any reputable builder can make a rifle capable of placing all of its shots in one hole at 200 yards in still air. What makes a winner in benchrest matches is the shooters ability to read the wind. The 6mm PPC is still the king when it comes to accuracy at 100 and 200 yards.

I sqw one of the auto ejecting, single shot, .22 rifles you showed us (winchester i think, model 55 mayne?) on gunbroker for sale about a month ago. I wished i had the money for it, cause i would have snatched it up in a second

Hi there, I like to see more bench shooting from you and next time showing the targets you are shooting at, Thanks 🙏

We in the south call that water coming out of your head sweat, most times it comes out when it's hot lol

I have question for first gun. The locking mechanism for bolt is that bolt only or have in inner bolt on barrel have too sir ?

Bench Rest shooters are at the technical edge of the rifle shooting sports. Rail Bench Rest guns are even more accurate and cost up to tens of thousands. F-Class and Bench Rest are probably the two closest rifle shooting sports, but there's even quite a bit of difference between the two. 6PPC, 6 Dasher, 6BRA, 6BR are all great cartridges for the bench rest sport.

It takes some work to get the bolt release to fit in the stock, but you don't really want to hear about that stuff. Yes, yes I do want to hear about that stuff! I love the outside format videos.

Iver Johnson AMAC-1500 another rifle with this action. love your videos brother!!!

Well I just checked my Hornady loading guide (a must when I watch your videos🙂), and they sure speak highly of the round. I don’t know if I asked you this already or not, but have you done any videos on stocks, and how to switch them around or modify them? I fell in love with a 357 single shot rifle, with I believe a falling block style action. I can’t stop thinking about it….so it must be love. Hell, I don’t have a clue what I’d even do with it. But it’s a left handed stock, complete with check piece, so if I just used it as is, or ground down the check piece, it would be kind of narrow where my cheek would rest. Should I get a new stock, or can I use it as is? Like is there a curve like in some shotguns?

You are so wrong.....I would LOVE to hear about how you fitted that Remington 700 stock to the Varberger. It looks very well done and elegant on that action. If you ever want to make a video series about your gunsmithing adventures I'm sure there are others that would enjoy watching. Thanks for this great content and your genuine way of presenting material. Really enjoyable to watch.

Nice video and Nice Rifle. I have a semi custom Sako 75 in 6mm ppc USA I use it for foxing and Roe deer it is an amazing Rifle and round with a 70 gn Nosler ballistic tip . Out of interest what is the weight of the factory sako ammunition?

Please check the neck size of a loaded round in the bench rifle with a micrometer. The neck diameter of the chamber should be on the barrel. You need at least .001” clearance! 🙏

The 6mm PPC replaced the 222 as the preferred bench shooter. I believe it's the most popular today.

The 6ppc holds many records at 300 yards, keep shooting them you'll really start to see what they are about, I still plug along with a 6BR Norma round on the bench........ they are just fun to shoot !!

Some of the best reloading information is made by benchrest shooters

Varberger is also relatively unknown in the Nordic countries. the company went bankrupt in the mid-90s. then it had been manufactured in Finland under the name Lakelander but also in Norway under the name Kongsberg. The rifle was sold with a guarantee - three shots at a hundred meters would be covered by a quarter. Otherwise you got your money back. I own a .308. mostly to show younger that new does not always make you a better shooter or hunter.

A very interesting bolt action. Do you think a falling block could be as accurate? I bet that stock is designed to be cut to fit the individual shooter?

please review Voere Vec-91, caseless ammo and electronic ignition hunting rifle !!!
