doubleA Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) Decided to video the other day. This was taken at mid day at 600 yards with a 308 Win. This video stuff is new to me but is getting easier. Thinking about using a couple of cameras in the future. Anyone have any tips?

doubleA Posted January 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Thanks ya'll! I am starting to get the hang of editing so here is another one at a different part of the day, just before dark. Sorry for the cheesy music, I am a newbie :-)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Thats awesome shooting. I struggle to hit a target that size at 400 yards with my .308. I need a better scope for that kind of shooting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dartonman Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 I couldn't imagine if you let the barrel settle in and shot them any slower on how deadly your accuracy is......if you shot them one after another like that, with consistant hits at 600 yards....you are the man....great little rifle.........al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 Super shooting Charlie! Good Vids also. Kind surprised the bullet did not penetrate the plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddyboman Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 great stuff!! Kinda shocking you go prone to shot..... But its obviously something you do often! Great set up you have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man knows his guns and how to use them VERY well. But I am going to bet he has that gun sited in and loaded with the best possible round he can make. So with a good solid rest, very little wind and a known distance I bet YOU could take his gun and hit those plates a couple times out of 5 shots.....Maybe not all 5 like he does however. Charlie I do not mean any disrespect by this comment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie I do not mean any disrespect by this comment. 01-06-2010 12:15 PM No disrepect taken........This is true and I do shoot alot, average of 2-3 times a week and know what my equipment is capable of. I have friends and alot of youth that I teach that with the right stuff and a little instruction it's within their reach to shoot well at extended ranges. A couple of years ago my wife was hitting 6 inch plates at 500 yards the first time out with a 308 that I mistakingly had the scope set at 4.5 power. My oldest daughter fired a 5 shot group that went a 1/2 inch with her 1st try with an AR-15 and she asked what's the big deal. Have youth shoot a 50 BMG fairly well without ever firing a rifle and so on. Again, with the right equipment and instructions shooting can be made easier for most. People find it amazing to be able to dial in elevation and windage and t hit various distances with the first shot. It really boils down to hands on experience and practice and more practice and if I can say having "intimacy" with your equipment. I make it a point to shoot in any and all conditions, it doesnt matter if the wind is howling or raining cats and dogs, it's the only way to learn, you cant learn it from a book. The day the video was taken winds were changing a bit, 0-3mph quarter value so no big deal. I am truly blessed to be in a position where I can offer this for others. It's a work in progress on my reloading room but it is also a blessing to be able to handload and see instant results. I do enjoy bringing youth/parents from my church, having fellowship and teaching them things about the outdoors and shooting sports that they would otherwise miss out on. In the end though, it's not that hard but then again it's not that easy, in the short videos everything is condensed and might be misleading to some.

Strut10 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Cool video, Deuce!! You'd fit right in at an OTPG event if you ever decide to come on over to "the dark side". Of course we shoot at a good deal smaller plate at 600 and there's considerably less hang time between "bang" and "clang', but................

ousoonerfan22 Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Wow! that's impressive!!! What power is your scope set on when shooting at that distance? Trigger pull? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleA Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Wow! that's impressive!!! What power is your scope set on when shooting at that distance? Trigger pull? Scope is a Leupold MK 4 4.5x14 and works well at that range. Use it at max power most of the time if mirage isnt to bad. The trigger is right at 2 1/2 lbs. Of course we shoot at a good deal smaller plate at 600 and there's considerably less hang time between "bang" and "clang', but................ I get it...ya'll shoot at them :pacman: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
