This is what gives American shooters a bad name, you obviously haven’t taken the time to understand how to shoot the rifle accurately at distance, having to figure out hold offs from an app. No keeping record of shots, calling wind values, 1/2 vs full. I would be embarrassed to post a video like this, as would any serious marksman! Do yourself a favor, practice first, learn how to dope wind, keep a data book on all shots taken...

Hey gregrn779 - you are one miserable individual. Spent many deployments as an Army sniper - unless you have Mark 4 Leupold with T3 turrets with BDC ranges, or MOAs come ups written down in the scope lens cover - then there is nothing wrong with looking up come-up’s from IPhone or notebook or whatever. You talk a lot of smack - I would like to see in how many seconds you would come up with firing solution - mill dot ranging and wind call correction in MOA for man size target at unknown range. Good video bro, keep on shooting.

Ok Thanks. And thanks for all the good videos,I really enjoy watching them. A lot of excellent information for shooters like us!

Pity you do not have one of the fantastic Burris ELIMINATOR 3 scopes mate. I have one on my Tikka Super Varmint Stainless in 6.5 x 55 se. I hold on my target, push the button, hold the little red dot on the spot where I want to hit and squeeze of the shot. Never miss. Also using the 123SST @ 2980fps. Scope has hash marks which give close to perfect hold off for wind if you use wind measuring device. Never have to worry about adjusting the scope, just push the button and its goodnight. Our rabbits would be similar to your Woodchucks, maybe just a bit smaller, but I consistently take them with head shots at 800yds. I want to eat them not leave them in the paddock. Wish I had a camera though.

Nice work!!! What mobile program are you using to determine MOA???

The Hornady ballistic calculator. I’ve had pretty good luck with it on all sorts of calibers. I use their basic calculator instead of the 4dof calculator.

How do you calculate moa if you have the yardage ? Trying to get into long ranges only dighted in at 100 yrds

@ChuckinTV

I use the Hornady ballistics app. You will need to know you’re velocity and bullet ballistic coefficient. And you have to punch in the right environmental factors.

Watching this on my 3x5 phone screen there's too much pixelation to fully appreciate the field adventures, was able to see some of the bullet trails mid flight though. My 6.5 CM slams steel, bucks n pigs, it's my go-to despite other choices in the rack both heavier n lighter.

That’s what it’s perfect for. It should never be used on valuable big game at that distance. It doesn’t carry enough energy. The 6.5 Credmore was designed to punch holes in paper at distance. That makes it a good varmit round.

I like your videos because you show the misses too. Most cherry pick only the hits. Have you tried the .204 ruger yet? Its a little better than a 22-250 on windage 4200 fps. Its almost no recoil yet hits hard. 0-400 yards

Thanks. I haven't messed with the 204. I'm not really sure if I will unless I get sponsored one. I have nothing against it. It's just that I already have the 22-250 and 243 as designated woodchuck rifles. Plus I hand load everything. All the other rifles you see on this channel are excellent deer rifles that we go chucking with to get real world practice. I appreciate you checking out these videos and commenting on them.

Yea if you hand load you have more options. I buy off the shelf and for the money the .17 wsm, .204 and .223 are the cheapest to shoot. Like 23.00 box of 50 for .204 and 11.00 box of 50 for the .17 wsm. I don't have enough time to handload barely enough to shoot.

That is the main benefit to small calibers that you mentioned. Even 22-250 is close to a dollar a round for okay stuff. I do enjoy loading my own, but it eats up a lot of time. There isn't anyway I could afford to shoot as much as I do If I didn't load though.

Yea once set up handloading you can make almost any caliber cheap. I tend to shop for the cheapest round then buy the gun for it. The 22-250 is nice but for some reason the .204 was cheaper off the shelf for ammo by a factor of 2x

David Mccann a gut shot is inevitable in certain circumstances and this is one of them. And with the caliber we are using, a gut shot would still result in basically instant death.

When shooting at 600+ yards we both hold mid body for the most part. If the chuck is standing we hold at the top of the head as “most” of our loads if they are going to miss, they will kiss low. This is something that we’ve discovered over YEARS of shooting at these things.
