Iv been using these for over 20 years
Impressive to hit a 1000 yd target with a cheap factory rifle and factory ammo with only 15 shots or so down the tube. Would be more interested in seeing how it groups after the barrel is broke in at 500 and 1000 yds to know whether this is actually a sub MOA hunting rifle...
Growing up my dad would make these using a balloon as the reed on the film canister.
Got 1 of thoes in 30:06. 5 different ammos. Was printing 18 inch @ 100 yards. Sent it back TWICE & it never got any better. Never got reimbursed for shipping either. Finally traded it for a brake job warning the man it shot lousy. HE finally used its bbl as a grounding rod hammered into the ground for his generator. The LEAST Ruger could have done was replace the bbl. Their " 50 yard test targets" printed 2 an inch apart & the 3rd 4 inches low & 4 inches R..@ only 50 yards. They knew that unit was a POS & they never fixed the problem. Lost a lifetime fan for life. Their customer service sucks. Damn shame too. I bought 2 mini 14s when they 1st came out. Running serial #s. 1 shot 1 moa @ 100. The other was all over the place. Returned it. 2 weeks later it came back w a new stainless bull bbl & that unit put 5 in the same hole. But that was back when the old man was still running the company. Gone downhill since.
Been using that app few years, new phone Google Pixel wouldn't let me get the app had buy it again on my Motorola tablet,goggle say banned, Russian app
Nice
Came across your video after watching frogman tactical first time hearing the use of the ballistic calculator and the way that you went through things super cool I will be tuning back in to check out some other stuff great video!
Completely understand and agree. Thank you for your leadership. I enjoy both the training and the witnessing. Great job. Jesus paid for us all. So, we keep loving and praying for the blindness to be removed. But, John 3:19 is true just as you described John 14:6 Jesus is Lord
. I agree with him on many things. One thing I do not agree about is the scope. Spend money on the scope. If you buy a Vortex and spend over $1000, they will guarantee the scope for life. That will save you money over time. Let me be more correct. This guy is not saying what is best, but what is budget. On that I agree.
links for the torque wrench, rifle vise, and level system please?
I would have gone with a vortex optics there just as good as leupold gold ring but cheaper price and same quality and better warranty life time no questions . I have a pair of vortex binoculars that had a little tumble off me boat to the drive way a good 7 feet free fall ended up knocked one of the lenses loose inside the tube I sent them in and they sent me a new pair no questions no charge
well that sucks you have to be a member of a union to enter to win so i guess us that dont have unions are S.O.L.still a nice rifle and good info
Strelok and Strelok Pro are not currently available Anyone know how i can get my SP back that i paid for ? I liked that app, simple layout, full featured
Just build a DB10 in 20" 6.5creed for under eight and have a semi auto.
You like the 6.5 over the .308?
A new subscriber from Canada, simplified and right on. Ruger has gone a long way from their origin and can't go wrong with a Leupold.
Long list before leopold gets my money Vortex does great for about 1/2 the cost of leupold. And after that i step up to Nightforce, US optics, even a UHD Vortex before leupold. Have several buddies that are fairly serious shooters and money not withstanding consideration….. a couple of them chose a top of the line vortex over schmidt and bender/steiner…. Other very expensive very nice glass I just use the appropriate night force ATACR optic for my build.
I wonder if anyone has considered buying one of those rifles in 7.62x39? My buddy has a decent amount of components for them as in annealed unfired brass, fmj ,and quality primer. Those cases are the building nlocks for PPC stuff and his theory is the cist if the rifle is free becayse he already has the other stuff. It should be interesting to find out what accuracy he will get.Since he can set up the projectile closer to the lands on the first go, it could be better than one might expect.
thats impressive, back in 2003 we shot at 200, 300 and 500 yards with iron sights and all we were taught was about windage and elevation. No temp or barometric pressure stuff was important in the Marine Corps.
This was brilliant my friend. Went to outdoor range today, rainy, cold but I zeroed in my .308 and it's such a good feeling. This is an amazing project 1Kyds for 1K$. I love it. You're a good teacher and everything was made clear (I've never mounted a scope!) Keep going with the great videos. New subscriber.
I entered and put the Carpenters Local out of New Orleans. I'm not an active member, but was a Carpenter and paid my dues in the 90s. Now I'm on disability, I don't want y'all thinking I'm a liar, and yes I was injured on the job when I was in the Union.
Excellent video. It reinforced what I think I knew about mounting a scope. The shooting and ballistics was all new and super info. Thank you.
Good video, but you need to loctite the pic rail .
Excellent presentation in proper sequential method
1000 😮🎉😊
Great video. Thank you
I just found this channel & video earlier this morning & was very impressed with the content. As a decent shooter with little long range experience I found it easy to understand & now I want to build one of my own. I am looking at Leupold's website & see a Freedom VX that is made specifically for the 6.5CM. Would this be a better scope to get for the caliber or would a more generic one suffice? I also just entered the contest so maybe my questions will be moot.
Righty tighty, lefty loosy boss lol just messing with you. Great video! Thank you. I would also stress how important it is to have the proper height of your scope, from center of barrel bore to center of scope tube That hands down is crucial for everything in ballistic calculation besides fps 👍
Though manufacturing processes have become nearly foolproof I still witness mark ring caps to bases BEFORE separating. No chance of interchanging or flipping 180° out (they're line bored before caps/bases are split). Will also bed the rail to the receiver (if needed) and use blue Locktite on the screws AFTER degreasing . I ALWAYS check ring alignment with dowel rods (WHEELER kit) and lap for 80%+ contact if I deem necessary. SOP in the military was to torque in 3 steps to final value. Waiting 5 minutes and lightly rapping ring cap screws after torqueing (with the plastic handle of a screwdriver) removes "thread tension", then check final torque one last time. A little "extra" in the beginning goes a long way to preventing problems down the road.😊
Great video man. Thanks and keep them coming!!
Super, donate 10K of that rifle setups to UA!
I moved here to the US a year ago and have been getting more involved in shooting sports since then. For me, this is a very good video 💯 Thank you for the good content 👍🏻
Not bad, I'm looking for an entry level AMERICAN MADE RIFLE for under $1,000!! Thanks for sharing and I love the lighting, audio and the different camera angles you'll did!! The scope was the best angle when you were aligning the scope in the target!!! Thanks for the chance to sign up and win this bad boy AMERICAN MADE RIFLE!! Do you have a video on the calculator? That is awesome, & very impressive. Hitting it at 300, 500 and 1000 yards. ‼️💪🏻🔥🙌🏻
I’ll be waiting at the door on the arrival of that rifle 😂😂 ! No BS aside that would be sweet !! Enjoyed the hell out of this video ! 💪👍🏼
Sweet !!
correction on "americasn made" leupold isnt... they are designed herew not made here... try swamp fox opitcs, desi9gned sourced and made right here... unlike others who "claim american made anmd are justt american designed."
One little thing I might suggest, kinda rough up that scope on the base lightly. It will help that scope maintain its fit better once you start using it. Just a light scuffing. Great video though.
Barometric pressure should be the elevation dependent station pressure.
S.M.A.R.T. local 16 member right here bud. Oregon
That’s awesome! Let your union know you appreciate their support for our videos!
That's a great setup and on a budget too. Thanks for sharing! God Bless.
If ya cant hit an 8 inch plate it’s not a shooter , you know this . Huge targets at 1000 is KZreadr targets - but the real shooters are laughing.
Great video.
Terrific presentation. Very informative .
Fantastic video! We have capabilities available to us today that were only dreamed of not that long ago. I would like to add something if I may. Putting Lock Tite on the scope mounting screws acts as a lubricant while it’s wet. This allows much more torque to be applied to the screws than what the driver can detect. If you use Lock Tite, I would suggest not torquing to specs to avoid over tightening and possibly stripping out the threads.
I'm impressed with this video. I purchased this scope a while ago to see how it would perform at the price point and it was as good or better than any scope, I had for more than a decade. To be able to watch a step-by-step video, from box to 1000 yrd steel, was worth watching a few times. From Box to Bang to Bing, AMERICAN AWESOME!!!
you missed the 1000 yard shot
Great video.
Hmm, my thinking like all thinks these days leupold is outsourced to japan AND china!

Shake a bottle full of pills and the hens will come running! West Virginia mating call.
Great video and all American!
