Love the series. Shooting jugs is one thing but realistic long range shots in varying conditions is more real world. I have had several long range shots in the past with extreme upward and downward angles. My results were less than stellar. I would like to see you make some long range shots in these scenarios and get some tips on how to improve my shooting. If you hunt the west, you will come across these kinds of shots often. Keep up the good work and thanks for making this series.
Great series. Absolutely enjoy it and the information you share. I'd like to see extreme uphill or downhill. Not sure what you have available there though.
I dont know if you have terrain that would allow a steep vertical shot, either up or down or a cross canyon long range shot. Sometime elk will get into some nasty holes. Thanks for the content. Really appreciate you shooting in all different types of weather. When hunting we don't get to choose the weather.
@@elevationrifles this is insane in my opinion, I live in Italy and we can shoot only in proper shooting sites with supervisors, we can't even shoot in our private property, and this is maybe a little too much, but shooting next to the road with people passing by is not for a civilized country...no surprise you end up on the podium of incidents and deaths every year world wide...
Enjoy your videos! I’d love to see a shot with some elevation involved. Either up or down and explain what the bullet does when shooting uphill or downhill.
That was a great shot. I would suggest standing with rifle resting on a tripod and range out to about 600. That is an epic shot and not unheard of in some areas out west. Great series. Thank you.
Enjoying these so far, but I'd like to see you shoot from more realistic and varied field positions like you did in #4. Standing using a tripod is one I've had to do at 400yds. Sitting using a stump for a rest or other improvised shooting positions are just part of hunting, we don't always get to go prone if we're looking over brush, fences, or swells in terrain.🙂
Awesome shot!! Have your son set your bag down somewhere in the field. You stay by your truck. Bull of a lifetime. Your bag is the only shot you’ll have. Run to the location. You have fifteen seconds to send it. Actually have him mark the spot with a flag. You have to run with your pack and rifle. Real as it gets. And that is fifteen seconds when you reach the flag not when you start the run.
I like watching this kind of content ,as I have never used the tactical scopes and I am learning. So showing how to hold for wind ,and how to read the range finder, I bought a leupold RX1600 and I am having a hard time reading what it is telling me, the boxy letters seem weird. the simple stuff that you take for grant ,I may not know. So is the 2 minutes you held to the right for wind of 4 miles per hour equal 18.88 inches if I am right. This is all good stuff.
Off hand anything would be good, how many times do you get the luxury of setting everything up , a lot of times it’s point and shoot, just my experience with hunting pigs in Australia, been a great series mate have enjoyed watching and learning along the way, take care and stay safe cheers Yogi 🤙✌️
I still hunt decommissioned skid roads in pacific northwest. Standing offhand is a massively underrated skill. Lots of blacktail killed 30-100 yard with not a second to spare.
Why, this isnt a challenge about shooting an animal at close range. This is about how reliably you can hit vitals at long range. This is to show that long range hunting shots can be repeatedly and ethically made. A standing 100 yd shot is kind of off topic for this series.
Need a rear rest that you can pack around in the mountains? Check out the ..

Great shooting! Thanks for the video!
I would like to see offhand to 200 yards at 50y increments
What a shot!!
If possible some shots with uphill and downhill variation would be helpful

Good shooting
Love the challenge! Quartering away shot behind brush would be interesting. Keep up the great work.
Again I really appreciate your effort. I really enjoy the videos. Maybe do a three shot string. To see how you group.
Please test temp stability of various powders. Nobody really does that. I think it would be pretty interesting. Great videos on long range shooting👍

In US you can really shoot from the side of the road with car passing by????? Dang....something is really messed up there...this is crazy.
I do it all the time :) We’re I live we are pretty limited to long shots . To get 950 that’s were it ends up.
Why is this messed up?

I’m just curious, do you have your drops memorized? Or does that rangefinder calculate the drops?
Rangefinder is programmed and gives me the dial to in MOA

Get with backfire and see if you can both do this challenge in Utah
Good sound advice there good kill shot enjoyed your video👍👍
I'd like to see you do it with a 308 to see a comparison between a more standard caliber compared to that 7ss

Right on. Standing tri pod for Shot 10. Or shots 11 and 12 at 600 ish in the next series. How does the Short Sherman compare to 28 Nosler???
28 is around 150 fps faster
@@elevationrifles - So we are talking beyond the 7PRC here
i left you a comment as requested.
How far off the road were you?
Test with some ballistic gelatine on these ranges. So, which hits of this challenge would be deadly?
Put a camera next to the Target and put something that'll show the impact like a balloon or milk jug
Shoot at an angle. Ie quartering away or quartering to. The way you have to aim a bit different.
Use a folding chair & your pack for a 650 yard field type of shot where you can't lay down or have a great position to shoot from like it is for real
Did you see the guy on youtube with a 300 Norma & 1 hole group ?
Молодець 😮
These are all cold bore shots right?
What kind of Nightforce scope are you using
What's the energy at that range?
1200
You're gonna get chiggers laying out like that

Standing at 100 yards off hand would be cool

Go on backfire and do the actual challenge
I’d totally do it ;)
