Hey Mate, you will use less rounds, if you sight in with a group, instead of trying to do single rounds and adjust it to the bullzeye, shoot 3 rounds and adjust from the centre of the group. you will have more luck and save some precious ammo. trust the clicks on the scope to do thier job. Thats what they are for.
👍👍
Yeah, everybody has their own method, but I have always been taught to shoot a 3 shot group, adjust, let the barrel cool for about 5 min, and shoot again. I've also always been told to use sandbags, but again, to each his own.
@@MutarFuqueer yeah, you can definitely chase you tail, especially if the ammo / rifle combo wont hold the yardstick 3 in an inch at 100. Wasn't too long ago , 3 in 3 at 100 was considered hunt ready for deer and up.
You are an honorary Australian now.
Thanks for the shoutout mate.
I'll take it!
I’m a 7mm man for many years. 280, 280 Ackley, 7 mag. The last few years 7mm-08 is fast becoming my “go to” in hunting and shooting. Love it. If you get a Browning, budget a trigger. Theirs are rocks even after adjustment
Underrated caliber for sure! Thank you for giving it some love!
More love soon!
ABSOLUTELY Way underrated cartridge. It really comes into it's own with the new powders and bullets, in a platform with the appropriate magazine and barrel length.
@@stevepuyear2738 looking to get one. Any recommendations on twist rate and barrel length?
@@jonnybgoode7742 I guess it depends what it's main purpose will be. Mine was strictly a hunting rifle for deer, gophers on occasion. It was a 24" 1:9" twist that shot everything well from 120gr Ballistic Tips to 154gr SST.
@@stevepuyear2738 hunting rifle. First rifle and I kinda want to cover the bases but still throw a bullet on the heavier side. Twist rate was my biggest question seeing as how the only options I can find are 22 and 20 inch.
I really like the fusion bullets I have always had great results out of them out of my 300 win mag and 30-06. I always get the 180grain and my rifles preform excellent with them, I get quick 1 shot humane kills when deer hunting and almost always drop the deer in their tracks. My 30-06 produces 5 bullets in the same hole at 100 yards and the 300 win mag produces a quarter size group at 100 yards
If your wanting to shoot 1000yrds with a 7mm i recommend jumping up to a 150gr or heavier bullet. I have best results with 160-175gr bullets. Good video
162 grain ELD-M
@@kurtwpg Yup, I'd rather have a 7mm-08 than a 6.5 Creedmoor..
@@johnganshow5536 yeah I like 7mm-08 for everything . But 6.5 is good for targets at 1,000 yards
@@urinesoakedtroglodyte5764 Google 7mm-08 at 1,000 yards, it's one of the best, so is the 243 which is what the long range champ uses..
Happy Thanksgiving
And this is about to be a really fun video
Can't wait until you take it out to 1,000 yards
Always fun watching the videos man, definitely always level the scope. And have never tried federal fusion
Just started hunting with a Thompson center venture 7mm-08 this year. I think its my new favorite hunting caliber. I reload my own ammo using hornady sst bullets. They performed amazingly well on the 3 does ive shot so far! I've always had okay luck with federal fusion in all of my guns but they've never been a tack driving bullet. If you're shooting long range id highly recommend getting in to reloading. If not, I'd go with a more premium match grade round. Those groups will be a quarter the size when you find what that gun likes :) my American 223 shoots 1/3" groups at 100 yards all day! It amazes me every time I shoot it.
Great deer caliber, especially in a little Remington Model 7.
I used a Remington 700 Varmint Special in 7mm-08 for several years in the ‘80s for metallic silhouette matches. The 140gr boat tail would knock over the steel ram targets at 500 meters without problems.
I’ve used Federal Fusion in 308 Winchester and do have a few of my buddies and we’ve all had good luck with it. Awesome video Bro.
My savage 308 loves the 165 grain fusion
WTW, when you adjust your scope try going 1 click past and comeback. Sometimes it matters.
Thanks Jack
I’ve noticed that sometimes too!
I’ve had mad mojo with 7mm-08. Bought a used cva hunter and the throat is shorter than an ant. Factory ammo jams the lands. Ended up buying a Remington 700 magpul in 6.5 creedmoor. Loves 140 grain federal fusion.
The hardest working man on RUclips does it again........ Nice job! 👍🏼
🙏🙏🙏 thanks for watching!!!
Love my 7mm08 from the 80s it likes the Rem 140gr corelokt. Never tried them 120s fusion..Great caliber for deer n more 👍
Thanks for watching Gary
The second shot was picture perfect man! What a bummer about the scope. Would've loved to see you finish the sighting in one shot deal but I understand. Time and ammo haha
Love the 7mm-08 with 162 eldm fantastic round
This would be a good caliber for white tail instead of the 50 cal.
True
The Savage 110 comes in a variety of Cal's,not 50bmg.
@@hammerheadms he did say 4 - 5 hundred yards
I have a T/C Venture All-Weather and love it. I also shoot & hunt w/ Federal Fusion 120’s. I get sub MOA at 100 yards with them and they’ve performed well for me hunting.
The 120 s at about 3 k velocity that’s why they work like a Barnes. Go for the shoulder
I was looking for some rounds to break my 25-06 barrel in when I first got it and I thought about the Fusion ammo. I talked to a guy that has shot bout every type ammo on the market he told me the fusion ammo didn’t get the best groups now. So I waited till I got my 25-06 put together and it’s shot Nosler ballistic tips every since. Never had a factory round shot through it and as long as I am able to reload and can get Nosler ballistic tips it never will. I’m just going by what this guy told me now. He never lied to me about anything.
Well my son took 2 deer this season with the Federal Fusion. One heart placement went 15 yards. The other double lung went about 70 yards leaving a path all the way. Both were inside 60 yards so not a long shot but he freehanded both so I would say the product works pretty good. It was a 6.5 Creedmoor though. I’m looking mighty hard at 7mm-08 for my next rifle but with 2 6.5’s and a 30-30 I don’t “need” another one esp given we mostly have 130 yard or less shots. I really like the ballistics on the 7mm-08 and almost wish I had talked him into buying one. Good stuff.
I have never used fusion but have had to help track several deer where fusion expansion wasn't great and made for a long track. I'm a hornady interlock guy myself. I also hunt with a Weatherby 7mm-08 and love the caliber.
Fusion s are like shoulder shots need bone to open
Always had good luck with federal. I've found the regular blue box to shoot dead on with just about any gun. Give it a try. We've all had the scope to the right or left. Awesome video as usual.
Thanks for watching Gregory
You have to remember the farther out you go even the slightest amount your off at your sight in range that will be x10 at a 1000. And with the drop of the bullet you could go thru a boat load of ammo and not get close to the target. Does this rifle have a 20MOA rail on it? Most hunting rifles don't come with this feature you may run out of adjustment at 1000 yards with this scope. For long range.shooting I'd suggest having a individual that is familiar with mounting long range scopes on rifles set it up for you or at least guide you so it's spot on. Good luck long range shooting is fun and challenging at the same time.
I am familiar with shooting long range myself 🤪🤪🤪
Great caliber. Underrated IMO.
I have often considered it. I either went 7mm RemMag or 308. I would get a 7mm08 over a 6.5 Creed. Enjoy. If you are able to get them, Hornady Precision Hunter is a 150gr. ELD-X or Nosler Trophy Grade is a 140gr. Accubond. Great B.C. & not bad for hunting for sure.
Recreational shooting is an excellent way to spend Thanksgiving. Happy Thanksgiving, Who_Tee_Who!
Absolutely! Happy Thanksgiving!
Love my 7mm-08. Pet load is 140 Sierra GK over 42.2 gr. Varget. Devastating on whitetails.
🦌🦌🦌
I’m a big fan of the Ruger American rifle. It’s been a work in progress for a while, but my RA 22-250 drives tacks and smacks hard. These “cheap” rifles (although not cheap here any more) can be made to shoot well with a bit of effort. Great video again. Cheers. Nick from Australia.
I have had good luck with them. Yeah they used to be less expensive
You'll be very happy with the Zero Tech scopes , very good value for money ! Great video too 👍
I like em so far
Also check your mounts and scope rings for Tightness sometimes when a gun is being fired the scope moves
Looking forward to your long range videos on the 7MM 08
Me too! 🤪
love that ammo my self. work on holding your rifle more secure and you need more shots before adjusting to get a real accurate center of the group then adjust the scope to the enter
Very popular deer round here in alberta. In my 308 those federal fusion 5 round group all touch at 100. Great ammo
My 2506 likes them
Very nice buck
Nosler factory 120's work great in my Ruger American 7mm-08 but my handloads with 150 gr ABLR work even better
Got to love 7mm-08.
Absolutely
Good shootin. I like the Federal fushion. Havent shot it threw a 7mm 08 but i bet ya do fine
Who-tee-who
Awesome !!
💥💥💥
My method for sighting in is very basic. Put one round after bore sighting. Adjust cross hairs to exactly where the bullet hit. Next round is usually dead center.
My ruger hates fusions but loves 140 core lokt 🤷🏼♂️. Great caliber though.
Did you ever find a type of ammo it liked? I've had the same issues with a 7mm-08.
Gotta get me one them scopes with a lot of "zooms."
More zooms!
Great video
Thanks for watching Michael
Try a video with remington corelock 140grain. My dad's ruger M77 7mm-08 loves them and so does my 7mm. Would be a great video to compare the 2.
Good idea
I run Fusion but in 140 grain out of a Savage Hunter out to 1200 yds at a friends range
Wonder if theres a kit to make this rifle aics magazine compatability. 7mm08 is a great caliber here in wv mountains. But would love to have aics mags for it
I am going to try one of those Zero Tech scopes. I have a 7mm Mag that needs a little better scope than whats on it, and I think it would be the perfect candidate for one. You were talking about the scope being cantalated over, and not exactly straight. Had that happen to me before, as well. easy to do. Bought a 243 one time, and it had a scope on it, and looked through it, and the scope was turned where it looked like a tic tac toe X rather than straight. I asked the dealer about it, and he said it had belonged to a guy in his neighborhood that everyone called Uncle Shakey. And he had consigned it for his widow. He said Uncle Shakey never could hit with a scope turned the right way, so he always put on his scopes where X marked the spot, then he could always hit with it. I really don't know whether the guy was telling the truth, but I thought it was such a good story, than I went home with Uncle Shakeys gun. :-)
I have heard of people doing the "X"
Never had luck with fusion ammo in my 300 wsm,I shoot winchester Ballistic tips 150 grain ,4 shot group at 100 yards they were all touching
Need to find some betterbammo
7mm 08 vs308 on the Clay test or paper plate test next
Already did the clay. Where u been? New video every day!
Very good shooting.
Hey Michael
Awesome video like always ...
Sometimes the duck swims on water other times the duck cannot even drink water ... we all have them days that all we do adds up to very little .. anyway like always enjoy your videos ..
Happy thanksgiving sir
Thanks for watching apache!
I’m loving these Ruger Americans! I have two myself and I think dollar for dollar they’re some of the best out of the box!
Pretty good for the money
Just ordered the compact in 7mm-08. Wonder how it will be with the 18” barrel
Awesome
You did a great job!
Thanks for watching Sgt armor!
Always! I really enjoy watching your video's, many thanks for what you do!
Happy Thanksgiving! Great video. Try different ammo. Maybe 140grain bullets
Happy Thanksgiving!
Check the click values B4 twisting, it is a major necessity!!!
Who Tee, would you consider a video that shows groupings of holes with the identical setup but with varying bullet grains?
Already planning to 👍👍
I like it
I know the pain of not having the scope centered. It happened to me sighting in and I went through so much ammo.
Just wondering..... Is it better to move the cross hairs to the bullet hole? Or move the hairs the opposite way of the hole? I have better consistency when I move them to where the bullet went? Ive seen both ways
Whatever floats your boat
My 7mm-08 loves winchester deer season xp 140 grn
Awesome 🦌🦌🦌
I am going to give them a go thanks mate.
Thanks for watching Richie
Hope You and Paul as well as your Families had a Wonderful Thanksgiving!!
WTW!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
Happy Thanksgiving!
Big fan of Nosler and Barnes lead free ammo in my 7mm-08,
Me too, but those are very expensive
@@WHOTEEWHO Yeah....I use them for hunting, but cheaper loads for target.
Question is this scope clear in every setting and how’s the tracking would it hold up too your magnum rifle
Which got the most power 6.8 western or 7mm mag what is you experience
Haven't shot the federal fusion but have no problems with the Winchester super x ammo
Awesome
Hello who tee who hope you and your family have a happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!
120 may be a light bullet for long range targets , but it works for deer . If you set the depth of bullet seating it usually helps , but have to load your own .
Yup
Do you "Break In" a barrel before you start shooting a rifle?
Happy thanksgiving wtw!
Happy Thanksgiving!
How about the penny challenge with 22 pistols??? Love to see you and Paul try that one.
Happy Thanksgiving! What do you think about 280 Rem.... I love this underappreciated round....
Never tried 280
@@WHOTEEWHO try it....if you have the chance....it will surprise you, sir
I like your method. Thanks. 🇱🇷👍☕😎
Thanks Peter
You need to use the Plumb bob when mounting a scope that way it’s straight up and down plus get a small level to make it scope and rifle are level
I use levels. I just did this one in a hurry
@@WHOTEEWHO ok
I have suggestion try a Laser pointer in the breach of the rifle to bore Site the scope
Just got one
Sweet
Hey Glenn
Hi, WHO_TEE_WHO, I love your videos and you attitude. Thanks!
Could you please check out a rifle in .277 FURY as soon as and IF you can get access to it for a review, it looks like one of the closest competitors to this one and a first major advancement in ammo technology in decades.
Haven't heard of that yet
It's a good bullet
I have a Remington 7mm 08 and I shoot 140 grain. Great gun I use it for deer hunting
I use Remington ammunition
Awesome! I need to hunt with this one soon
Bing bang boom brotha...
Boom boom bang
You do some fun videos.
Thanks for watching Scott!
I've used Federal fusion ammo alot for hunting but as far as using it for accuracy shooting it was to inconsistent for me.
Yup
At least you got to throw some lead!
Absolutely!
The last shot was the highest one. I’m not sure why, but just about every scope I’ve adjusted seems to not move as much as I intended a couple of times, then make a big jump on a small adjustment. Go figure.
Nice rifle. Never used Federal Fusion before, but by the look of some of the comments it has varying feedback about its quality. Hard to shoot nice groups when the rounds are erratic. Catch you tomorrow.
My 2506 loves federal fusion
Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!
WTW everyone has their own way of setting a rifle scope it seems. After making adjustment for the first few times I always bang the new scope a tad with my hand. Somethings just need to break in a little to work proper. I've did this for 20 + years with cheap and expensive scopes. If ever you doubt a scope put the gun or scope in a vise. Put the crosshairs on a mark on the wall or wherever. Now take a rubber mallet and give it a love tap. Not exceedingly hard but solid. Check placement of your crosshairs. If it jumps off target your scope is malfunctioning or in hillbilly slang junk.🤣😂
Seriously it does work. I have found 4 scopes I can remember in my own weapons and working part time at an outdoors (gun store) store years ago. 90% of the time it's in the mounting hardware or something most won't admit. Their shooting technic. Also try a level mounted to your scope. Keeps you level at distance.
I also read somewhere the trajectory is on par with, if I remember correctly 300 W.M.?
Interesting caliber. How does it compare to 6.5 Creedmor with max bullet weights? 7mm-08 seems like a better hunting cartridge.
Gonna compare the 2
That's a BB Gun compared to the 300 WSM, but a lot more enjoyable to shoot. I'd rather have a 7mm-08 than a 6.5 Creedmoor Better range of bullet weights for different sized game animals, and a flat shooter...
I love em all!
A really good caliber, those 120gr have got some zip on them, how would you say recoil is compared to 308 wtw?
Oh maybe a little less than 308
@@WHOTEEWHO certainly a caliber i would like to get in the future either a ruger american like yours or a browning x bolt
Where can you get these zero tec scopes from? I googled them, but it says you have to find a dealer?
I'm going to say that a good 2 or three shots between scope adjustments is a more sure way to be sure that the shots arent just stringing everywhere.
Yeah. Costs money
@@WHOTEEWHO in all honesty my guy.... Im a bit curious why you don't reload. I know you use alot of ammo and its rarely the same brand twice
No time. I alreafy hardly sleep 🤷♂️
@@WHOTEEWHO well. Shit. Spunds like you need an assistant with a press lmao
I believe that rifle does not like fusion Bullets brother. I’ve never tried it great video brother be safe and GOD BLESS
Dude please incorporate a bench rest,at longer range's u will save ammo.
Everything costs time and money. I'm short on both
Nice setup, I like norma and hornady ammo better, its a realy nice scoop.
Hornady more expensive 😆
Happy Turkey day! Just waking up from a meat coma!🤪
Happy Thanksgiving!
What is your favorite caliber to shoot 1,000 yards. I want a rifle for at least 800 yards but I'm so confused on all the different caliber.
I’d look at 260 REM (same as 6.5 CREED) 7mm-08 and maybe 25-06; 7mm REM MAG, 30-06 and 300 WINMAG (the last three if you don’t mind recoil)
there’s several others that will do it consistently, but those are all off the shelf factory loads you can find in the stores....
I would also like to see that 25-06 at 1000 yards!!! Wonder if it will ?
Coming soon.
@@WHOTEEWHO yayay!!
