In my opinion, Mark is the best teacher ( on RUclips). Mark is so knowledgeable.
Thanks Kao, Cheers
The best video about shooting long range on RUclips I have seeing so far.
Cheers man, thanks
So much truly professional knowledge once again. I put a 6.5-20x44 vortex on my 300 PRC. So many claim you need much more magnification. Seeing as what you said the old 1x for every 100yds stands strong for a baseline. Thank you both for teaching and demonstrating for us enthusiasts willing to learn this complex sport.
Cheers Man
Great advice Mark. I was sitting here thinking of the things I do and what helps and then boom, you hit it on the head.
You mentioned needs and wants. Depending on if the wife is asking if we "need" then the "want" is always a need!
Lol, Cheers
Awesome seeing Sam shooting the Tikka! Nice to realize that she loves actually shooting as well
Cheers
MarkandSam AfterWork And she is a crack shot to boot👏🏽
I hit a mile for the 1st time yesterday. I hit 2073 yards today. Missed the 2203 yard target. I messed up my wind call. Definitely hooked on ELR now. I have been watching your videos a lot lately. Lots of great info too. Thank you for putting this info out there for the masses.
By the way, I was shooting a 338 Edge today.
Awesome, have fun, Cheers
Thank you for all the wonderful information!!! I've put together my dream 300PRC setup using your guidance and a billion hours of research. Now to find a boatload of ammo. Cheers!
Cheers Josh, thanks
Currently practicing with my 22lr. But have a chassis and heavy varmint barrel ordered for my .243 to start stretching it out. At 2.75 a pop tho might be time to start researching how to load my own. Having fun with 2 boxes a week hurts the bank. Thanks again Mark.
Good plan Paul, Cheers Man all the best
What a wonderful well explained Upload, Mark.
I have learned a lot from watching you guys.
6.5 Creedmoor, 300 RUM are my two “precision” cartridges.
Gained a lot of confidence as my shooting has progressed.
I keep one thing in mind. Fundamentals!
Thanks Man, Cheers
Clearly and concisely explained 👍🏼
Cheers

Hey mark ,I want to step it up a bit from 308 and was thinking of 7mm rum but you just downtalked me to 7mm rem mag based on your experience.
I want to get it ready for when U and Sam start your long distance training school lol.

he world coming over for the experience- damn shame coronas screwed that lot up
Cheers
Rob

Thanks Man, Cheers
I was able to pull off 1 mile a few months ago with a custom 700 300rum with a mark 4 Leopold and a 25moa base taking 52.5moa from a 100yd zero. I was thinking about building a smaller caliber just for the reasons you state recoil and expense. Love the videos
Thanks Robert, Cheers
Been watching for a while now , subscribed and look forward to hearing from you guys in another video
Hi Kenneth, thanks for tuning in. Hope we can be of some help. Have a good day. Cheers
@@markandsamafterwork Hi Mark and Sam
already picked up some great tips guys
Thanks again for the effort you put in to make a very entertaining show 👍
Cheers
Thanks for this information. I really want to get into longe range shooting it’s just gonna take me a while. Hopefully your info will sink in so that my learning curve isn’t shaped like a wall.
Thanks Rob, glad you liked, Cheers
Great video,I’ve tried explaining all that to a lot of my buddies with no luck.Then they wonder why their .50 cal won’t group like my 300wm.💯👍
Thanks Steve, glad you liked, Cheers
MarkandSam AfterWork I’m so jealous of where you get to shoot.I have to drive 400 miles to shoot out to a mile and up to 2.❤️🍻
Yeh, we are lucky for sure, helps so much practice and testing, glad you liked, Cheers
What a great video!!
Thanks Man, Cheers
great video!
Cheers
Very Interesting Information. Thanks for the video. Also the message was great. Like you said it is more than just pulling the trigger. Be Safe
Thanks Dick, Cheers
I’m just happy I finally was able to find some ammo to go to the range and stock for the zombie apocalypse. Got lucky the gun show wasn’t canceled this weekend, here in Texas. Also had to rescue a new 9mm, she look so sad being caged up.
Great to hear, looking up by the sounds of it, Cheers
Hi Mark :) so I’m at a crossroad in my long range walk. I already own an RPR in 6.5 PRC, so that takes care of my sub-mile ranges, and now I’ll be purchasing a Savage 110 Elite Precision for my mile+ ranges- but I can’t decide between the 300 PRC and the 338 LM. I don’t reload so I’m stuck with factory stuff. The 300 PRC seems to do well, but factory ammo is more limited by far, but is also considerably cheaper. The performance of the 300 PRC supposedly tops the 338 LM after 2,000 yards, but I’m not sure how true that is. Just wondering what your opinion is on this situation. Thx. Love the videos.
Don't believe what they tell you, a well set up 338lm is a good step in front of a 300prc in outright performance and ELR capabilities, but all in the details, and still doesn't mean one is better than the other.
Also all in the details, but the 300prc being less power and bullet weight is easier to shoot, and the with more power and bullet weight, the 338lm takes more to shoot, cost and effort..... and then there are another dozen cartridges you could put in the same bracket, lol. As for my opinion, that is what the video is all about.....Cheers
Awesome vid i shared it with a shooting mate so we can be on the same page. Great content
Thanks Man, Cheers
For me the best ballistic app I've used is a note pad and pen/pencil, I'm limited to 1000 yards, have to go west to shoot a mile or more
Cheers
The Goal for me this summer is a Mile with my fresh built .300wm 230gr bergers. R700 action, fresh benchmark barrel 1:9 twist, Accuracy international AICS 2.0 chassis, Vortex RazorHD Gen 2 locked into a Sphur mount and 20moa leupold scope base. Cheers!
Sounds great, Cheers
Looking at 2nd hand rifles online some of the bigger Calibres are much cheaper than the smaller ones. Especially the adds saying minimal rage use. Which I'm putting down to the seller thinks the 300win mag sounds like a great idea to start but they buy as a first rifle and change there mind pretty quick. Honestly the 243 in super light hunting rifle has enough recoil for me for now
Yes, can be like that, Cheers Paul
Hi Mark. Great video. How do you fit the trg bipod on that rifle? Where did you source the adaptor please? Regards
Custom set, modified the stock and the bipod, Cheers
Awesome video! I’ve been shooting a 300 prc for about 6 months now. Really like the cartridge. Which spotting scopes do you recommend for shooting 2,000 yards plus?
Thanks, and well I don't make recommendations, there are a lot of good options out there, we have tried very few, but we use the Nightforce TS-82, Cheers
Great video, and info, Mark. I may have missed it but do you ever shoot the 6.5 prc? Cheers.
Lol, nope, we largely leave the fad cals for a year or so, see if they are still relevant, Cheers
I'm always fascinated by your exploits. They are truly inspiring and awesome.
That you can calculate the angle to adjust your shot to such a fine degree over such massive distances is far beyond my capabilities.
I don't know if this is cheeky but I wonder if you would consider doing a night shoot using tracers?
It would be incredible to see how much arc there is to your ELR shots.
Just a thought.
Thanks John, are well tracers are not very accurate, but also not legal here, sorry, Cheers
@@markandsamafterwork Bugger - didn't think if that!
Thanks.
Cheers
Mark, great video and information as always, I wanted to get your thoughts on true calibrate and budget, looking at something like 6.5 or above, that would still work with baseline environmental conditions if that makes sense, and a deselect rifle, that is not over the top to the point we’re budgetary unrealistic.
Hi Phil, glad you liked the video, but I do these videos to help you make the right choices for you, I do not make recommendations or suggestions, sorry, Cheers
That 45-70 leaver action must kick with factory loads. I have a win trapper carbine in 44 mag and it hurts.
Depends on the load, but just a good thump with factory, Cheers
I came across your video while looking for a heavier shooting rifle for elk/moose.
And I didn't even know about long rifles or heavy barrels. So, this is incredible!!! I love it!
I'm looking to put together a 700 Remington that will shoot 300 WM cartridges. And I have been reading & writing your info down but I'm obviously missing critical info. I would love to get my lady & daughter into target shooting & she is the marksman in the family. Would it be possible to assist me into putting together a long shooting rifle that I could also sit in the open hunting If I choose to, with this starting configuration:
Without breaking the bank?
Say, under $2,000~ dollars.
1 - 1-1/2 miles range
700 Remington bolt----$650~
300WM cartridge----.
Even if u don't have time or can't read all these responses, I have put your videos on prescribed & I'm watching as many of your shooters & info's as possible. Currently living in Florida.
Oh, I refuse to shoot a 6.5 Creedmoor...lol
I can support u through your channel for your help.
BE BLESSED. BOTH OF U!!
Hi Kurt, glad you liked, sorry I do not make personal recommendations or suggestions like that, I have many, many videos to help, but would also suggest you talk to a local gunsmith, or long range shooters in your area, that may be able to help you find those other details you are chasing, Cheers and all the best.
I would love to know how thick the 24"x24" plate is so it doesn't get destroyed.
Depends on the distance of shot, for ELR we use 3mm mild steel, Cheers
Thank you so much for the info I’m building a 6.5 creedmoor in a mdt chassis and have a 20moa rail coming. What 20moa ring brand should I look at? I have a vortex strike Eagle 34mm tube 5x25x56
Thanks Man, and no sorry we don't sell those sort of parts, so I don't make recommendations or suggestions, do some searching on line, not too hard to find, Cheers
What are your thoughts on the swfa 10x fixed scopes its a cheaper scope but curious your thoughts on them. I have mine on a 20moa rail. Gives me about 40 minutes on elevation
I haven't used one, so couldn't say, sorry, Cheers
I have a hard time finding a place to shoot 400 yards. I might be able to go around the Mississippi River and find a spot but I would first have to make friends with the land owner.
Cheers
I had the same problem until recently. Lived in heavily forested area where I was lucky to get a place to shoot 100 yards without driving 6 hours. Now I live in the high desert with all the room in the world. It will be great to start shooting at longer distances again.
Great information! Any plans to try out the 6mm ARC?
Thanks Man, and no time soon, will wait a see what the market thinks, not just what the sales team says, lol, Cheers
Hi Mark, great content as usuall :) I have been watching your channel for some time now and I' m a big fan.
I was thinking of getting into long range precission myself.
The largest shooting distance in my country is a military range available for civilians during long range competition - 1650 m (1805 yards)
I was thinking of competing there with:
Tikka T3x Tac A1 6.5 creedmoor
Primary arms 6-30 Athena BPR scope (27 mil elevation)
Spuhr 0moa mount.
Would that be a viable build or would you consider something in different caliber, different scope?
I' m beggining my adventure with long range and plan on competing at those distances not sooner than in a year or two after gaining some experiance on shorter distances.
Would love to hear your feedback.
Greetings from Poland
Hi Michalrd, glad you liked, as for your questions, I don't offer that sort of advice, I would suggest you talk to your club and local arms dealers to help with those decisions, I have many videos like this one to help with the things you should be considering, hope they are of some help, Cheers
@@markandsamafterwork Thanks for the reply :)
Cheers
I’m asking this question out of my own lack of knowledge but you are one of very few people that I see using a suppressor. I watch a lot of different long range shooting videos and most of them if not all are using suppression. It’s my understanding this is because it adds some , but not much velocity to the round. Is this true or a myth. If a suppressor slows down the round then why use one?
We don't use them for several reasons, not the least of which is they are not legal here. As for benefits, it depends on the details, but they can increase velocity, they can improve groups, and to many they make shooting more pleasant, and they look cool..... but as said , all in the details, they also don't control recoil as well as a muzzle brake, but maybe ask folks that use them, Cheers
cheers
Cheers
😊
Cheers Will
No love for the 6.5 PRC ???
Ah, I didn't mention many many choices, doesn't mean they are not ALL good, lol, Cheers
Hi, my goal is to reach at least 1500m with my 243 and S&B 100;grs factory loads...
For a 50/50 cms gong. Any advices?
🖖🏻🇫🇷😎🇫🇷🤪🇫🇷🖖🏻
All in the video, best of luck with your efforts, cheers
What is your opinion on the 300 wsm
I have just bought a Sako 85 classic in 300 wsm and topped it off with a Swarovski 5-25, going for a fairly light weight hunting rifle
Good round and pretty much all said in the video, Cheers
Before i listen to anything im just going to guess lots of practice.
Sure helps, lol, cheers
You shot past a mile with a lever gun. You're just scary.
Lol, Cheers
I can shoot out past a mile easily , what exactly I'm hitting who the hell knows ? 😉
Cheers
You have forgotten as much as I’ll ever know
Cheers
