Howdy, guys and gals! I'm Kyle Broderick, also known as the Social
Regressive, and we are out here in a massive field today with Kedrick and
with Kyle Tate, and we're going to be taking some mile shots today. We are not
taking out the mile rifle that we're working on. We still have lots to
do to that to get it in shape. But we have two rifles that are totally squared
away and ready for this we have their ballistics ready to go we have the CMMG
Mk3 DTR2 in 6.5 Creedmoor with a Bushnell HDMR2 on top. That one is
launching 140 grain BTHP match bullets the other rifle that Kyle is going to be
using is going to be the Savage Stealth Evolution in 6.5 Creedmoor and
that one's firing the same rounds essentially they're moving out a little
bit faster from that barrel is just with that barrel liked probably about another
100 feet per second or so but both of those rifles should be totally able to
make this shot today the target that we have right here is a 30
by 40 inch gong this is a AR 500 three-eighths and it weighs 130 pounds
it is gigantic when the bullets hit it's not even gonna move this thing I bet
it's just gonna stay totally still and just splatter the bullets are going to
be well subsonic they'll have hit the transonic barrier at somewhere around
fifteen hundred fifteen fifty yards and they're gonna be subsonic for the last
200 to 300 yards of travel hitting this the distance we've actually lased
out to 1767 point seven yards from this point so we are definitely just slightly
above a mile so all our calculations should work out really well
we're up on the side of a hill and if you take a look way back that way Kyle
Tate is actually mowing a strip so that we're not looking through grass or
accidentally clipping grass on the way up here but we have a great big valley
in front of us this is good and bad for a couple things first off we are gonna
get a clear field of view all the way up to the target but we're also probably
not going to get any mirages just because of how deep this valley is below
us we might get a little bit up close thankfully today we have just optimal
conditions we're talking about three to four mile an hour winds projected for
today and feeling it I've got to agree maybe
it's gusting as high as five very very low today in order to see our hits
because these tiny little bullets are not going to make much of an impact here
on the ground we are using this this is the bullseye long-range camera from SME
and this is a long-range camera in a box it has a little camera built into it
power pack and what you do is you connect to this with your phone or
tablet or whatever kind of other Wi-Fi device you might have and right out here
this is the remote antenna this is a Wi-Fi router that when this is switched
on it's going to send our signal way down to our our setup area and then
we'll have a base station at the other end picking up this signal this allows
us to really concentrate that signal make it more of a linear shot down there
and yeah it should be able to send the data just fine to protect the unit of
course we got the router and antenna off to the side and then we have an AR 500
steel plate to protect the camera itself we'll see how this all works out you
might be wondering how we figured out the distance from our target back to our
position this right here this is just a one of those little standard
safety jackets with some reflective tape on the outside but I think what really
got the bounce and this is what worked before is that tiny little postage stamp
right there you would not believe how much infrared light this thing bounces
back we're using the Nikon Monarch 3000 stabilized rangefinder again I wasn't
propped up against anything I was just holding it and then firing this
direction it did take a little while but yeah after maybe about like 20 tries got
a bounce off here so yeah we're right at about 1767 yards to this point I think
we might move up just a little bit the
yeah we got the distance spotter is ready you have about a five mile an hour
wind from the right constant you're in good shape
did not see let me check the target camera okay yeah target camera is clean
did not see in this first string with the savage evolution we didn't get any
impact we didn't even get close like usual we couldn't tell because the
ground was just wet enough that we couldn't see dust and just dry enough
that we couldn't see mud splatters in the past our bullets have struck low
Hornady seems to produce very consistent bullets but let's just say optimistic
ballistic coefficients listen to this
we're definitely striking in front of the target let's move on to the CMMG
when we finally saw some dust kicked up alright spotter is ready competitors ready
did not see checking target camera
target is clean okay bring it up one extra milliradian hold off seven hold or
so hold up seven instead of six okay
ah I saw that there we go okay bring it up one
bring it up another one and a half mil irradiance you are gonna hold an extra
eight and a half mil irradiance zero your wind so it was the wind good no get
rid of your wind totally zero it out okay yeah you ready ready
send it
did not see checking target camera target is clean used that same firing
solution eight and a half mil radians of elevation zero wind send it real quick
one more did not see that one should we add some wind back in or or is it
changing is it changing directions yeah the wind is changing directions keep
zero wind and this time go ahead and do that seven hold off seven elevation
okay return to eight naff keep your wind zero it out send when ready I'm seeing
the Mirage from the right yes I am seeing her right Mirage I'm also seeing
some floating spiderwebs but I'm seeing some moving left to right sometimes keep
it zeroed okay elevation is perfect come left to milliradians
whew don't adjust your scope use the use of reticle mm to milliradians fire when
ready sending same solution one more shot
how's that eight and a half right yep half up to right
just below it come up point three milliradians higher than you were so
we're looking at eight point eight do the exact same way to hold to
milliradians I'm checking target camera
still clean but we are darn close do that same thing eight point eight to
milliradians left you mean right right
no Oh golly yeah agreed what you said okay
did not see one more all right okay
impact what we have an impact definitely not a fly all points lower left yeah
doggie whoo
yeah so we're giving it at least two mill radians of extra elevation and I'm
about almost two right yes that was twenty nine point eight we were holding
so if I just if I went to nine mill radians of elevation on the reticle
thank you sir yeah let me see how big a difference that is yeah go to nine nine
for elevation and hold off to point at two point two
did not see checking target camera
nothing new to report same hold send it again I flinched
all right why don't you reduce your wind to to flat keep that same height nine
nine extra milliradians oh I guess nine total sorry what was
that nine in the reticle yeah okay nine in the reticle hold off two for wind
wind is steady send it
did not see no new impact wait yes there is an impact whoo-hoo
there must be it's swinging pretty wildly you must have hit it at the
bottom or the winds picking up I'm gonna do that again do it and again all right
it is 2:05 we better cut it off here spotter is ready
Kendrick raised his point of aim over three millions to get on target with
that adjustment in mind we switched back to the evolution for the final shots
before we needed to pack up watch for flying dirt did not see checking target
camera clean since aim yep keep that same actually bring it up slightly bring
it up like point to an extra point - elevation got it send it
did not see checking target camera no new impacts and when ready that was
dirty did not see we were right in there we just couldn't see it next time we
head out we'll have a better dope for both scopes we'll also figure out
Coriolis adjustments since Coriolis and spin drift actually defeated the effects
of the wind this time out the wind was coming from the right but we were
actually aiming left of the target to make hits okay here we go oh he's right
hey I didn't believe him I need to stop doubting him so that was mine and we
suspect that these two may have been your state Oh
well either way we did it yeah that's a long way where is it there we go
I can't even find the patch trees where you're standing next to or firing from
oh it's no it's a small patch to the left of the big patch see the white
target on the tree Oh oh my goodness yeah we were looking in
the wrong spot I'm zoomed in all the way I can't I can't zoom the camera in any
further oh holy cow so let me see no it's on ballistics so when we were
making a contact we were going with all the ballistic calculations plus three
three three Miller three mill radians extra and the wind was kind to us I feel
like we've noticed that before that whatever our charts say are these longer
distances we're having to figure out how much more
on top of that mm-hmm like maybe the ballistic coefficient on those is not
quite what it says it is but if we remembered last time we were all
together what we had to raise at 1275 and then with this we could probably do
a simple calculation and correct that ballistic coefficient for what actual
life is mm-hmm similar temperatures a little warmer last time pretty nice
today but yeah we've been suspecting for a long time more like Kyle's been
suspecting for a long time that that ballistic coefficient is enough it's
good but it's not as good as says it is so all right but hey one full mile 1,760
yards yeah maybe plus a couple extra there you have it folks three impacts
I'm gonna have to go back through the footage to see who hit what you guys
already know because you've been watching my edited video I'm really
curious to see I know that two of those were Kendricks and we're gonna see if
that last one was Kyle's yeah all the rifles did a really good job we had very
good weather today as usual horny Hornady ballistic coefficients are just
a little bit off it seems like every time we go out with Hornady stuff the
the ballistic coefficients are just a little bit optimistic so we're gonna
have to work our way back a little bit see if we can figure out exactly what's
going on at least we know where the the CMMG is hitting at that distance and
maybe the the savage as well thanks a bunch of the people that made this
possible thanks to the guests Kendrick and Kyle thank you to my wife
and kids for letting me Det take off on a Saturday yeah and thanks a lot to the
patrons of the destructive arts especially Peter 300 Win Mag patron and
the new sportsmen guide 338 Lapua Magnum thanks a lot you guys keep watching
we're gonna get into that new rifle taking on this distance yet again and
who knows what the conditions will be like these were optimal maybe when we
take the the savage out might not be so easy we'll see how we go see you around
