Week 1: Clean & Torque Rifle System
In the first step of our Prep to Hunt series, we'll ensure that our rifle system is in top shape before diving into the fundamentals of marksmanship. We'll start by disassembling the rifle to fully inspect and address any potential issues with its components. After a thorough examination, we'll reassemble the rifle, carefully torquing all fasteners to the manufacturer's specifications.To wrap up, we'll perform a comprehensive cleaning of the barrel to eliminate any carbon or copper fouling.This thorough preparation will set a solid foundation, giving your rifle system the best chance to perform at its highest level.
Week 2: Fundamentals & Dry Fire Drills
In this episode, we're going to shift our focus away from our rifle system and examine our skills behind a rifle. Phil will walk us through his precision marksmanship mechanics which is going to set us up to have consistency behind our rifle system. Combining solid fundamentals with a trusted rifle platform is a recipe for success come hunting season. In the second half of the video, we will walk you through the setup of 2 of the most popular ballistic solvers which will streamline our range time in the next episode.
Week 3: Zero & Dope
In this episode, we will walk you through our process to make sure our dope is perfect at all reasonable ranges. We start with a 100-yard zero, explaining why we prefer it over 200 yards. Next, we input the muzzle velocity into our prepped ballistic solver and check our dope at distance, trueing our BC in the solver while accounting for all the atmospheric variables. Lastly, we'll cover how to use these rounds to test your recoil management.
