1460 Yard Video,Flight Time and Audible Steel Hits

[Tucsondave]

JTG and I were shooting out to 2300 yards and recorded these hits at 1460. Using a .338 DTA and .338 Surgeon. My DTA was suppressed with a AWC Thunder Trapp and JTG was shooting open. Enjoy,I know we did.

Good shooting Dave!

Thanks for the video.

I like that JTG guy

He's got that ELR down to a science doesn't he ?!

I've seen him make a cold bore shot at a mile on a couple occasions!!!

Dave JTG, kinda puts a measley 2 sec flight time shot into perspective. i gotta get to these dist . whats the barrel length/twist, bullet wts/ brand, holds and atmosphere stats? looks like you guys had great conditions,but man....4 1/2 sec, thats some hang time!

Re: 1460 Yard Video,Flight Time and Audible Steel Hits

believe my surgeon is 26" w? 9.3 twist, loves 300 gr but I believe the bergers are out performing my scenars easily, 2757 fps seated loooong. t/51, h/29.6, b/p27.21 Dalt 4377 6 to 7 mph from 2:00 had almost 1 full mil dialed and adj w/ wind depending on flag then it did a 180 degree change which is typical in the desert. the next day wind was 15mph, gotta love the wind.


once the air moves away the sound signature is carried w/ it, but when it's blowing towards you it's great hearing the gong at 1950 yards.


Berger bullets rock... almost like cheating


Dave will dial you in on his rig, it was the hammer of the gods....

I was using my DTA in .338,26" 1/10 with a AWC Thundertrap suppressor. Shooting 300gr smk. Was right next to JTG so conditions were obviously the same.
