For many shooters, keeping both eyes open only happens naturally after lots of time and repetitions on glass. It took me a lot of time for it to happen.
2403-yard shot on a can of red bull, sounds like a load of bull.

This brings up an honest question for me-in that video he mentions spin drift, but he’s shooting at 500 yards. The question I have is how much spin drift would actually be observable at 500?
Referring to the overton guy’s video.

If you haven't figured it out yet, Overton is a retard.
Yes, I did figure that out. Incidentally I actually found him on YouTube before I joined the hide. Kind of thought he was an idiot from his fake long range shots on that platform.
Can't be overstated enough.
It's so bad, that you are essentially an ableist making fun of him.
Actually, he's a charlatan - though maybe a mentally challenged charlatan.
And what does that say about all the people who follow him?
Loaded 155 scenars for my cousin's 26" .308, hit pressure at ~3100 fps.
Dropped down to 2950 as that was where we found best consistency, both for group size and SD.
RS52 and Norma brass, don't have my log here, can't remember exactly how many grains.
Overton has agreed to come on FocusTripp's stream and debate the 1.5 mile shot. Anyone from the Hide feel like having a crack at Overton, live on-air?
It was all I could bear to scroll through that video to find the relevant interaction (it's at about 31 minutes and 33minutes). Who has the time and patience to watch some guy in his combined gun/piano room spouting drivel about red dots and playing informercials for a whole fucking hour?
Plus - while I'm all for exposing Bloverton Window-licker, I don't know what "debating" is going to do to resolve the dilemma? Like expose him for not knowing the lingo of MRAD and MOA, or what?
Seems like a good way to waste your time and draw yet more attention to Window-licker.

It's the same thing as a dogpile here.
Or, when driving past an accident, you will look.
So, yeah, if there ever is a livestream, people, even people from here are going to watch it.
Like seeing videos of train wrecks. We have seen a bunch of them and we will watch one more.
Why did you scroll? If you click the play button in the video, it's already time stamped and goes to the right spot.
That's my BB code in my post. 1913 seconds is 31.8 minutes, takes you right to the point.
mmm it's about .1 mil which if you are trying to shoot that quarter at 500 yards you will absolutely factor in.
I think the guy is a total door knob but he did get that right.
Elmer Keith said/taught to zero rifle 1 click (1/4minute ) left to compensate for spin drift. .1 mil would be ok I suppose for those of us who like to stretch the distances way out there.
I read his book about big game hunting. He is the 'K' in the .333 OKH round. I know he liked the .35 Whelen. And he fancied large cartridges at moderate to close distances. Make big and leaking holes that leave blood trails and assist in exsanguination.
Yes, he like big diameter and heavy bullets. He was from a different era that's for sure. Then along came Roy Weatherby and his how much powder can we put in cartridge and make this bullet fly at the speed of light. Total opposite approach.
You have spin drift at all distances and it’s affected by the wind I’m talking a no wind situation. Make your solver do the heavy lifting (math) don’t just guess.
