    The Everyday Sniper Episode 138 Philip Velayo Fundamental Talk

    Great Interview with Phil Velayo of Gunwerks, USMC Scout Sniper Instructor, Competition Shooter, and Fundamentalist. We breakdown rifle set up, talk a lot about stocks and your length of pull adjustment.

    How the length of pull and rifle set up dictates so much how well we shoot. It goes from the back of the rifle to the scope, to the bolt and trigger. This is an important part of starting out with your precision rifle.

    Lots and lots of knowledge bombs dropped on the listeners and some golden nuggets mixed in.

    Thanks for listening, thanks for sharing, thanks for being a part of the Everyday Sniper Podcast.
     
    Got it on the list to give a listen. Along with Everyday Sniper, Caylen and Phil's podcast is the other one I listen to in the precision rifle world. Good stuff!

    You guys mention a podcast where Jacob is on. Maybe I missed it (I'll have to go back and relisten, in part because there was a lot to absorb anyway), but which podcast was he on? I'd like to give that one a listen as well. Danke!
     
    Excellent, excellent episode...
    I think the resurgence of fundamentals as foundation to the actual, practical application of precision marksmanship outside of a game setting is refreshing and extremely relevant.

    I have ZERO issues with the competition setting and find it enjoyable for sure.. its humbling (I hold a match in Alaska every October).

    But the ability to apply the fundamentals to hunting situations with an emphasis on driving your weapon rather than riding your gear is AWESOME.

    Frank, Phil, Taylor (Duct tape, not Carl- I don't know him) and Caylen KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!
