S2 - 03 - A Talk With PRS Competitors

Have you ever wanted to 'pick the brain' of someone who competes in a Precision Rifle Series match? The 6.5 Guys took the opportunity to talk to dozens of shooters at the 2015 Vegas Precision Rifle Challenge who compete at the national level and ask them some key questions such as:
- How did you get started in long range precision rifle shooting
- What is one thing you do that has the most impact in your performance in competition?
- What key pieces of gear do they use?
- What do you recommend to those who are interested in getting into this type of shooting?
We found their comments interesting and insightful for anyone looking to step up their long range precision game.

S2 - 04 - Our Match Rifles: 2015 Update

Like every other competitive shooter, we change up our gear from time to time. In late January 2015 we finally received our new match rifles that we'll be running for the 2015 season in our competitive matches. In this episode we take a look at the rifles we used in the last season, and conduct a walk through tour of how we have configured our new match rifles. Steve and Ed discuss some of the drivers behind the decisions that led to the selection of the components in each of our rifles, and some of the things we expect to reevaluate and possibly change up as the year progresses.

S2 - 05 - Match Highlights from UNSC & Rock Lake

In this episode, we share highlights from two matches we recently competed in. Our monthly club match at Upper Nisqually Sportsmans Club (UNSC), and the first match of the 2015 NW Precision Steel Series Challenge at Rock Lake. We decided to try a different format by providing a photo montage set to music and look forward to hearing your feedback. Scott Satterlee, the winner of the February 2015 match at Rock Lake joins us as our special guest to give us some insight into shooting techniques that helped in the challenging conditions for that match.

S2 - 06 - A Look At Rear Bags

Many rifle shooters collect a variety of rear support bags over the years because different bag designs are more useful than others given the specific shooting shooting scenario or position for how it may be used. In this episode, the 6.5 Guys take look at a spectrum of different rear bags they have either purchased or created to use in precision rifle shooting. They focus in on the philosophy of use for different rear bag designs. Steve and Ed also discuss what bags they prefer to use with different rifle platforms or types of rifle shooting; and they highlight their current favorite bags for use in tactical precision rifle competitions.

S2 - 10 - Load Development (Part 1 of 2)

Developing and tuning hand loaded ammunition for a precision rifle is important to ensure that the rifle can live up to its full accuracy potential for a given bullet and powder. The 6.5 Guys take on this topic, which is often the subject of debate and differing points of view. In this first of a two part episode, Steve and Ed invite a special guest, Scott Satterlee, to provide insight and a unique perspective on tuning hand loads for tactical precision competition.

We participated in the 2015 JC Steel Challenge and had a great time. However, our focus was on keeping our head in the game and enjoying competing in the match, rather than filming another match episode for our YouTube channel. Having said that, we did come away with a small handful of video clips and large number of still photos. We've posted the photos of the match on our web site so be sure to check that out. We also made a couple of posts about the match to our Facebook page. We'll look into possibly using the video from the match at some point down the road, but at this point we have too many other episodes planned for this season to provide any meaningful coverage of the match. Suffice it to say, that if you haven't checked out the match be sure to try and attend next year. It's one of the big PRS style matches in the Northwest.
