    Think he still has a pic on the website of a deer we knocked at around 730 with it
    It was not known for amazing accuracy I think the short tube held it back at range.
    Here it is again

    I would love to make them shorter Norway 15 hours to upload is getting a bit silly

    I could do the good old editing everything except a few "money" shots etc, then it just turns into an advertisement or worse.

    I try to put in everything that happened, all the shots good bad or indiffferent with out making it to boring.

    We have all seen the videos of "first round shots" taken, then the camera pans back, to reveal a dozen or more spent shells etc, credibility starts to suffer.

    I drive about 300 kms to make the videos so try to get as much in as possible.

    I did attempt 3000+ as well but had no visible strikes, I hadn't intended to try that on the day & would have taken some 425CEs to do it because I have had strikes in the past with them.

    The trouble with that distance & backdrop is it is very hard to discern a strike on the video or in the scope, they are visible when you put the SD card into a big TV.

    I have to agree to much editing doesn't show the whole picture.
    At this point in time I wont be running out and buying any GS 414gr the smaller CE 350s out perform them at ELR not a good look for GSs 414gr flag ship bullet Ps: under 1500yds this may be different?
    1000yds is fun, 1500yds is getting interesting, 2000yds is exciting, 2500yds will blow your mind

    Full credit to ya as well. I hate trick shooting videos that only show the hits.
    Where do you get a computer that you can have to yourself for 15 hrs? Thats a bloody good trick in its self!
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    that's effort Greg for sure ! I make a few videos with the dogs -sadly if the resolution is poor they upload quick if not shes a pain in the arse for sure .300 kms to shoot them ..alot but worth it for a spot of such distance and visability for when the round lands -good work
    Tweed or not to Tweed that is the question
