The Shoot2hunt Podcast

Sadly, the company that sews our shooting bags' wife died during childbirth, so we don't have a timetable at the moment.

Not sure of their financial situation, but RS seems to step up for a good cause when called upon.

I second this - maybe we start a GoFundMe to help a great company who helped S2H put out some great products?

We offered, he just asked for time.

On the reloading podcast there was some question about if bushing dies are always superior or just generally better. The internet told me that non-bushing FL sizing dies have generally made more concentric cases than bushing dies when compared. I like that standard dies size the whole neck, are less prone to creating donuts, and cost less. So I ’m on the honed Forster FL die bandwagon.

I agree, but the issue for me is that I sometimes use more than one brand of brass. If I switch from Lapua to ADG or Alpha brass, the neck thickness changes. I don’t want to buy two honed FL sizing dies, so I use bushings. If I know I can get plenty of brass for that cartridge, then I go with Forster honed die.
Another example for me is 308 brass. I shoot 308 in my AR-10 and in bolt actions. I use Lapua brass for bolt actions and cheaper brass for AR-10 that beats the brass up and flings all over creation. Bushing dies allow me to adjust to each kind of brass.

I said it in the podcast, but people hear what they want to hear. Everyone should buy a .223/6cm, but I get tired of long conversations with Askholes who buy the "Magnum" anyway. So I steer them to the smallest magnum Tikka offers so they can build that 6UM when they grow up. HAHA.

But a 6.5 PRC Tikka with a good scope and lots of practice is a deadly trifecta.

I’ve listened to every podcast where you, Jake and Form have discussed the benefits of match bullets in smaller cartridges. I’m a believer! I would love to see you guys run a test at a Shoot2Hunt shooting school, have students shoot at various distances, in field positions with several cartridges, like 300 RUM, 7PRC and 6 Creed. Compare the results for 400, 600, 800 yard shots, with a time constraint, like 20 seconds to get the shot off. Then do a podcast where you guys discuss the results.

They've kind of alluded to the results already in that they said folks who arrive with larger guns end up borrowing 223's & 6mm calibers by the end. What does that tell you?

Again, I’m already a believer. Been shooting and reloading for precision rifles for almost 40 years and it took me maybe 15 minutes to buy into the concept. Was proposing an idea for an actual test/exercise which illustrates this and would make for a cool podcast discussion.

The military has unequivocally proven that people shoot light recoiling rifles better than heavy recoiling rifles.

 

[swavescatter]

These guys need content now that they’re influencers with YouTube’s and podcasts. I think a video podcast on this test would be great content.

Otherwise we’re just going to get the Rokslide version of 5 best deer cartridges, etc.

They do it during class, it's been discussed, but I agree some of the actual data would be interesting.

Ryan still needs to get Jake onboard first!

To me it confirms the relatively obvious - people don’t want to shoot 1000 rds in just a handful of days with something that has moderate or above levels of recoil and/or muzzle blast.

I don’t get the impression that Jake has much input on what/how people should go about being more effective rifleman.

I’ve run into the same thing. Actually have $20 Lee collet dies specifically to get necks down on some of the thinner brass that doesn’t get quite enough neck tension from the honed dies.

I’ve tried to minimize how much they size too much with most of my orders and am moving to more conservatively spec’d ones that do require a bit more of an expansion step.

But the fact some start shooting with something else means some felt they probably could / were willing to.

 

[Wprinkle]

Hey smart people... I've seen the AI videos of the babies doing like the Rogan podcast... One of yall need to do that with the S2H intro where Ryan goes off "tofu eating manbun wearing dorks that get no P@ssy" with Jake laughing in the background....

I’m about to be so much more knowledgeable than all of you guys right now . Because apparently the brass headstamp is what hits the elk and makes the hole…. And there’s 5 headstamps that do it better. All paired with Barnes bullets of course

Shit, in the first 2 minutes the guest said focus more on the bullet than the cartridge hahaha. I’ll give it to him

Ooooooo, Steve listening to JVB = the new truth for us! What a !

JVB and Rob Spomer are thoroughly in the pockets of the monolithic bullet cabal, so it’s not surprising that they promote Barnes bullets.
