Welcome to the 16th episode of the Texas Plinking 1 MOA At 1,000 Yards Challenge. A monthly video series where I let 5 fans come out with their equipment and attempt to shoot a 10" gong at 1,000 yards in under 10 shots. If they hit it, they can use their remaining shots on the 5" gong. The 10" gong is worth 10 points and goes down 1 point after every shot. The 5" gong is worth 20 points and goes down 2 points after every shot. Once both are hit, the challenge is complete and each unfired round is an additional point. New episodes go live on the 1st Monday of every month! - Zábava

Another great episode! Well done Brandon.
loved the episode man. I have one suggestion for the hit camera, maybe if you set a camera closer to the targets that heat wouldnt affect the shot. Paired with an angled housing to protect the camera from being shot.
Man… A lot of judgment in this comment section. More than usual. This series is made for recreation. When people miss or do things you don’t like, take it as a learning moment for yourselves if you wish. But the constant judgement of contestants is not what this series was made for. Keep it friendly y’all. This is a niche thing we have here, let’s not eat our own.
Agreed. People need to chill.
Well said.
Unless I have shot 1,000 yards in front of YT camera with 1.11M subscriber, I would think twice before criticizing anyone!
Firearms community has entered the chat.
The "long range shooting community" can be really brutal. I've experienced some of that on a facebook page. It's a lot of dick swinging and posturing with ridiculous comments.
All that said... if you're someone who has gotten really good at long range shooting... you have to remember that a lot of these people probably don't shoot that much and their experience level is not anywhere near the "seasoned" level. Most people don't get to shoot out to even 1,000 yards as they don't have those kinds of ranges anywhere near where they live.
Try to remember your own learning curve before judging and most importantly... just chill out.
If you're still freaking out... make your own videos.
Am I a long distance shooter? No I am not, Am I even in the US? No. Will I watch every video that I come across because I would love to try it one day. 1000% yes. Keep it up!
Most of these guns are legal in other countries so you can get a license and try yourself.
Respect to the guy who got it on the 10th shot. That is the hardest shot to take and your mind will mess with you!
That .300 Norma mag smacked that Target!
you got 10, but you only need 1. still wildly crazy that someone can shoot out that far and get a hit.
Carbon barreled mpr with weights is peak Christensen owner.
Yeah I don't understand the thought process there.
It’s not that complicated. I Started with a different discipline in mind and now I’m wanting to shoot long range. It is what it is and I have the rifle so I have to make the best of it. MDT elite is in my future.
@@sstevens7you’ve got a rare MPR that shoots… don’t push your luck with another one! 😂
That stiff bolt is making me nervous.
@@Vantage88 MPR Elite, impact precision action, and brux barrel are plans for next rifle.
I'd love to see a CZcams celebrity edition with all the popular guntubers like Gavin from Ultimate Reloader, Who Tee Who, Erik Cortina, Jim Harmer from Backfire, Mike from Halfmilesniper, and many more...
That will be very interesting!
This would be awesome!
Eric gonna come in clutch with his k31 swiss iron sights, and Brandon gonna whiff with his svd
Markandsamafterwork!!
Then it becomes a money show.
I love how passionate your mom is in the background, it's pretty awesome really.
One of the great things that adds to the show’s uniqueness.
Thank you for taking the time to mark where the shots land.
Love the stock Howa 1500, you showed just how well they can do with decent ammo and shooter for maybe a tenth the cost of some of the other rifles.
Massive respect mate
Thanks!!! It’s an accurate little fella
@@TaylorRogers-e1blove the off the shelf style with it all. Great shooting and great set up man
@@arisemercyy3224 thank you!
@@TaylorRogers-e1b what brand cheek riser it is on the Howa
@@HitchElcapri no earthly idea lol it’s obnoxious but works good.
These videos are the only thing that counters first of the month bills lol
Definitely! I look forward to these every month, too lol.
Haha I hear that, mortgage day always sad
I second this
If you were an uninvited person, YOUD HAVE NO BILLS!! FREEBIE CITY! SMH
Yup.
As for bills, isn't it funny how businesses and government now want people to pay before receiving a service rather than after.
Thank you host.
Thank you shooters.
Very much appreciated.
I made a 1000 yard shooting lane at the farm. I wish more people realized how hard it is to shoot that far.
Just doing 500 with zero experience past 100 yds and no education on the matter has been a kick in the reality balls for me. Taking shots when you have zero idea what your drops are/should be just ends up with me wasting ammo a lot of the time. Funny enough the easiest shots are with the BDC reticles (3 different scopes with the ACOG style chevron + tree) and at least those are on my 5.56 rifles so it isn't that expensive to just lob 55 grainers down range.
I've got 590 to my property line, it gives folks trouble to say the least!
@@Fadaar Theres tons of free ballistic calculators. Not knowing drop is unnecessary
@@TrolloTVyou have to know your fps as well. You shouldn’t just base everything on what your box of ammo says and a calculator
A lot can happen in a 1000yrds. Lots of wind changes, terrain can mess with ballistics with heat, etc etc
Really appreciated Shane , not just acknowledging the propensity of the expansion due to pressure/ heat component in the barrel and action, but believing it was going to occur. His placing the round in the action and not loading into the chamber until his eyes were adjusted on target as well as time for heat to dissipate from chamber ; he then loaded the round into the chamber taking seconds to engage the shot. Outcome was less frustration and bolt came open each time without additional effort.
Congratulations to all shooters and Brandon for having this event. Believing is an action word.
Really appreciate your words my man!
I was nerding out on the exact same thoughts. This to me appears to be a sport where the tiniest of adjustments matter. Balancing the time between letting the chamber cool and getting fast follow up shots as to achieve similar wind holds is something kind of beautiful to see.
@@sstevens7 Shane, having squeezed the trigger on 100’k , built handguns, and rifles; your deliberate concentration and sharing in the beginning was a pivotal moment, for revealing the issue chamber heat/ pressure. Many have experienced wild shots, at the Texas plinking event; as well as acknowledging not really knowing the cause. Your demonstration revealed one of the most prevailing causes, chamber conditions at ignition. We will see how many shooters begin experimenting this condition that alters POI. CHAMBERS HOT ! BARRELS HOT! Long ago in handgun silhouette we placed guns in coolers recorded chamber temperatures , and shot over chronographs. Interesting results! It is I who appreciates your tenacity and precision attitude in action to incite my own thinking and reflection on experiences.
@@jerrymoran8323 love your input thank you!
Second guy is a hell of a shooter for sure
Nathan was great. Shows up quotes the Bible, just happy to be there. Clearly studies his craft, I was so happy when he nailed it. Great job man.
This is one of the best series on shooting and fundamentals in action. I’ve shot 1000 meters with an M-4 on normal man sized targets. (Sniper section confidence shooting/messing around) Had more misses than hits. The beauty of this segment that Texas Plinking does is bring in people from all over with differing experiences to challenge their confidence and patience. Love it. Looking forward to the day a low lander Floridian like myself comes and takes the gold. High fives and cheers to all contestants that have been on here and faced the fire. Thank you Texas Plinking
It’s pretty impressive to see the relatively tight spread of the impacts, even when missing. These guys brought some serious skill and rifles to the challenge.
What a testament to modern cartridge, rifle, and optic design that a hobbyist shooter can show up with factory ammo and a production rifle and do things that world-elite shooters 40 years ago would struggle to execute.
24:45 I don't want to be overly negative but with a flinch that bad he needs to switch to a smaller cartridge. Especially since he needs to re-learn how to shoot prone (no angled prone, offhand on rear bag, work out that flinch). He needs lower rings or an adjustable cheekpiece as well. Every time after he shot he dropped his head down onto the stock where it should have been all along. It sounds critical but he'll enjoy shooting a lot more if he changes things up.
Yeah, when he left the safety on it was pretty evident there’s a serious flinch occurring. And like you said, the ergonomic setup of the rifle is poor for him. He needs a cheek riser and a pretty serious one, and being a taller fella he might even benefit from even taller rings once the shoulder/cheek fitment is addressed. He seems like a good guy and a pretty humble man, I’m guessing he’d be amenable to some ergonomic improvements for his setup. It’s a sweet rifle, but the ergonomic setup is leaving a lot on the table for him. And at the cost of 300 Norma, the penalty for bad ergonomics adds up pretty quickly.
300 Norma throws a lot of heat, I’m wondering if some POI shift due to thermal is at work in his struggle.
A bit concerning that the guy with the first surgeon action shot a 50” group yet mentioned shooting live game at 1600 yards!
as always, love this series and it has become my overall favorite.
As an old guy who had trouble shooting open sights at 200 yards when I was young, I have nothing but respect for those with the courage to try a difficult challenge like this. Much respect to all involved. I always root for everyone giving this challenge a try. I want everyone to do well. Thanks, Brandon.
Those fancy rifles like DD, Surgeon McMillian and the good old HOWA passed over them
That 6mm ARC! 🔥
I do love it!
I don't think you guys realize how much I root for these shooters! I just did a tiger woods first bump at 14:40 seconds when he hit the 5 inch. lol
Seeing the email for this video made my day. Another great episode, everyone shot really well.
That 300 Norma was blowing craters out there 😳. I think he would have done a lot better with a good bipod.
Best show to really capitalize the technical aspect of shooting, and actually showcase the capability of different Cartridges, rifles and shooters. Love every second of it!
Agreed.. one of my favorites since day one
The guy with the 338 would be better served with a stock that actually fits him. He has a non existent cheek weld because the scope rings are too high. He's beating himself up because his custom gun isn't getting it done, but he's missing because of fundamentals.
I really love how this channel developed. I can't stop watching, and my wife got into your podcast.
To go to a new range and different conditions and shoot at 1000yards while also being filmed for a show with no spotter has to be respected.
I literally look forward to this upload at the beginning of each month. My favorite CZcams series to date. Thanks for the edutainment!
Love this CZcams channel. Keep it going. I like seeing the different rigs that they are using.
2nd guy was shaking haaaard. Glad he pulled off some hits, hard to kick the nerves when they hit you.
lol yeah you got me! I shake normally and with caffeine and people watching it ramped it all up.
@sstevens7 I could imagine. God on ya either way showing up to a completely different climate and busting out 1k yards has to be the worst game of home field advantage
Awesome as always Brandon. I truly enjoy these
Nathan from Beaumont is exactly what I imagine when I think of a true Texan. Dude was super likeable for the short amount of time he had on screen.
Me and my Wife wait every month for this Video. We love it. Keep up the great work.
Stop everything, time to watch the latest TPC! Much respect to everyone who shoots. Thanks to TPC for all the effort to make this happen!
Another great episode. Love that Mama-Plinkin is still in the top ten for 2024!! Great stuff here man!
This was like watching a golf style game for gunners. Wish my grandmother was still alive, I'm sure she would've enjoyed it. By dozing off white watching it on a Sunday afternoon visit. 😴😎
I’m not close to ready for it but one day I hope to get on the show! I wish this was a weekly show but hey it’s still great! Learning a lot from the positive and constructive comments here and the shooting. Thanks man!
That flinch at 24:46 was insane 😂
I was dying… then the safety being on LOL
But the Lapua Scenar L have the lead core on the back and tumble on impact...and those 330 atips make potato salad out of game animals at 1640 yards. Wonder what size the animal was and how many shots it took 😂
@@tiroalargadistancia4293 A heard of Buffalo probably
I guess he forgot his armor.
It may have visually looked like a bad flinch but look at the barrel of that rifle. Kept it pretty stable honestly.
Favorite YT show. Thanks for doing these man! Love it!
this series is awesome: between honest outlaw, 9-hole, and this channel, you have every type of shooting covered. love seeing a variety of long range rifle shooters with their setups and what works for them.
Always first class, really enjoy, thanks so much
For guys like Steven who was so consistent, but couldn't connect, after the tenth miss you guys should spot for him and walk him into the target
I always look forward to these episodes. Definitely my favorite show.
Weights on an mpr I shot mine in the 1 mile in 300 win mag with and the factory brake does amazing on that gun.
300 norma, with a NF, and the cheapest friggin bipod he could find. 😂
It make my laugh with the bipod. Amazing gun all around but the bipod part was kinda funny.
Dude was holding his head up and not using a solid cheek weld. lol. What on earth….
His attitude and wonderful speaking voice made up for it 😂
I also love that he brags about making potato salad out of game animals at 1645 yards but shoots a 6 Moa group @1000.... talk about an unethical hunter
I wonder if he meant 645 yards? Even then, he would be off.
you guys make this look WAY TOO FREAKING EASY!!!!!!
Oft - Nathan from TX is great. More of that bloke! Such passion.
Thanks for sharing Brandon
Awesome video as always. Seems like everybody had fun all shots were on the berm, most important thing at that distance imo. Hopefully I'll make it over one day to give it a shot...if I ever get a reply 😊
One takeaway from this video for me is that impressive external ballistics can only take you so far. It’s a tradeoff against recoil and heating the gun fast.
People need to square off on their rifles more 😂
Rosco barrels are awesome. I’ve built 3 rifles with Rosco as my boom parts. Barrels, gas blocks and tubes. Great manufacturer.
Lumberton TX boys repping SETX good stuff guys!
I love this channel. When i learned of it last month, i benged watched every episode. The biggest takeaways ive seen so far. Is i alway root for the underdog. The kid with the moisn shocked me the most. And alot of people are afraid to make the big corrections on the first few shots. Dont be afraid to dail that sucker in. Keep up the good work. PS i havent shot over 750yds with a bolt action yet. But i have with several machine guns while in the army. 2500m with the m2 50cal at one range. And 1800ish with the mk19 and 240b. It's funny how much a little wind can affect a bullet going downrange by watching tracers and then adjusting. Keep up the good work.
I'm digging all the science behind all this
Thank Brandon! Look forward to trying this someday! I like that 6 arc Howa 1500. I would love that in a heavy contour on a woox
I have a Howa 1500 mini action in 6.5 Grendel with an MDT Oryx chassis, but it barely groups sub MOA with a few loads. I've been thinking about re-barreling it a heavy contour Preferred barrel. I didn't know wood made barrels. I have seen their aftermarket stocks and chassis systems though.
I've been thinking of doing a custom Howa build in 6mm ARC. I've got 2 AR's in 6mm ARC and they're awesome.
Thank you, I needed this today
Señor Norma mag sure was talking a big game.
Geez, I struggle to get out to 300 yards with my 223 😂 well done guys
I absolutely love every episode.
Another Great Challenge Brandon , thanks for Sharing 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
The poor fella with the orange rifle was taking every miss to heart. 💔 1000 yards will always be 3000 feet aka a long ash ways.
I'm always looking to see somebody get that 38 score, really enjoy your channel.
Finally, a new episode
Your target camera is so much better than before.
Awesome hunt and video brother! That looks fun! Nice shooting.
Oh dear lord some of these are just painful to watch! Which keeps me coming back to watch more. I love the pain.
I really love this series.
Great Stuff! But I ask, not 1 windage adjustment. Look forward to next month. These guys all put in 110%.
I dont chase the turret after making initial adjustments the ballistic app calls for. This is the case for most shooters that I follow that are really good. I started on shot one holding center and then started holding left, ended up holding 3 MOA left after initial 1.5 MOA was dialed.
This proves its better to have a cheap setup that you can afford to know like the back of your hand. 500 yrds and out isn't easy
It's funny how watching these has shown me the amount of money into a rifle isn't the limiting factor. Some of the more expensive rifles in the video in magnum calibers didn't hit the target that a sub $1000 rifle in a smaller caliber did. Willing to spend $10,000 on a rifle but no training I guess.
mosin man should live rent free in everyone's head after what he pulled off
@@Fadaar He's my favorite yet. Damn legend.
I’ve got 400 in that 6mm without the optic lol
@@TaylorRogers-e1b
That’s awesome lol-I love it when people break down the $$ barrier to entry for this kind of stuff. Stock, off the shelf howa 1500?
Always spend on ammo and practice!
love this series, get to see so many cool custom guns lol
Love the fact the 6 ARC dominated over the 300 Norma and 338 lapua
Had nothing to do with the shooter?
Wow the Howa performed really nice for the simple it is.
Great video! Love this series
Always amazes me how people will go 10 shots off the right edge grouping in the same spot and not stop to think “maybe I should hold more wind”. Must be the heat of the moment brain fart.
This one always gets me at matches, ive seen guys dig an absolute hole, dumping 20 or even 30rds in the same exact spot. I've seen it be 1 or 2 things or a combo of both. Beep brain (basically having skills/a plan until the timer beeps and all rationale leaves the brain because of nerves) or not spotting misses. If I have 2 shots around the same spot it's time to make drastic changes. Go an extra .25 or .5 more than what I think the correction is. Also sometimes holding low to put one in the dirt can help.
Right? I think sometimes it is changing winds though. But it may also be some mental deal. I've done similar
No shit, make an adjustment…
338 LM family cartridges with 25 - 35x magnificacion makes for a narrow field of view. Add a magul bipod and probably not the best or most stable position behind the rifle and the recoil will bounce you off the impact area pretty easily.
@tiroalargadistancia4293 That's a good point too, a lot of people have the magnification way too high. At 1k 15x-18x is plenty
Sometimes it's frustrating watching people shoot the tiniest group at 1000 yards!!!! And that group is only about one target length to the right of the target.... and he just keeps sending them right in there and going, "awe man"... and the next shot, same hole in the dirt, "Awe darn it"... next shot, same hole in the dirt, "darn..."... all the way home...
I think this is the second Adjustable Bag Rider I've seen - and it looks like they both won on that day.
First guy was a natural marksman. He didn't go crankin on the scope once he had his dope. Barrel heated up on him after 5 shots .
That's kinda the idea behind "dope"- once it's actually dialed in, leave it alone.
The others not correcting their shots through the turrets are just guessing.
But, then again, video games make experts apparently...
Everyone underestimates how much of an adjustment they need. You really need to use the reticle more to make your adjustments.
Beaumont represents, a good show fellas.
Respect to the guy that showed up first with a stock howa 1500 mini in 6 arc. Not a lot of hits but a good showing.
Hard cartridge to play with in those kinds of winds but I love that rifle
Keep these coming!!!
The last rifles hits was all in the same place damn near
I like the second guys plan. He would leave the bolt open after putting a round in the magazine actong like he is looking through the optic for "some reason" then would load the rifle. He was leaving time to let air travel through the barrel to help cool it a little. It may or may not have helped but he done pretty good.
Looking through scope to see where impact exactly hit and what hold over adjustment was needed for next shot
One more thing i want to add. For the guys who didn't use one, get yourself a bubble level. A cheap one for arond 20 and some high-end electronic for over 150+ . It will help a lot in the long run.
Love these videos!
Cant hit shit with his custom rifle on a steel plate, and talks about long range hunting.
Love to see it
He apparently only owns it to talk about it
@@StevenG415 Well that too. Though he can talk about his rifle all he wants if hes having fun, i just hate that he is way overestimating his shooting ability and is hurting animals in the process
@@TrolloTV agreed
A dude you definitely don’t invite over for beers.
Someone's jealous..😂😂😂
I’ve shot my whole life, I wouldn’t be confident on a new range, neither would anyone else. Chill arm chair QB’s
Texas plinking challenge or bust!! me and my nemesis will be there one day! thank you Brandon for the 25 percent discount on my new arken day night scope
Hornady needs to sponsor you!
Great video again though Brandon!
Howa Mini 1500!!! Incredible
What a blast,I’m in!
representing the golden triangle baby
Those guys were good shots.
