NEWTOWN, Conn --(Ammoland.com)- NSSF’s video playlist features alot of tips that take the mystery out of long-range shooting.

But do these techniques really work? In this video shot at the Texas Triggers’ range, Ryan Cleckner, well known to Pull The Trigger subscribers for his long-range shooting tips, applies the fundamentals he preaches to make an incredible 1,000-yard hit.

Though we don’t recommend shooting the Barrett 50 off-hand at 1,000-yard targets, Ryan proves that by applying the fundamentals of shooting, anything is possible.

After determining the range to target, simply turn the elevation knob until the BORS screen matches your target's distance. Internal sensors automatically calculate the ballistic solution. BORS compensates for temperature and barometric pressure, calculates angle cosine and displays rifle cant.

All you have to do is calculate for windage; BORS does the rest.

The flags downrange at both ranges help with that:

Not only that, but look at who he is instructing. That tall guy in the green shirt at the end of the video is Colby Donaldson, host of the History Channel’s Top Shot program. You’re looking at the best of the best talent when Colby gets involved. He brings in some great names.
