    Came across this youtube channel and thought some of you might find it interesting. It's dealing with aspects of long range shooting but the same can be applied to 300-600 yards also.
    Didn't want to put it in target shooting as it might be missed by the hunters that just want to push their range a little further or learn new things.

    Some of it can be a little intense but hopefully ye can pick up a few tricks to get you pushing your limits and improve your shooting.

    A wannabe what? is the information in his videos incorrect? i have seen the majority of them and i dont see much wrong with them. In fact i would say these are te best videos in relation to long range shooting on youtube.

    Had a look at some, very good and he goes into great detail

    Rex has been around for a while now and is a wealth of information. As for the wannabe comment, I think that says more about the poster than Rex.

    Im not going to get into what it says about you since that would be attacking a poster, rather than the post. You believe he is a wannabe, thats fine.

    I believe having a go at someone who puts that much time into trying to help other people, for free, says alot more about the person saying it than anything else.

    Tell me, what is it that Rex has so wrong?

    As for the Midlands comment, I really dont see how that relates to Rex but would you care to elaborate on the link between the two?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 338 ✭✭Dian Cecht


    Going by the intent contained in the first sentence of your post above it would be futile to try and have a discussion of any kind with you.

    If I need to explain it to you, you don't need to know.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    MOD: Dian Cecht, either answer the question or don't make some obscure insinuation in the first place. You're baiting members and this is a warning to stop it.

    I agree , he is good ... Doesnt say anything though. Rex is also very good if you can get over the , I think , Canadian accent, but the content is good.

    No, I dont actally i just have an interest in long range shooting, so read and watch videos in relation to the subject fr entertainment. :rolleyes::rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 547 ✭✭✭Nightforce 65X55


    Well Said, There are a lot of shooters that are into long range shooting that never or rarely shoot on ranges. The internet or you tube are great sources of information for anyone interested , and the sites mentioned above are some of the better ones .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Lads, Dian Cecht has been warned for baiting, but let's just leave the whole subject of who shoots where at that, alright?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 243 ✭✭badshot


    well i shoot in midlands
    but i've never seen rex there

    Never realised I was, whatever it is :confused:

    Thought I simply had a different opinion.

    Warning noted ;)

    This guy has a vid shooting steel with a 243 at 1550 yards, and he gets called a wannabe???

    THLR vids are great even without chit-chat!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,072 ✭✭✭clivej

    I seen that one a long time ago. Impressive stuff. There is a lot of crap vids on you tube and guys I couldnt suffer listening too and really love the sound of their own voice. But I think his vids are some of the best ive seen and hes sharing good info. He really seems to know his stuff. Its working for him anyway.
    I definitely wannabe able to make shots like that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28 Big Buck


    I wouldn't mind what people called me if I could shoot like that! Yea a lot of crap on it too but some real good ones. Should mention nightforce65x55 and other irish video makers, nice to see a bit of irish hunting on there too, keep up the good work lads!
