Great video series guys. Just enough info to get a guy interested but not so technical as to overwhelm a beginner.

That is a great series of videos. Thank you again.

As a beginner with long range fire arms this series explain a lot of great things to know! Thanks a lot.

Nevada muley hunter...been watchin this series from France where I live and work. So dang homesick to go home and hunt I can hardly stand it! Great instruction! Can't wait for fall to come around so I can get back and put it to work!

You rock brother. I am 57 and have been shooting long range since I was 14 growing up in NH. We had a lot of woods there but we always could find a few hundred yards to play. The scopes I used back then didn't have target turrets so rather tough to simply turn in the range. But, I almost never kept my scopes caps on so I could make adjustments with a dime. Rudimentary. And the scopes back then weren't as consistent so if you could find one that would shoot a box you were happy. My FN 243 is bedded (by me!) and floated (by me!). That gun is definitely subMOA with my own handloads. In fact I've only shot one load in that gun for its whole life...a reduced (slightly) charge of 4350 behind a 100gr. partition bullet. I've shot deer and pigs and yotes and tons and tons of crows and a bunch of woodchucks. I am now building a 270 Ruger on one of those Zytel stocks...skeleton stock...the boat paddle. Horrible float from factory but that material comes off nice. I put a nice Weaver 3-10x40 mil-mil on it and WOW what a different a good scope makes. Makes me want to change my scope on the FN 243. My buddy won't let me do it though...he thinks I'll ruin the mojo obtained with that gun over the years...he has been my wing man on many shots. Anyway...I really enjoyed what you posted and how you methodically work up a good rifle. I learned and that means old dogs can learn new tricks. The new rifles today are just amazing but the most incredible thing for me is the scopes! Wow...what an advancement in technology in my lifetime. Keep on shootin brother...you're good and you are a gentleman. The Armed Mariner

Mike, this is a GREAT series demonstrating solid know-how! Proof that Gunwerks knows what they're doing! All the best, Rob

This is the best collection of videos that I have seen on this subject. Thanks for the education - from across the pond in the UK.

Thank you so much for an absolutely brilliant series on setting up a long range rifle.

The engraved turret is all fine and dandy but the first time the rifle gets dropped and breaks the scope the process starts all over again. And that engraved turret becomes a conversation piece.

If you take into account shooting either East or West at extreme ranges, the bullet will hit higher or lower than expected because the earth is rotating while the bullet is in flight. The Earth is rotating at 1037 mph at the equator so how far from the equator you are will also effect the rise or drop. Shooting North or South will also effect the wind-age as well.

Watched the whole series, I like it. I don't listen to "pickers" and either way, it will make your rifle and you a better shooter. Thanks for all the tips and time to produce videos that are informative.

Great series of videos. And result was a piece of cake.

Excellent video series and great representation of what needed to be shown here. To the point.

Nice series, liked how it all worked out in the end. Now its ready for good sportsmanship. ;) Cheers! Jeff

Awesome job and also an awesome video. Check out the video at 5:15 looks like you can see the vapor cone and almost follow it to the target. It appears that you can actually see the trajectory as the bullet drops to the target.

Mike - great job!!! Really enjoyed this series.

Great little series man. You've explained so much and did it so well. I now have a far greater understanding of ballistics. Love your product. Will definitely keep you in mind when I get my 700.

Great series of videos. I have two rifles I am going to run through this process. Would have been interesting to see how the stock Sendero grouped compared to the modified rifle using the same loads.

Awesome series! I will definitely look into what your shop can do for me.

great series guys. I'm getting ready to go build a off the shelf long range rifle pretty soon and I'm so g lad I found your pages and videos! thanks zgzin

Impressive! A beautiful set of videos. Thank you. Never knew one could make a turret. Keep up the great work.

Impressive, Mike. Thanks.

Hi Mike Thank you very much; Your videos are very informative and generally awesome!!! As a result of the above 5 part series, I have already put aside some funds to purchase a custom rifle from Gunwerks within the next 12 months. Keep up the good work! Regards

impressive and informative series of videos. good work and thanks for putting it out there

Mike - It's been 5 years, but I'm dying to know - how much did you sell that rifle for? It's a great video and inspired me to bed my own Rem-700, put in a Trigger Tech trigger, and do the analysis to get a custom turret. We don't have 600+ yard shots that are easy to find here in the Northeast US, but it's still fun to have a super accurate rifle at 300 yards and less. Thanks for the OUTSTANDING video!

Love the vids in this series!!! Looking for this kind of info! long range precision is my desire for fun shooting!

Awesome series, thanks!!

Gained a subscriber, awesome series, straight info without all the ego stroking so common on KZfaq.

Long distance shooting is really the only thing that interests me as a gun hobby. I like hunting but that's not really a hobby, that's a necessity out on the farm. This is a good basic set of videos, great job! what is the cost on the custom turret?

Gee thanks Mike now after months of looking for a scope for my CZ527 I have to up it to one that has a turret :-)

that is awesome build thank you so much

I rewatched the first video a second time, and still did not 'see' the actual trigger job. However, good info and great series! Keep it comin

Awesome series. Thank you. Would it be better to just shoot through a chronograph and know the exact velocity?

AWESOME video series, thanks a lot ! Do you guys make turrets for people? So the turrets have yards on them specifically for the load you use?

Mike thanks for this series it was great. Can't remember were you shooting handloads or factory?

Enjoyed the series, Thanks!!

I have a Sako 75ss in cal 243 and one in 338wm. Gonna learn about drop data and build a chart to use when hunting. That odd time when ranges go up its grate to know that you will for sure hit. We rarely hunt at more then 200meters. Yes I'm from Sweden. We use metric.

Superb tutorial man!

where do I find the Online calculator Range data site you have ?

Awesome. Nicely prepared set of videos! Can you print a turret for any scope?

Your custom turret is only useful for one load, one elevation, one temp, and only up to what looks like 975 yards. Just write your DOPE on an index card or in a notebook.

A question Mike Davidson. Im in Canada so im wondering would it work if i sent you all my data from my gun so you could laser engrave a turret for me and then just mail me the turret? Mind you I don't have a precision rifle with turret scope now but my plans are to get one. Second question have you ever sent one of your rifle systems to canada before?

What is the cost of the rifle you just demo ?

WOW, Way cool vid series, Thanks for posting. Be nice to see some stuff. :)

Man that was awesome!!! I want one

I'm impressed. i'll be making adjustments to mine.

Awesome 5 part Series

Awesome!

Is this rifle still available? Can you email back and let me know please. I am Interested and would love to get a deal on such a great rebuild. Thank you for sharing your talent and video's.

I live in Tennessee and when deer season opens on the 23rd of Nov-Jan5th in that time it can be 68-7 degrees! Significant fluctuations in the density of the air during the season.. POI shifts.. Shooting anywhere from 300ft-6000ft of elevation.. Lawd have mercy, dare I mention angles.. lol Who's gonna design the magical turret? Needless to say my data book has many pages.. ha ha very thankful for the kestrel 4500 but its just a tool not a crutch. Cool videos!

Awesome series

There is no "best" zero. It entirely depends on the ranges which you expect to shoot, and if you prefer to input solutions with your scope turret or do a manual hold over.

You should do this setup starting with a M700 SPS ADL or something like that bought from WalMart for about $275. Just a thought...

What happens when your density altitude changes? turret wont will be off if you have different temp and altitude correct?

what kind of binocular are you using and how much is the cost?. Good job recording the series.

Am I correct in saying that scope turret is configured for that gun and ammo only??? What if you shoot somewhere else with different shop ammo

Great series of vids, thanks for your time and effort. Do you know anywhere in the UK that can do this for me? Cheers Ash (Glasgow, Scotland,UK)

Hey Mike, what is the load work up you used on that 7mm? I see that you are using the 168gr Berger VLD Hunting bullet. I am using the same thing and just wondering what powder you are using and what seating depth please.. Thanks Mike..I want to be able to shoot a deer in the eye at 700 yards too! :)

Hard to imagine that you are really pushing that 168 grain (SMK?) over 3000 FPS. Did you ever actually chrono the round? And chronographs have become pretty damned reliable. Labrador, Magnetospeed, or the old trusty Oehler 35p. And why use a BDC? If environmental conditions change much, the BDC is off, especially at longer distances.

OMG OMG OMG what a technique to zero rifle OMG amazing. You are awesome man!

Great video series, guys. Would it make any difference when calculating your drop chart if you had chrono'd the actual muzzle velocity instead of using the manufacturers stated velocities, or are the stated manufacturer's velocities close enough to not make any difference?

Nice work, if you have all the tools at the ready that you need. However, most do not....

with relation to your custom turret mate, how do you know how many full rotations to turn it for when you shot 1300 yards?

No spin drift or Coriolis compensation?

That turret is cute, but it will only work at that temperature and that exact elevation. If you drop 25 degrees farenheit or 2,500 ft elevation, you will miss big time at 950 yds.

So, what if the new owner use another brand of ammo, or hand load some custom stuff, do they have to print an extra turret cap for each brand?

79.clicks. Assuming that this scope is adjusting performance is perfect!

I have a question, you have printer and program to print custom turret but we don't have that much of facility. How can we zero rifle in absence of custom turret printer?

Good work!!

How could I get one of those paper targets?

Bro that's awesome work!!

Hello from Victoria, bc I have 7mm & model 700-300 mag. bushel and a leuapold scopes. How could I have u tune them up? Great vids

Definantly a 7mm rem mag i shoot one, it kicks like one.

Very nice video! Well done. Pb

Hey thanks for your videos ..total fan ... you still have the rifle for sale ? Is so how much.. thanks

My question is this: You can buy this rifle at any sporting goods store for a reasonable price. How much more of an investment is it to use the scope and personalized turrets that you mounted? If I spend $700-$900 on a rifle, must I expect to spend $2000 on a scope to achieve your results? Just wondering as you didn't include that type of info in your presentation. Otherwise it was a very interesting series of videos.

What caliber is the gun?

Great Info...

+gunwerks I'm trying to get in to long range shooting my dad has a Remington R700 300RUM with a night force scope can u guys make turrets for any nightforce scope?

So like, can I spend some range tine figuring all of that out and send you the info I need for you to make me a new turret? Asking for myself.

How much does Gunwerks charge to take an existing rifle, put this setup on it, sight it in and build a turret for it? I'll bed and put the Timney on it.

Wow!!

Holy crap that's cool!

That 2.5" high was cause it was 949 yards and not 950. That extra yard would've made those bullets drop more. Lot can happen in that 3 feet.

What caliber rifle?

which Nightforce scope was that? I'm presuming 1in9 twist on that Sendero?

can you do a load development video

wow.

These turrets are great until you change barometric pressure.

What name have this gun and that scope?.cheers.

And that's great but that turret doesn't take into consideration the changing velocity due to ammunition temperature or the change in barometric pressure due to elevation and weather change. Unless it was the exact temperature and weather conditions as the day you sighted it in, then that turret is useless past 500 yards.

As a sales manager why do I need a Gunwerks rifle?

I have a 20 moa rail. Do I need to account for that in your program?

can we do this with a tikka t3?

How much do u charge to get my rifles dialed in like that.

What no windage adjustments.

What dja git for da rifle?

What caliber is this rifle?

How am I supposed to print a lovely turret like that...

what did the rifle cost before and after
