Come train with Rex!!! It would be an honor to meet you in person! rexdefense.com/

Welcome back Rex, I have for a long time had a passion for shooting, but you're videos have sparked my interest in percision shooting. Unfortunately, around here (NC) places to shoot long range are not easy to find. I am blessed with 400yard range in my back yard and have been working on using it to tighten my groups in hopes to one day stretch out more. Thanks again for all the info, insight, wisdom and hard work I know you put into the production of this series. Ervin Kimrey

Good question. I will try to remember to address it in the next few videos on advanced external ballistics.

Surefire makes very good stuff. You can thread your own barrel if you know what’s going on with your lathe. Make sure both ends are aligned with the axis of the bore and not just the outside diameter. Alignment needs to be near perfect.

I love your videos, Rex! Gah why are your videos not getting the views?? this is the absolute most comprehensive source for everything pertaining to...well, hell, everything shooting!

I have watched every single one of these in the series and have learned so much. I enjoy the in depth scientific way this is delivered. I don't have gear like yours yet but one day I will after I graduate from college. But I wanted to thank you for all the time you put into this.Anxious for external ballistics.

i like to be as accurate as i could. besides i like to watch you videos and learn about all the factors of long rang shooting! you do a great job at explaining things. thanks for the reply!

Another point to add is a suppressor will reduce recoil which I believe aids accuracy but reducing the importance of recoil affected accuracy. Thanks for the great series!

Great video. I'm creating a curriculum for long range shooting and you helped Me jog my memory. Sometimes I think stuff is common knowledge and forget to mention it.

another top notch informative video glad too see you like suppressers as much as I do!!!!

another great stuff! Big thanks,Rex! Waiting the ballistic tables with great interest!

Great video, very informative as always. I plan on getting a SF muzzle break + suppressor for my AR 308 I'm building, so I was glad to hear that won't negatively affect accuracy. Thanks again, Rex!

Hey Rex. Glad to see another vid. Thanks for all the tips so far. Your body of work is so comprehensive.

Welcome back Rex, thanks again for another informative video.

Fantastic video as always. Thank you for putting so much time into these.

Thank you for all your hard work on these videos!

I'll give you guys the equations I use very soon. Yeah, I do paper tables for this as well. Coriolis accounts for only a tiny tiny part of our hold off. Unless you are shooting at very small targets at extreeme ranges, it won't trip you up too bad. Stay tuned. Coriolis is right arround the corner.

Pokey flash suppressor ...LOL!. That's a new one.

Amazing brother! Thanks for your hard work, making these videos.

SWEET! Always look forward to seeing your vids

you saved my evening :)

Thanks, you do a great job making these vids.

Yeppie, a new part ;) Thanks for that, Rex!

yeeeeeeeees finally ballistics tables! can't wait!

Excellent information ! Excellent video ! 5⭐

TiborasaurusRex..What are your thoughts on a fully internally suppressed long range rifle system....Especially when it comes to accuracy, etc...thanks.....also incredible series that you have posted...very informative and unbiased

They do what they are advertised to do :-) Its totally up to you, but I don't like a brake unless I really need one.

In Norway its generally not advised to keep your suppressor attached to the rifle all the time. Both our gunsmiths and suppressor manufacturers suggest removing the suppressor then the rifle is not in use, due to ammonia that forms inside the suppressor which can greatly accelerate corrosion in the barrel. My gunsmith says he has replaced several barrels due to this. Lot of powder deposits build up in the suppressor, if you hold the gun muzzle up it could easily loosen and go inside the barrel and action. I always remove my suppressor after use. It wouldn't fit in my drag bag if I didn't, but still... I would suggest removing the suppressor every time.

Great vid.

An interesting discussion with results that are not what one would expect.

Enlightening

So, I'm a little late to the party on this one, but wow. Thanks so very much for putting this out there! I've been watching your whole series on long range shooting and I'm consistently blown away by the quality of your information and how well you present it. Thanks again very much. My question, I'm interested in a suppressor for a Savage 10BA Stealth in 6.5 Creedmoor. Thunder Beast Arms make a 9" titanium suppressor in both 30 caliber as well as 6.5 creedmoor specific. While I'm tempted to go for the caliber specific model, I feel like it's a large investment to limit myself to just using it on one rifle. I thought the 30 caliber might be more versatile considering it'll work with anything from 223 up to 300 win mag. Thoughts? How much performance am I really sacrificing on my 6.5 creedmoor if I use a 30 caliber can? P.S. - On a side note, have you ever done any one-on-one training or offered any classes before? I'd be very interested if you do.

great vids

Great video, shoot suppressed all the time..glad that it's a win,win,win,win...and saves your hearing...Glad your back...when cloning comes in fashion..I would like to clone you for a shooting partner...

Do you recommend a different cleaning regimen for use with suppressors? They seem to foul a lot more quickly. Should I just leave it alone until accuracy declines?

The covers that go over suppressors are to eliminate or reduce the heat waves that would come off of them if they didn't have a cover. If there is no cover you would see mirage in your scope which could affect accuracy.

just the tip

how does that sound go again Rex? Pichhhhoooouuuu

Hey Rex I am in some cast bullet facebook groups and wondering what your take on Powder Coated Bullets apparently they leave very little residue in the barrel I know your passion for copper but I wanted to get your opinion

Thanks for that info. I found a guy who has some land here we can shoot out to 1500. Now i just have to get where i can make hits that far.

If the effective range is determined by the distance at which the projectile becomes subsonic, then if the Bullet leaves the bore subsonic, isn't the effective range decreased?

Be advised: My clone will enjoy lots and lots of Fruity Pebbles for the first 15 years and then it will move up to steak after that.

Hey Rex, What do you think of the AAC Brakeout Flash Hider/Muzzle Brake ? Also, would you recommend trying to thread your own barrel to install a device? Thanks!!!

Gybo is the technical term For weight or piece of mass it gets added by an engineer or individual to a harmonically balanced system . Engineers do this in automotive industries they put weights to help balance into get rid of bad noises and bad harmonics on rear ends and exhaust systems

The AAC (Advanced Armament Company) Brakeout is a hider/brake combo. Any advice on these combo types? And thanks, I won't try threading my barrel!

how do you clean your rifle crown with a muzzle break or do you even need to?

How well does the Browning B.O.S.S. work for tuning your barrel harmonics to your load?

plus if your using one...keep it tight..so everynow and then I reach up and make sure it's tight...the cover keeps you from frying your hand...it gets hotter than the filling on a nuked hot pocket...and will give you a severe burn if you reach up ungloved and touch it...believe me...you will only do this once.

rex.... i was curious on coriolis effect. i keep all my drop data and all the information on paper. the only calculator i have is the basic calculator to do simple math. i was wondering how you come up with the corrections of the coriolis, and if theres a way to keep it all on paper with out a calculator that does coriolis?? i appreciate all the videos you posted! great job!

Rex what is your thoughts on a breakdown rifle for our application? I have a Nemesis Vanquish and it would be cheaper for me to buy a .338 barrel.

I know he mentioned this is the brake pull of vid but some brakes installed on rifles that shoot tame cartridges like a .223 can turn a pretty quiet gun (compared to something like a .338) , that should be a pussycat for signature and blast into an obnoxious concussion and blast machine. Perfect example Is my Bushmaster 16" upper its got a pinned and welded (thanks Clinton) Mini Y Comp on it, Its a Cylindrical muzzle brake with 3 very large oblong shaped holes that are roughly 7/16" across and 5/8" long on each side at roughly a 40 degree rearward angle and 2 roughly 1/4" inch holes on the top that are angled rearward slightly , That gun is actually unpleasant to shoot for long periods. Just because of the face full of blast and concussion. Ive actually got headaches after shooting a few hundred rounds running drills with that gun. The recoil reduction and muzzle rise reduction are fantastic, the gun basically doesnt move, but its hardly worth it. Not only is the signature as far as noise and blast far worse than any other comp Ive ever seen or heard on an AR-15, even with no downward facing ports the amount of debris that gets kicked up while shooting prone is pretty bad as well, Its bad in the wet and mud of Western Washington But in the Summer in Eastern Washington the amount of dust that gets kicked up will completely envelop you if you shoot prone. And simply putting a mat down wont work, I even tried a second full size shooting mat sideways and a little behind the muzzle and it was still a massive dust signature. I do have another comp with almost the same design as the Mini Y comp on my 18" heavy barreled Precision AR-15 or my version of an "SPR" and even though it also has 3 rearward facing holes and 2 on top exactly like the Mini Y comp, the diameter is much smaller roughly 1/4" wide and 3/8" long on the sides and 3/16" on the top and it behaves completely different, it still reduces recoil and muzzle flip extremely well, Ive put it on my other 16" Carbine that is an ultralight build, And It performs fantastically, Maybe not quite as well as the Mini Y Comp but Its hard to tell, My ultralight is over a pound lighter than the Bushmaster, and that weight difference may have more to do with the change in perceived recoil, than the performance difference in the brakes So not only does the brake with the smaller holes perform just as well, it does it without the massive increase in blast and concussive force it and has a reasonable prone signature that can be mitigated pretty well with a fairly small mat. If course since its a brake it does increase blast at the shooter and at the sides, But it sounds like an Ar-15 and feels like one while shooting it. My Bushmaster with that Mini Y Comp does not. So even though you cant really judge recoil reduction and muzzle flip reduction performance by the looks, You can get an idea of which comps and brakes with produce an incredible blast and If a comp with big holes can make even an AR-15 unpleasant to shoot for long periods imagine what a design like that on a .338 Lapua Magnum would do for just a few rounds. So be picky about your designs, do some research, look at reviews and vids if you can before you buy a brake, Those things can get expensive especially when talking about suppressor ready ones. I want to point out that im not recoil or blast sensitive, Ive shot all sorts of guns in all sorts of calibers and the only one that I really felt was an unacceptable amount of recoil and blast was a dangerous game load in a very light single shot rifle, I think it was a .470 Nitro but I cant be sure it was a long time ago, and I only fired it once and had no desire to do it again. The other biggest caliber I have fired was a Barrett 99 chambered in .416 Barrett, while certainly not a gun I want to put 50 rounds through in a day, that gun wasnt producing obnoxious recoil or blast for what it was.

still waiting on the spotting video :P

Hey Rex, the machinist who did my barrel cut down said that the 11° crown is pointless and has no bearing on accuracy. The gun came with an 11° crown (it had no threading). He cut mine at 90° and I asked (and we initially agreed) for the 11°. Will this hurt the accuracy? Should I go get it re-crowned? By the way, I don't shoot any boat tail bullets, only flat base.

Yeah, 2 months is a little too long to leave us hanging!

I always shoot suppressed...

so can you crown a barrel and have a muzzle break too.

make sure that the guy who installs it or who threads your barrel if it needs to be is the best you find. my 308 rifle got seriously damaged by a highpriced gunsmith who made me pay twice for "found no problem"

My softpoints get all bent up in my AR-10 when loading them.

Including this in my study materials for physics!

I wish I could get a sound suppressor, but thanks to scary Hollywood movies they are illegal in Kalifornia.

The b.e. meyers has awesome flash suppressors bemeyers.com/segments/defense-systems/240f-m60

POKEY< BAHAHAHA

False information at 11:00. Boat tails are generally less stable than flat base bullets, due to gases and shit following the boat tail and moving forward of the bullet. Benchrest shooters use flat base bullets. Check your facts.
