What the Data Says Actually Matters in Precision Rifle Shooting
Description
How much of what we believe about precision rifle shooting is actually backed by data?
In this episode, we're joined by Cal Zant, the creator of Precision Rifle Blog, to dive into the science, testing, and research behind competitive precision rifle shooting.
Cal shares how Precision Rifle Blog started, how his research has influenced the shooting industry, and what he's learned from years of testing rifle equipment and studying the gear used by top PRS competitors.
We also discuss some surprising findings from his 100-yard underground testing range, including how rear tripod support can affect group size and how powder humidity can cause significant changes in muzzle velocity.
Plus, we dive into rifle scopes, muzzle brakes, barrel testing, reloading techniques, neck tension, and why some of the things shooters spend the most time worrying about might not actually make them better competitors.
Whether you're new to precision rifle shooting or a seasoned PRS competitor, this episode is packed with insights that might change how you approach your equipment, training, and shooting.
