Good Hunting Starts With Being Well Prepared

Good Hunting Starts With Being Well Prepared There can be no doubt that the hunter, just like athletes and other sportspeople, has to make sure he comes well prepared for the hunt, or for any competition shooting he may be interested in. Take, for example, the shooter and hunter that enjoy long-range shooting. It is a specific discipline that requires its specific skills, relevant instruction preferably from an experienced source or someone with expertise, and certainly a good rifle. Longrange shooting refers, typically, to shooting at targets at long distances, such as, say, over 600 yards, often over 1,000 yards.

Because short-range normally refers to distances shorter than 300 yards, some experts of long-range may define it as above 300 yards. For many, it refers to much more than the 300, as mentioned earlier. This distinction is normally drawn because the long-range shooter or hunter will have to consider factors such as ballistics, especially about wind direction and speed and drop in gravity with longer distances. It makes perfect sense that the shorter the distance to the target, the less the shooter has to worry about wind and other weather-related factors. The long-range shooter has to factor in various issues that those that shoot over shorter distances do not. Many feel that carrying and using a lightweight rifle adds to their accuracy and reduces stress during a long day out there where often the hunter does not get many chances at target and taking down their prey over a longer distance, whether you fancy a Mountain Tactical Rifle, a Lightweight Hunter option or the Ultimate Tactical Conviction, for example, from a sought-after brand such as PROOF Research. These and other fine rifles from the PROOF Research stable have proved themselves to be among the most admired and sought-after hunting rifles for those that enjoy longrange hunting and shooting. Some of the best-known brands and supported rifles for the long-range hunter include, for example, other names such as Savage, Weatherby, Ruger, and a host of others such as the different PROOF Research options which are favored by many a


long-range shooter. It is a brand that has built itself into one of the leaders in terms of which hunters buy them for the hunt. This rifle is often mentioned when precision rifle systems are discussed, precision and accuracy being of extreme importance for any hunter or shooter – especially over longer distances that offer their challenges. Very often shooters mention the fact that these rifles are meticulously put together to offer them, the shooters, greater stability and ease of use because of their light carbon fiber barrels and stocks. Many hunters and shooters feel that the PROOF Research is one of the leading rifles when it comes to making long-range accuracy and precision possible specifically because of the reduced weight. Of course, individual taste will always differ but the hunter looking for accuracy associated with lightweight rifles may be drawn to the PROOF Research name. Most astute hunters and shooting enthusiasts also make sure they talk to experienced hunters and even retailers that work with these rifles all the time. Because the long-range hunter has to take into consideration factors such as wind drift and other related issues, such as referred to earlier, it will be a good start to talk to those, such as good retailers, that can advise about good long-range rifles such as the PROOF Research – especially if they can help the client customize their rifle about, say, barrel break-in to make sure velocity is not compromised during use, with custom load for one’s specific requirements and the rifle one uses, and to come up with a precise ballistic profile, which is what the hunter wants from the outset. Be well prepared – it is a good start when you are looking for precision, accuracy, and success at longer ranges. It starts with buying and customizing a great rifle.
