Long Range Shooting Tips: 5 Tips to Increase Your Accuracy

Long range shooting comes with its own challenges. It can be harder to hit the center of that target at 1000 yards, one hunting rifle will be better than another one, and individuals will need to keep several things in mind to make sure that they are a good shot. These five tips will help everyone improve their accuracy when it comes to a target 1000 yards away. Position is important Position when shooting or hunting is one of the most important things. If a person is wobbly or uncomfortable, it will be difficult to focus on precision. It can be hard to have a good shot when a person is concentrating more on their footing instead of where the bullet is going to go or how the rifle is aimed. Don’t forget the wind People experienced in hunting know that the further away the target is, the more impact the wind will have on where the bullet lands. If a shooter fires the same rifle at a shorter distance, does not adjust his aim to account for the wind, and fires at a target at 1000 yards, he will more than likely miss because of the wind. This is something that every long-range shooter needs to keep in mind. Some people will have a person to help them during training exercises that can let them know if the wind will affect their shot. This is a nice way to get the hang of remembering to keep the wind in mind, especially at a distance of 1000. The scope needs to be flawless In order to get that perfect shot when hunting, the scope needs to be in exceptional condition. First, it needs to be clean and clear. If it’s not, you can easily miss a shot because of a shadow. Second, it needs to be calibrated as close to perfect as possible. This means that shooters are going to have to take it to the range and make sure that the scope is working properly if they are planning on hitting the target.


Don’t blink Not blinking is something that every shooter needs to learn. One blink can mean a missed tar get, especially when it comes to long range shooting. Inexperienced shooters usually blink when they first start shooting, but with practice and determination everyone can get the hang of not blinking when they need to hit the target. Start off slow by going to a shooting range with a rifle. Before every single shot, remind oneself not to blink. It will take some effort at first. Then, with enough practice, it will just come naturally for larger distances, like 1000 yards. Breathing It is important for every shooter to remember that breathing is important. This can make or break any shot. It’s important to breathe slowly so that it will help keep your stance steady. Meditating can help with this. Practice meditating before practicing shooting to learn how to control your breathing. Then, when you are trying to hit a target that is hundreds of yards away, exhale first. Hold your breath and pull the trigger before inhaling again. This will help with focus and it can help hold the body completely still during a shot. Long range shooting and hunting are about having the ideal rifle and knowing these simple tips to make sure that every shot hits the target. These tips will help anyone become more ac curate.
