How to Shoot Beyond Belief

Has anyone seen this video series? I like the Best of the West tv show and just wondered what everyone thinks of this.

I seen it.. friend has the video. Watching someone else on film shooting/hunting/other outdoor activities just doesn't wind my spring.
I would ask out loud as I was watching the video "why don't you get closer...ya smuckl" but thats just me.

also the part john burns doesn't tell you is that the BDC he uses is after the range gets to 700 yds and beyond is good for 1 set of conditions. change bar pressure, or altitude and it starts getting more and more inaccurate as far as your scope settings go.
To give you an example a 4" change in the bar pressure will change the POI of my 7mm AM 200" at 1500 yds, now granted you may not shoot that far but say a 4" change in bar pressure along with a 40% increase in humidity, and 2,000 ft elevation change and you miss the proverbial broadside of the barn at 900 yds.

Yes, what ridgerunner said, and don`t forget mirage, a sunny or cloudy day makes a lot of difference on bullet impact also.
