In this episode, Matt is joined by Jay from Orange Accuracy as they break down the key factors that influence accurate and ethical shooting in real-world conditions. We talk about how heat affects both shooter and equipment, what it means for consistency, and how to manage fatigue and focus over longer sessions. The conversation moves into ballistics and distance, explaining how understanding trigonometry, trajectory, drop, and environmental variables helps shooters make informed, responsible decisions rather than relying on guesswork.We also explore long-range shooting fundamentals, with an emphasis on preparation, repeatable technique, and knowing your limits. Chronographs, Kestrels and ballistic calculator apps are discussed as a valuable tool for building reliable data, confirming muzzle velocity, and tightening confidence in your setup. Throughout the episode, the focus remains on being disciplined, knowledgeable, and ethical—continually improving your skills while prioritising safety and accountability every time you step behind the rifle.For the latest information, news, giveaways and anything mentioned on the show, you can find all the links here.
