1000 Yard POV shoot with Tikka 308

[574hondarider]

Long time reader here. Here's a cool video I made of shooting my Tikka Taca1 308 out to 1000 with a special "bullet cam" POV. It's not a monetized channel or anything. Enjoy!!

Very cool! How does that "bullet cam POV" work?

It uses a camera man on the projectile.... one short enough to squeeze between the lands and grooves.

I assume he has to jump off just prior to impact? And I hope the shooter at least goes down and gives him a lift back to the line. 1000 yards would be a helluva walk for someone with little short legs like that.

or somebody with a camera and a golf cart drive from the bench to the targets (or a drone) and then you speed it up and insert that video in between the shot and the gong.

Easy.

Actually if you look though, it looks like there is a wire running out to the end of the barrel, which I assume is a camera lens. I figured it was some kind of an app with a digital zoom that may or may not have been sped up after recording.

How is a midget going to get a business going with you publishing trade secrets like that?

 

[574hondarider]

Lol. Good guesses. Flew my drone down before I started shooting, then had a cam on me and one on the target at 1000. after I pull the trigger I inserted the drone flight and speed it up alot in my editing software.

Legislate a body cam for it.

You seem doubtful.

Have you ever seen a bearded lady?

Nice job. A few more years of experience and it might be as good as Hornady's Bullet cam.

Aw man, I was really hoping the tiny little photographer riding the bullet was gonna be the correct answer. I has a sad.

 

[Tactically Fat]

Awesome!

Tikka is the best bang for your buck target / LR rifle on the market right now. Change my mind.

Oh how I'd LOVE to be able to get into LR shooting. *sigh* But make mine 6.5CM, please.

This was my first thought when I saw this thread. My daughters boyfriend that was in active duty military overseas thought this was for real. Sent me the link when it first came out, told me he planned on ordering some. I had to remind him what day it was.

I'm guessing you don't watch the Marvel movies? That's Paul Rudd who plays Ant-Man in the Marvel movies...he shrinks down to the size of an ant.

Think how long it would take to edit out the spin...

I figured the little tiny photographer would have to do some kind of log-rolling maneuver to keep up with the spin.
