Consequences Of An Improperly Set-Up Rifle

Why Am I Missing My Shots?

I just upgraded to a new barreled action, scope, and chassis, but I'm struggling to stay on target after each shot. I’m having trouble spotting my impacts and misses, and I’m still pulling shots.

Here’s the good news: it might not be a skill issue—it could be a rifle setup issue. In this video, two pro shooters with completely different rifle setups swap rifles and demonstrate how dramatically an improperly set up rifle can affect your shots. They’ll also show you how to identify the issue and make the necessary adjustments to get back on track.
