Show notes
Join us as we break down the latest innovations from SHOT Show 2025 and dive deep into what separates foundational shooters from advanced precision riflemen. Steve shares his first-time SHOT Show experience, covering game-changing gear from Proof Armory, Manners folding rifles, Vortex's new rangefinding binos, and Leupold's impressive spotter scope. Then we shift gears to discuss training philosophy: What does it really mean to be "advanced"? We explore the systematic approach to precision shooting, the importance of making fundamentals subconscious, and why having a process matters more than having the latest gear.
