Video is uploading now! Join Possumblaster for 5 minutes of blasting zombies from 50 meters to 600 meters. It should be up within the hour to the Youtube channel. On the 600m shots you can actually see the bullet fly through the air and strike the target. Hope to see you there! Direct link will be posted here upon upload completion. Do you find this valuable?

Very nice!Although, if I may be so bold, for the bloodthirsty crowd-pleaser: use pumpkins or watermelons for effect. I would like to use shotguns in the 20-30 ft range on pumpkins & melons to demo blast. Do you find this valuable? |

"Good video and I'm with MajorDamage would be nice to see some melon shooting."I'll definitely be on the look out for some melons of some sort before my next video. Would a litter of fuzzy kittens suffice?? J/K!!!!!! Thanks for the input. Do you find this valuable? |

"Would a little of fuzzy kittens suffice?? J/K!!!!!!"Now that you mention it... Anyway, it was a great video. *MUCH* better than I could do with my lack of video taking skills. Also, nice Rem. What's it chambered in? Do you find this valuable? |

"Now that you mention it...Thanks! The Rem 700 is chambered in .223. I am trying to keep as many guns in .223 as possible, because that is the caliber that I am reloading/stockpiling. I would have gotten a .308, but honestly I'll never shoot further than 600 yards anyways. For me personally, .223 fits the bill. If I lived in, lets say, Kansas on the plains then I would definitely go with the .308. Not because of the extra damage, but because of the extra range that .308 would provide. Where I live range is really limited due to the hills and trees. Do you find this valuable? |

Nice hits, glad to see that you dispatched those zeds for us ^_^I like the idea of pumpkins, but melons are great if you can get 'em. Also if you can find a handgun, I'd like to see some potshots with them. Do you find this valuable? |

"Post 7"I hear you. *metaphorically* I only have the .243 because I hunt for white tails, and I heard that it was rather tough to use a .223 on one. But yes, the channel is coming along nicely. Do you find this valuable? |

Nice shots, especially considering it's a .223 at that range. Is this the stuff you loaded in the other videos?Do you find this valuable? |

"Nice hits, glad to see that you dispatched those zeds for us ^_^Thanks, yeah I'm thinking for my next one I'll use a watermelon for his head. I am not sure if .223 will do anything to the melon though, especially because I am using full metal jacket bullets. I'll try it though Also I'd like to point out something that this video shows: Heat distortion. If you notice in the last section of the video at 600 meters, the heat from the ground actually distorts what you see. The camera is perfectly still but you can kind of see everything waving around a little. That's from the heat bending the light. It starts to become noticeable at 500 meters plus. It can mess with ranging targets, and also with shot placement. Do you find this valuable? |

"Nice shots, especially considering it's a .223 at that range. Is this the stuff you loaded in the other videos?Thanks, and yes all bullets that I shoot are my handloads. I can't say if they were the exact rounds from the video on the channel or not, but every load I make is the same. I found a load that works and have stuck with it for months now. The stuff that is store-bought is packaged up and stays in the safe. I'm saving that for only in case I run out of components for my handloads. (And the store-bought stuff just isn't as good to be honest.) Do you find this valuable? |

Well if you can't get melons, milk jugs work, or even the liter bottles of soda.What'd be nice is if someone could get a hat or shoulder cam and film a clearing video. Do you find this valuable? |

Perhaps next time I head out to the desert to go shooting I'll bring the camera and kill some melons with the shotgun.
