I like this video, just dang glad it isn't me!
Anybody know where this video was shot? Pakistan maybe? It's the only place I can think of where they build fine rifles,wear traditional dress,but don't shoot at us,much.

It was shot (no pun intended) in the site owners underground shooting range in Dubai City, UAE. There is a reloading room attached also. You can see it if you log on to accuratereloading.com.

Wow!!!!! Looks Like FUN!!!!

It does look like fun...I would be interested to see how a person with better form than most of those guys handles the recoil. I will volunteer myself for the test

I dont like muzzle breaks but I have to admit this looks like
a perfict place for one, and also a 15 lb rifle.

And I have to agree with Forester about there shooting form,
some werent even holding it tight against there sholder and
they paid the price for it.

And with a whopping 269.8 ft/lbs of recoil this thing will detach
a retina very fast ending ones shooting career .

And think of this thing with a scope mounted on it. How much
eye relief would you need ?

The eyes can handle 100+ ft/lbs but not for long. A good frend and
a fine gunsmith has detached the retina in his right eye from shooting
to many big magnums.

It is not cool to blow your eyes out from to much recoil.

that looks most painful, but I'd probably still try it at least once. BTW, it's retina, not reticle
