Bruce seems like a genuinely humble, and likable guy

Bruce is a great guy,  he's absorbed so much information in a short time.  Kuddos to him for being able to separate the good from bad, and turning it into success!

Good to see Bruce on here. His channel is very informative.

Glad y’all talked! I’ve been following Bruce and his information is fantastic. Thanks Erik and Bruce.

Bruce is a super nice guy, I’ve talked with him on messenger and I like his straight forward approach without complicating the process

Mr . Teel is brilliant...next level.

I've shot and chatted with Bruce more than once on the range, thanks for the video, gentlemen!

Awesome interview mate and I follow Bruce’s channel as well and by putting both of your information together I’ve started winning some state matches down here in Western Australia, by changing just a few simple things in my 284 and my Grunt (which is an RSAUM improved) they’re seriously just hammering and if I miss the 6 ring which is our centre here I’m just not doing my part and mostly just pumping the X ring. Thanks again Erik for putting out amazing interviews and love chats man.
Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

Love listening to Bruce Teel . I shoot benchrest 300 , and i believe he has helped me.

Thanks for another informative video. I have never seen an inconsistent accuracy problem solved by a tighter neck clearance but I've seen many inconsistency problems solved by increasing clearance. I bought a gun and brass off a guy who believed in tight necks. The gun shot great and I won a fair amount of benchrest for score matches with it. He had the brass set up for  0.0015" total clearance(a bullet would not fit back down a fired neck). I like to set mine up at 0.003-4" so I decided to turn the necks to see if my belief held. The next match I shot the highest X count in 4 years with a 6mm. 300(30 shots in or touching a 0.500" circle and 22X(22x of the 30 touching a 0.080" dot.). The average distance from the center of the bullet to dead center point of aim over 30 shots was 0.137"(or 0.00155" if you use the edge of the bullet). I keep detailed X and Y data(distance from perfect center shot) for every target I shoot and these three targets were the best the rifle had ever shot by a significant margin and gone was the occasional unexplained "flier".  You need a clean/consistent bullet release and unless your brass has perfectly consistent neck thickness the easiest way to ensure this happens is to give the neck adequate clearance.  I re-chambered a guys hummer barrel  which had a 268 neck in it with a .271-2 neck reamer. He decided to try keeping his old brass which now had 0.008" clearance. The brass has powder residue down past the shoulder and is more accurate than it was before. These are obviously anecdotal but I can think of at least a half dozen instances right off the bat where increasing neck clearance to the point that a bullet will slide into a fired case without resistance has made the gun more accurate and more consistent. It almost always results in better SD/ES as well. At the end of the day every rifle is different and different bullets and calibers can like different things. There are so many variables in the process that it's very hard to say anything is going to work 100% in every rifle and for every loader.

The neck sealing paradigm is interesting. It would be interesting to see if their is a relationship between the neck powder ring and a hummer barrel

Glad you did this interview.  I follow Bruce and he seems to keep it simple and wins.

Yayyyyyy!!!! Mr. Teal is not only a fantastic shooter but the nicest guy.

He is a real mellow fellow, real easy talking man

Such a great interview and seems like such a great guy.

Another great interview.  These champion to champion interviews show common themes in becoming a champion.  I would like to see an interview with Dave Gullo a multiple BPCR champion including multiple Quigley Match champion.  You and Dave have much in common, both:
- Turned your avocation into a vocation.
-  Manufacture popular accessories for the shooting sports that are used by championship shooters.
-  Freely share information with shooters like myself
- Are always at the top of page one for your matches
- Support shooting matches at the prize table.
- Use a front rest
- Require extreme skill to shoot well in the wind
- Shoot custom rifles and finely tuned cartridges
- Compete at Ben Avery

Surely both of you have stories about the pitfalls and joy of making a business out of what you used to do only for fun.  
You could share the mindset of a champion.

Dave is available at Buffalo Arms Company in Ponderay, Idaho.

This was totally entertaining and informative! Thankyou Bruce and Erik!!

Great talk Erik and Bruce,throughly enjoyed this. Plus it’s nice to know that I’m not the only one who enjoys testing and load development! 😂

Bruce gave my most favorite conversation.  What a good genuine, and sincere man. I'd help him with any information or tactics I could. He's earned the key to the gates of heaven. He's not hiding anything!

Our skills as an individual separate  us in competition.  So all else equal, may the best man win.

What's awesome is players at the top of their game can have differences in theory and practice, and both produce great results.

I hope Bruce uncovers the fruits of the tuner.

Lol they still have their secrets though! They really don't reveal all, as long as it is serving them, they want that edge.
