Can a Pastor Beat a Navy SEAL at Skeet Shooting?

Shawn Ryan Show

A pastor and Navy SEAL Sean Ryan test various rifles and shotguns at a shooting range, discussing their features and performance before engaging in a skeet shooting competition with a wager involving throwing rocks.

Summary

The video features Sean Ryan, a former Navy SEAL, introducing a pastor to different firearms at a shooting range. They begin with the Sig Spear MCX 5.56, a suppressed short-barrel rifle with a magnifier optic, which the pastor enjoys shooting. Ryan then shows him a Daniel Defense rifle, which the pastor prefers, noting he likes how flat it shoots. Next, they test a 6.8 round rifle that the military is transitioning to, which the pastor describes as impressive after feeling its recoil. Ryan mentions getting a Hulu shotgun from Turkey during his time in the SEAL teams for NATO security in 2004, though he admits he thinks they're not very good. The pastor and Ryan then move to skeet shooting with the shotgun, starting with single targets and progressing to doubles. The pastor performs well initially, hitting several targets. When Ryan misses both targets in a double-shot attempt, he loses a wager that requires him to run to the edge of the range while holding his right hand on his hip and throw a rock as far as possible with his left hand. The video ends with Ryan completing the wager and thanking the pastor for coming out.

Key Insights

  • The Sig Spear MCX 5.56 uses a piston-driven system that prevents gunking up when shooting suppressed, whereas gas blowback systems jam frequently with suppressors
  • Ryan acquired a Hulu shotgun while doing sniper overwatch security for a NATO convention in Turkey in 2004, based on recommendations from other operators
  • The 6.8 round rifle that the military is transitioning to is powerful enough to punch through railroad ties
  • Ryan considers the Sig Spear MCX 5.56 his current 'end of the world rifle' after it replaced his previous go-to Daniel Defense rifle
  • The pastor successfully hit multiple skeet targets on his first attempt at skeet shooting, demonstrating natural shooting ability
