The caliber of the round is 6.5x47, hand loaded.  
Awesome video aside from the music.  
When you watch, you’ll see the bullets move through the air at high velocity, causing a vapor trail.

The shooter shoots up to 1,500 yards at steel, and then peanut butter jars and eggs at lower distances (500 and 300yds, respectively, if I recall).

It’s just inspirational to encourage people to become better shooters. Lots of training, calculations, and knowledge of the rifle system to get that type of shooting.

When he hits the egg that fell off the holder, that is amazing. Great shooting.
