In this two-part episode, Jamie Dotson dives headfirst into the evolving world of pre-fit barrels—what they are, why they're gaining traction, and the fine line between true gunsmithing and prosumer assembly. With insights sparked by Backfire TV’s latest exposé, Jamie breaks down the business models behind high-priced “custom” rifles and the real cost of precision.

Then, in a brand-new series, Jamie explores one of the most fascinating phenomena in long-range shooting: how brand new shooters, with zero experience, often outperform seasoned veterans. What can experienced marksmen learn from complete beginners? A lot more than you'd think.

This is a must-listen episode that challenges industry norms and inspires growth—whether you're building rifles or building skill.
