Carry Your Precision Rifles
Without casting any stones, I just want to make a pretty basic but often overlooked point: It doesn’t matter if your rifle is green, or “tactical”, or has a DOD model name assigned to it. If you don’t ever carry your precision rig, it’s a bench-rest rifle. And you are a bench rest shooter. And there is absolutely nothing wrong …
Mossberg 185D
So while visiting Shooters Supply I saw a goofy shotgun that I would have bought. Should have bought. Which I could’ve bought! If it hadn’t already been spoken for. A bolt-action shotgun. You read that right. And it gets better. With…a detachable, box magazine. Specifically the Mossberg Model 185D. It’s a nifty 20 gauge, bolt-action shotgun. Probably not something that …

Deer Stand From Heaven
While checking trails on the property last week, the sun just happened to glint off a red object to my right. It looked like a pipe. Upon further inspection it turns out to be an old deer stand that had fallen during the last storm. Which is why I was checking trails…looking for downed trees. It seems this stand has …
Federal 243 Soft-Point
So with the new chassis and suppressor, it is time to fine tune the zero. Especially considering I have switched ammo. Typically I was shooting PPU 243. But I had heard some good things about the Federal 100g soft-points, I we decided to give them a try. The good news is it’s literally ammo I can find almost anywhere. At …
Blaser BD14 Bockdrilling
Ok. Some of you may be asking, “What in the heck is a Bockdrilling?” Easy. It’s a single shotgun, and 2 rifle barrel setup. I thought this one was kinda neat since it had some pretty practical calibers involved. A 20 gauge. A 308. And a 22 Hornet. If you think about it? That’s a combination that get’s quite a …
GRS Ragnarok Overview of Features
Ok. We have had some time with and behind the GRS Ragnarok chassis and are really impressed. This system is a major upgrade for the Blaser R8 and R93 system of rifles. Especially if you are more interested in the tactical and precision styles of shooting. Since the chassis is so feature rich, it just made more sense to …
