I like single shot rifles. I especially like the H&R/NEF single shots that Marlin/Remington produces. When I went looking for a .17 HMR,I only knew one thing. I wanted a heavy barrel.

One of the areas we had was a muzzleloader selection of several popular guns. The buyer for black powder had sent along a new gun that had just come in and we kind of forgot to use it until afterwards when it was just a bunch of us playing around. Some one commented that we forgot to try out the new CVA gun and so we got out the Wolf. . . . →Read More:CVA Wolf Magnum The introduction of the Remington® R-25™ is a big step for the outdoor community and the shooting sports industry.

It all boils down to one thing. “If I were to only buy one gun to do everything,which one should I buy?” . . . →Read More:Weatherby Vanguard Stainless –If you had just one rifle After years of abuse and neglect,it was time to restore the rifle I inherited. . . . →Read More:Resurecting the Champ –Restoring my Model 70 Winchester I told a couple of folks that I was getting one of these rifles to test and the basic response was,“Oh,another AR.” That opinion changed the moment I took it out of the case. . . . →Read More:Bushmaster Carbon 15 Flat top | ||||||
