    Wood stock in wet weather and extreme elements

    When I was 16 a gunsmith had a 300 wm Parker Hale that the stock split right behind the bolt. It was new but for some reason he did not want to send it back. He talked me into buying it cheap and letting him glass bed the stock. I used that rifle for years taking deer, elk, coyotes and...

    Recommendations for first AR-15

    When I decided I had to have an AR15 was during the Obama shortage. My best option was to build my own. Since then I have built many and helped many people build their own. For the same or similar price a person can have a custom, high quality firearm that will do all you ask. The thought...

    wolves or no wolves

    I saw a wolf and two pups in 1979 just outside the east side Yellowstone. They were there and in sufficient numbers to reproduce. Now the giants they INTRODUCED from Canada have made our local ones extinct. Someone made a bunch of money and screwed all the rest of us.

    Empty AR15 receiver...What upper should I buy or build for a 300 yard deer AR?

    I built 6.8 SPC for myself and my two sons back when it was easier to get components for them than the 6.5 Grendel. We have killed many deer with them at ranges of 50 to 150 yards with no problems. My current favorite is a 16" AR15Performance that is very light and handy. Fortunately I had...

    This month was my first time ever hunting... Ever.

    Great story. Thank you for sharing! I am always impressed with people who get themselves into hunting and sounds like you did a good job for your first hunt. Amazing is it not how intense the split second decisions are???
