Going Long: Improving Your Skills at a High Elevation Precision Rifle Course

“What exactly do you consider to be long range?”  That’s a good question and it is truly subjective. If you have a Ruger 10/22 in your hands, 100 yards is long range. If you’re shooting at a whitetail with a Remington 870 loaded with slugs, an 87 yard shot is long range. However, when you … Read more

Gun Review: Ruger Precision Rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor

Ruger’s Precision Rifle created quite the buzz when it was announced. As a tech guy by day, I shudder every time I hear phrases like “paradigm shift,” but to look at Ruger’s newest rifle, you’d be hard pressed to find a different phrase to describe what they’ve done.
