Read More →Ever watched a shoot-em-up movie and wished you could have that endless-ammo option that the “good guy guns” all seem to have? You know what I’m talking about–the guns that never, ever seem to need reloading unless there’s a plot point to be made around it? It may just be “pulp fiction” but that doesn’t…

This revolutionary bolt-action rifle is designed to redefine long-range shooting power and…
The Ruger Precision Rifle, often referred to as the “RPR,” has been a mainstay of the precision rifle shooting community since its introduction in 2015. That’s a big statement, because the precision rifle shooting community is pickier than a 600-yard shot in a 15-mph wind. After years of feedback from competitive shooters, the RPR is…

The all-metal Baby Eagle engendered the third-generation, polymer-framed Baby Eagle III, the lightest and most refined Baby Eagle yet. In this review, I’m taking…
