    taking aim

    The last time I qual'd was about 6 years ago, so forgive my memory... Ranges are set up with lanes much wider than what you would have been used to. The ranges we routinely shot at DIX were separated by a treeline to separate lanes. Targets pop up anywhere from 50 to 300 meters, for a specified...

    Surface cracks/splits in stock

    Well, all is well that ends well. This morning I was comparing "crack" photos (taken on Friday), to what the stock currently looked like and it was obvious the splits had lengthened. I mentioned this concern to the builder and the builder stepped up, without my provocation, and insisted...

    7 months wait worth every second....TVM Lancaster

    Very nice, Matt! And a "shooter" too. Looks like you hit a homerun with that rifle! I literally just got off the phone with Toni before I popped into this forum. She's a pleasure to deal with. Simply put; the woman redefines customer service. That's almost the rifle I've been envisioning...
