    Help needed. First day on the range.

    BlueRidge Length of Pull

    I keep hearing people say that rifle is 1/2 inch to long or to short length of pull. Or the measurement from the trigger finger to the bend of the elbow is your length of pull. That measurement is simply that, a measurement. I am a NSCA shot gunning instructor and fit shotguns to my students...

    It just followed me home!

    I was told the ones made when the company was going out of business had terrible fitting of wood to metal. I was also told those made in Missouri were better than the Utah models. This one seems pretty good but not like a custom. The stock looks like a fine piece of expensive furniture and...

    It just followed me home!

The .320 can also be used in a .31 1849 cap and ball. I shoot both out of my TC cherokee without problems. I have to have a...
