Pritchard's Double Barrel Bourbon. Ohhhh myyyyyy...

Considering this shot and old Elmer Keith's 600+ yard shots with open sights, it doesn't appear handguns are "across the table" firearms like many folks like to claim. Jerry is a fun guy to watch behind the trigger!

A well-aged Romeo y Julieta Churchill paired with a generous glass of Wyoming Whisky (batch 8) qualifies as a treat to this fat ol' boy. :cool:

Mark II 22/45 and if you can find one of the limited run Custom Competitions (6 7/8" slab-sided barrel), you will not be able to blame the pistol for anything. Mine has eaten over eight thousand rounds, with the only failures being bad rounds (no priming material in the area of the rim struck by...

Well, Sheridan has an airport and sits right on I90 and it isn't too far from the I90/ I25 interchange. We get a ton of traffic from folks going to the Black Hills and the parks. Lots of bikers going to Sturgis. Right now Sheridan has zero available hotel rooms because of a big music festival...

Remember that Rossi chambers their '92 in 454 Casull. I shoot Ruger-level 45 Colt/ 300 grain loads in my Rossi carbine with fine accuracy. (Both my 45 Colt and 357 Magnum Rossi like heavy-for-caliber bullets, BTW.) The actions are quite strong, and a book load with 300-310 grain bullets should...

My 452 has given me its best 100 yard groups with some old Federal 711b. I've read mixed reviews on this ammo, but the stuff I have consistently shoots well under an inch at 100.

My finally-finished SA Champion carry piece. Ahrend's Dymandwood thin grips Ed Brown Tactical Safety Dlask short titanium and magnesium trigger Hogue aluminum mainspring housing Pretty anorexic for a 1911, but packs so sweet!

"You need 1000 foot pounds of energy to humanely kill a whitetail deer." This nonsense is even printed in most major gun rags as the gospel truth. More deer (and elk, moose, caribou, and pronghorn) have fallen to the lowly 22 LR than any cartridge with the possible exception of the 30-30. And...

Thanks, guys! For the record, the "100 rounds" was more a representative number than a hard one. I know there are weeks that I may have only fifty or even twenty. I utilize extensive dry-fire practice with handguns, but I never felt it would provide as much benefit with long guns. From the...

Monday I was ringing an IHMSA ram target with my CZ 452 at 385 yards. Once I got the dope, it was actually easy to hit. Now, I was holding off, not dialing in elevation, as my scope (Nikon Monarch 2-7X32) has nowhere near enough adjustment to dial. There was a dark patch of grass above the...

Is there a general consensus on training regimens? While I know that my skills would improve quickly shooting a hundred a day seven days a week, it's just not currently in the cards. I am on a very limited budget, but sacrifice in some areas of my life so I can get trigger time. I can probably...

A few drops of Ballistol on the brush of a bore snake and a couple drops on the "tail" when I'm ready to put the gun up. One pass from breech to muzzle. Cleans, lubes, and protects.

Some of our ranchers had a real problem with coy-dogs out here for a while. Some of those sons-of-bitches were quite large and hunted in packs, like wolves. Plus, they had very little fear of humans due to the domestic-critter branch of the family tree. I haven't seen one for about seven years...

My first choice is a Marlin 39. Accurate as a good bolt gun, smooth action, and durable as can be. Only one downside...they're a mite heavy for a rimfire. Second choice is a Henry Frontier. It has the same long octagonal barrel as their Golden Boy, but not the annoying massive drop in the...

Re: Best Small Distillery Bourbon Well, got myself four bottles of Wyoming Whiskey last Saturday...let's just say it qualifies as the most flavorful bourbon I've ever sipped. It is incredibly smooth and aromatic, clings to the glass like nothing I've ever seen, and has the cleanest finish of...

Re: The beginning of the Summer of Darwin? Ya' know what shocked me most about the article? It didn't imply that the gun "went off" or otherwise spontaneously contributed to the shooting. And the only question I have is when they say that he's brain-dead?...how can they tell? Seems like...

Re: Ruger blackhawk 44, good idea? Just see if you can find one with the Ruger Bisley grip or buy that grip frame and put it on. The Ruger Bisley grip frame is the best shape available on a single action revolver for taming recoil, period. I shoot "+P" 45 Colt loads from my Bisley Vaquero and...

Re: Mulling over paint ideas for the motorcycle. I really like the copper, but I also like yellow bikes. Take yellow and add some black graphics with a fine red pinstripe set just outside the graphic a la' the ol' Buick GSX and you've got a sharp high-viz ride! (If you ever look out over a...
