    Fun in the Dark!

    Every since I hunted in South Africa, I have been wanting a solid way to shoot a specialty pistol, especially a center-grip single-shot out to 500 yards (Keep the shots under 10"), from the standing position, using a tri-pod quickly. I have used hog/pig saddles, and items like it, Arca rails on...

    25 Creed Dominator= Dead Elk

    Being able to hunt with a good Christian Brother is a wonderful privilege. I can easily say there is no way I would’ve shot this cow elk, if I had been hunting alone. It has been my desire for some time, to take an elk with one of my BCG Pachmayr Dominators. That desire was fulfilled last...

    2-Kauger Arms Black Widows Draw First Blood: 250 & 754 Yards

    Dan Ekstrom and I applied as a group for an early season tag south of Lander, Wyoming. We were both going for a bigger buck than what we had shot previously or maybe a freak. I can easily say there was no way I could’ve done this without Dan’s help. As of Wednesday, I was eight weeks out of my...

    Moving 10" target at 700 yards=Fun with a couple of SP's

    Glenn and I went out a couple of weeks ago to Mac’s Gunworks for some trigger therapy. It was a lot of fun, even though the wind was very challenging at times. I shot out to 1200 yards successfully with my rear grip Kauger Arms 22 GT. Glenn shot his center-grip XP-100 in 22 Creedmoor. Both of...

    Blaser R93 HHS (375 H&H & 308 Win)

    I was able to purchase what is a unicorn specialty pistol for me. Blaser R93 HHS with two 14" barrels (375 H&H and 308 Winchester). I remember seeing an article or two about these years ago. Since that time I have looked off and on to no avail. The 375 H&H barrel has one of Holland's older...

    Finally filled that elk tag!

    Sometimes what you think is going to be a relatively easy and quick hunt, turns into a longer process. This has been the case, to fill my cow/calf elk tag this year. I thought I might be having tag soup this year. The number of bulls I could've killed, at relatively short range was beyond me. A...

    A little bolt action specialty pistol mentoring

    The level of accuracy hunters/shooters attain, is due to some teaching or lack of it-You have to get the fundamentals down. Sometimes the level of accuracy at short or long ranges is also dependent on the weapon's capabilities, and how easy it is to shoot as well. Add those two together, with a...

    On Friday I went out to Mac's Gunworks to zero and get some drops out to 500 yards with my two Pachmayr Dominator's. These both have long eye pistol scopes on them with external turrets. It is very difficult to shoot accurately at distance with just holding over. With a 1911 frame and trigger...
