    Nebo PROTEC Long Gun Mount with Rail System Review

    The Nebo PROTEC Long Gun Mount with Rail System is an all-purpose mount for lasers and lights on most any rifle, shotgun or scope. For $17 it seemed worth a try as I have a couple new 870’s and I wanted to get lights on them.

    6.8 SPC II Custom Build Rifle

    There have been countless wildcat cartridges over the years.  One recent trend has been the various efforts to modify the standard AR15 to shoot a heavier, more lethal bullet.  The crazy hype surrounding the 300 Blackout is but one example.  For my money, the 6.8 SPC is the best of the lot for general all-around…

    Yesterday I had one of those days, the kind where you couldn’t hit the ground in front of your own feet with anything you fired. So last night I sat around glum and skipped Saturday night beers to make sure I would be fresh and ready to redeem myself today. It went alright, not awesome but at…

    Budget Optics: The Sightmark 3X Magnifier

    We have a lot of articles on super expensive optics around here. That’s all well and good and I enjoy reading about that stuff too. I own some relatively pricey stuff but understand not wanting to shell out $3000 for a scope of some kind. I can’t shoot any better with a $3000 scope than…
