    If there's one item every gun owner will have a need for at some point and time, it's an effective way to safely and securely hold their firearm. Mounting optics, cleaning the bore, adjusting sights, bore-sighting, etc. are all much easier tasks to accomplish when the firearm is securely held in place. Enter the Tipton Best Gun Vise.

    The Best Gun Vise features three supports that can be adjusted vertically as well as laterally along a t-track in the base. This allows the vise to hold most any type of firearm including AR-15's, break-actions, bolt-actions, lever-actions, handguns, and most anything else. The flexibility of the design combined with the well thought-out adjustments truly allow the Best Gun Vise to live up to the old adage, "one ...

    As many of you already know, last year I received a Model 210 FT turkey shotgun from Savage. I have been quite pleased with it so far. It aims well, cycles reliably and isn't overly heavy. About the only thing that I found a little disappointing was the patterning of the factory choke tube. Since turkey season is upon us again, it was time to improve that situation. ...

    Turkey hunting has become quite popular throughout most of the United States and Canada. Successful conservation and management by the federal, state, provincial, and local wildlife agencies as well as hunters has provided more turkeys than ever before. With all the interest shown towards the sport, it's no wonder that most firearms companies have at least one ...

    Over the past three years I have reviewed a number of Savages more feature laden models, but to date I have yet to put one of their entry level models through our testing. I decided to change that and this month offer a Model 111GL chambered in .25-06 Remington. The Model 111GL falls ...

    I don't know how many times I buy a rifle just to take it home so I can start customizing it. First I change the trigger. Then I have to change the bolt handle. Then before long I'm changing the stock for a model that's more comfortable and the list goes on and on. Before I'm finished, I have more invested in it than if I would have purchased a rifle that's already customized to my liking. ...

    Over the last 25 plus years, I've reloaded with nearly every reloading tool available in that time frame. I'm an inveterate trader and tinkerer and make no apologies for it. It keeps me interested and knowledgeable. I seem to end up with all the ...

    As you can see, the P-3 Monopod is loaded with features making it very user friendly.

    Every once in a while, a new product comes along that deserves a good looking at. The P-3 monopod from CTK Precision is just such a product. Most of us rely on a good front rest and rear bag combination to achieve accuracy from the bench, or a bipod and beanie baby rear ...

    I recently had an opportunity to give one of PDC Customs aluminum chassis rifle stocks a run on a short action Savage. PDC Custom manufactures stocks in the USA from 6061 aluminum bar stock, very strong stuff, I can assure you. They are available in several colors with a few options that should fit into just about any shooting situation.
