    Hi from PA


    Newbie here, just starting out with Savages, but been shooting 40 years and loading 30. And I am a lefty.

    As my handle says I have spent a lot of time in archery over the past 20+ years, owned a shop and competed successfully in national 3-D in the '90s and early 2000s. Now that my kids are a little bigger but too small to hunt archery, I started getting back to firearms. I picked up a package youth 11 7mm-08 in 2012 but just got my first project gun last week. It's a 110 GLXP, pre-Accutrigger, 30-06 (for now) and it's starting its journey.

    I got a lot to learn, but I think I am in the right place.

    Welcome aboard. We have a friendly email match each month (rules linked below). We'd love to have you and your children join us as you wring out your rifles and improve your skills. I've found that a little friendly competition really motivates new shooters to practice, and more experienced shooters to work out the bugs.
