We all go to the range with hopes of besting our last time out. What happens when you finally do? Let’s say your significant other shoots an amazing group, then you follow suit, and get it all on camera: what do you do then? It’s what we always dream of, but never seems to happen. […]

Shots Fired: Spike’s Tactical Roadhouse AR-10: GBguns Video
Not long ago we brought you an up-close look at the Roadhouse AR-10 in .308 from Spike’s Tactical. Ambidextrous controls and no detail overlooked describes this battle tank of a rifle.

Ammunition: Is bullet weight or bullet quality more important?
In the never-ending search for slightly more accuracy we’ve all heard that X brand is better than Y brand, or to only use X-weight bullets with Y twist rate. I had always believed that until a recent test with the Ranger Proof rifle when we saw great accuracy with projectiles that traditional logic would argue […]
Ranger Proof Rifle Testing UPDATE ~ Video
Accuracy testing is always a tough one to believe. It seems that everyone gets different results, and that’s with good reason. If you read our earlier piece about accuracy testing you’d know that there are so many variables that it can be very difficult to be fair. Shooter ability aside, wind, ammunition, temperature, target choice, […]
