Kibler Longrifle kits?
Beautiful rifle. Muzzleloaders are foreign to me except for new inlines, and I've built a few smokeless ones for customers. I recently had a local organization ask me to "build" a traditional muzzleloader for a raffle. I've ordered a Traditions kit (starting out on the cheap), but in the last...- AssawomanGunsmith

Norma Bondstrike Ammo?
I've taken a few whitetail does with it in 6.5prc, didn't recover a single bullet, but all one-shot drops.- AssawomanGunsmith

Grandpa's 30-06
Awesome rifle! I make my living building new rifles, but you just can't beat a rifle that has a "feel" and a story to it when you pick it up. I was lucky enough to inherit my grandfather's Win Model 94 in 30WCF when my father passed away; it's what I shot my first deer with, and I get that warm...- AssawomanGunsmith

I had OC spray and a taser as well as a pistol; I didn't want to use either but carried all. I view the bear spray, pistol, and...- AssawomanGunsmith

New Bolt Action Rifle Recommendations
Tikka, or if you can stretch a little more, I'd go with a Benelli Lupo. There's a Walnut model with the BE.S.T. finish- a very accurate rifle that looks great- and you don't have to worry about rust.- AssawomanGunsmith

Elk bullet in Grizzly country
I'm currently working up the load I'll be hunting with this fall in Wyoming for bull elk. I am trying some loads with 180gr Barnes TTSX, as I've had great luck in the past with other rifles(this year I'll be shooting a Benelli Lupo chambered in 300 Win Mag), and the thought of having to use the...- AssawomanGunsmith

Cow elk rifle
If everything is equal between the rifles (weight, accuracy, your confidence), I'd take the 280AI but take whatever you shoot the best.- AssawomanGunsmith
