ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Your hunting rifle can be a truckbox tool, or a refined instrument. Either way, you should trust it completely, and it should provide characteristics that help you—the soft tissue behind the system—close the deal at the moment of truth.
This episode discusses essential features of a great hunting rifle:
- Accuracy
- Reliablity
- Ergonomics
- Action type, feel, & function
- Trigger
- Scope features
- Backup sighting systems
Life is too short to hunt with ugly rifles, folks! (Or innaccurate, unreliable, awkward rifles...) This discussion was inspired by several failures and near-failures in the field, and we tell those stories to support our points.
ENJOY!
