The Savage 110 RF Elite Precision takes the full-size Model 110 concept into.22 LR with serious competition hardware, a clever reversible bolt throw, and impressive accuracy. After two months of range work and varmint hunting, the bigger question is whether all that performance is enough to justify its $2,399.00 MSRP. Savage’s new 110 RF product lineup aims to fill the niche market of precision .22 LR rifles. This market is typically pursued by demanding competitive shooters, and/or equally demanding range-therapy attendees like you. The 110 RF Elite Precision is the highest trim, and most expensive model currently available from Savage.…

Three years ago, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel investigative reporter John Diedrich unveiled a project called Behind the Gun. Unlike many, if not most, projects of its kind, Diedrich’s series wasn’t about promoting gun control in the guise of gun safety or blaming the gun lobby and Second Amendment advocates for the actions of violent criminals.  Instead, Diedrich explored what gun owners themselves are doing to reduce firearm-related deaths, why more people are choosing to exercise their Second Amendment rights, and the trainers and instructors who are helping them do so safely and responsibly. Even though the series…

The PTR-91 puts the HK G3’s roller-delayed Cold War muscle back in your hands, complete with hard-running reliability, excellent iron sights, flying brass, and accuracy that still earns respect at 100 yards. Why the HK G3 Still Matters in an AR-Crazy World You might ask yourself why the H&K G3 matters. Here in the U.S., we sometimes have AR myopia and forget there are other rifle designs besides the AR. The G3 is one of those designs, and once you get outside the AR bubble, its influence is impossible to ignore. Over 70 countries equipped their forces with a G3,…

A CIA contractor, a 9mm Glock, two dead gunmen, and an international crisis turned Lahore into something that sounded straight out of Jason Bourne. The difference was that Ray Davis was real, and real life got substantially messier. Jason Bourne Was Fiction. Ray Davis Was Not. Jason Bourne was a fictional American CIA operative smitten with dissociative amnesia originally invented by the master spy novelist Robert Ludlum. Across twenty-two books, five feature films, and a TV series, this highly-trained covert operator travels the globe killing bad guys and just generally being awesome. I do love me some Bourne. However, I…

Maine has a long history of being pro-gun, at least up until recent years. Sure, it’s been a blue state for a very long time, but the outdoor heritage coupled with low crime helped stave off the anti-gun push for generations. It wasn’t until Lewiston that everything changed there, which is a shame. But not everyone is thrilled with gun control, and in the race for the Second Congressional District, candidates from both parties are claiming to be the champion for gun rights.There are reasons to doubt one of them, though.Former Governor Paul LePage has…

The Strait of Hormuz is, by some accounts, named for a Zoroastrian deity destined to emerge victorious after a 9,000-year standoff with an adversary. Iran’s leaders feel their own victory is at hand and won’t require the same epic patience. They are betting that military pressure will ultimately force the United States to accept their control over the crucial waterway for global energy — and that time is on their side. They know about the diminishing stockpiles of key U.S. weapons such as advanced missile interceptors. They know the war is deeply unpopular with Americans. They know that as long…

Virginia felons could soon automatically regain the right to vote once their sentences have been completed, if voters in the Old Dominion approve a referendum that will be on the ballot this fall.  The talking points and even AI summaries about the referendum, though, are incredibly misleading. For instance, if you ask Google Gemini what the referendum is all about, you get this reply:If passed, this constitutional amendment will automatically restore voting and civil rights to citizens upon their release from incarceration for a felony, removing the decision from the governor’s sole discretion. A recent editorial…

Military families in five major communities account for an outsize share of the children still waiting for care across the Defense Department’s sprawling child care system. Hawaii, the National Capital Region, Norfolk, San Antonio and San Diego represented more than one-third of the almost 9,000 children whose need for care had not been met by the date their parents requested it, according to a Government Accountability Office report released in June. The Pentagon defines “unmet need” more narrowly than a general waitlist: It counts children who have reached the date when their parents said care was required but still have…
