I have a Leupold 1.5x5 on my Ruger #1 in 9.3x74R. Works fine for me. Safe shooting.

I have been following all of the D Day timeline events and sipping whisky (VAT 69) in solemn remembrance of those great warriors. They set the standards that we should all strive to emulate.

At about this time, paratroopers began to fill the skies….

Jedburghs and US Paratroopers

At this time 80 years ago, OSS Jedburgh Teams and US and British Paratroopers were flying towards their targets in France and boats loaded with ground forces were crossing the English Channel. Let us never forget their sacrifices and heroism.

I have been following all the celebrations live on Instagram. It appears as if France has more love and pride for our veterans and their sacrifices than the US does. About this time in the UK 80 years ago, final briefings, pre combat inspections and pre jump were being conducted. My Uncle was...

Double rifles are like women. They are beautiful, wonderful to hold, stubborn, picky and expensive. :LOL::LOL: This Merkel 9.3x74R is the only one that has survived my life changes. I have killed everything from turkey to eland with it. Safe hunting

Great videos on YouTube and the FTW Ranch did a really good review as well. Just talked to the "BRX1 Guy" at the Beretta Gallery. Several calibers to include 30-06, .223 and .243 will be available (hopefully) later this year as well as wooden stocks. Safe shooting

Why was I interested in the BRX1? I want to try a straight pull rifle and it is priced along the same lines as several other common rifle brands. I have trouble paying the Blaser prices for that much ugly. In my experience, quality QD mount systems make the Blaser barrel scope mount...

I have made several calls to dealers, and nobody knows if or when it will be available in 30-06. Dallas dealer promised a call back. Odd that they wouldn't roll out a new rifle in the US in 30-06. Safe shooting

I called Beretta today. In short, I know more about their products than the customer rep I spoke with. I asked will the BRX1 be available in 30-06 or a caliber change kit available in 30-06. He said, "it is already out." My reply "where? It's not on your website or with any distributor."...

Best wishes and prayers for a healthy recovery.

You really should use your beautiful Ferlach O/U. Just work up a lighter 22 Hipower load. Safe hunting
