    UK gunsmiths and custom rifle builders refusing to work on Bergara rifles because of their poor quality

    I've seen both, I've seen guns at all price points arrive both wet with oil/preserve and bone dry, always a good reason to clean/lube any new gun. I've seen ugly barrel defects in basically every major brand out there, even high dollars guns with accuracy guarantees. Rust is pretty rare, but...

    UK gunsmiths and custom rifle builders refusing to work on Bergara rifles because of their poor quality

    Had this happen to a buddy with another company, it was pretty minor and not internal to the barrel so he cleaned it up and lived with it. It's a good lesson though, always, always inspect before acceptance. If it's at a gun store or a FFL, etc. I know a lot of guys now that since a good...

    UK gunsmiths and custom rifle builders refusing to work on Bergara rifles because of their poor quality

    It's true, but not just on the negative, the positive as well. You'd be amazed how many manufacturing employees, reps and sponsored shooters are on forums and sites posting overly positive things/reviews about the brands they are paid/sponsored to represent in an overly positive light. One of...

    UK gunsmiths and custom rifle builders refusing to work on Bergara rifles because of their poor quality

    These days QC is suffering everywhere in just about every industry more than in the past simply because it costs less to do less and it's all about profits, especially as more and more gun companies become owned not by gun folks, but investment groups. Sometimes lack of QC is as simple as not...

    Sako S20?

    I have one in 300 that seems to struggle for accuracy, been struggling to get Beretta to respond to have them look at it. Done all the usual things, checked all the torques, several match ammo options in light and heavy weights, different rests, shooters, changed to a proven optic/mount etc...

    Caffeine versus Accuracy?

    From various sources/coaches growing up in competitive shooting do what your body is used to. If it's used to 2 cups of coffee do that, if it's used to no coffee do that. You're body acclimates to stimulants, more or less than your body is used to will have negative effects. Try to not...

    To clean your gun or not to clean your gun-thats my question

    Empirically is the only way to know, if you are cleaning based on anything other than actually testing each rifle for what it wants in it's cleaning you are doing it "wrong". You either want to clean for accuracy or consistent velocity depending on your use. This will vary by caliber...
