Pass it on!

Posted on December 15, 2015 by Oleg Volk

It’s good to be a competitive shooter, like Dani Bryan-Nickens for Team CZ Forum. It’s even better to also pass on the skills and the mindset to the next generation. That Volquartsen Scorpion is worth a lot more in competent … Continue reading →

Trijicon MRO in use

Posted on December 7, 2015 by Oleg Volk

Smith & Wesson MP15-22 with cut down Plinker Tactical magazines (35 rounds down to 20, for shooting prone). The sight is Trijicon MRO provided to Alexis by the maker. I was quite impressed with it — the controls are simple … Continue reading →

All in a day’s fun

Posted on November 30, 2015 by Oleg Volk

Alexis proved herself a competent gun safety instructor. The SVD 7.62×54 rifle was fun, but the optic on top is no Trijicon… And then there’s the wait to load up the SAW and get to hammering the targets…

Competitive 10-22 shooter

Posted on November 26, 2015 by Oleg Volk

Halley, one of the Chamberlains — a family with both parents and all three kids competing in rimfire steel challenge. They all prefer open sights to optics. And the typical result of her efforts:

A family that shoots together

Posted on November 21, 2015 by Oleg Volk

These three youngsters, along with their parents, are among the top competitive steel shooters in the US. I had a great time doing photos of this cohesive and accomplished family.

Mossberg 144 magazines

Posted on October 1, 2015 by Oleg Volk

I have come to the conclusion that I need more magazines for that rifle. I have old 7 and 8 round magazines, and three newer 10-rounders…but all are starting to wear out. A good friend adjusted them for me, but … Continue reading →

Feeding the Savage Rascal

Posted on September 29, 2015 by Oleg Volk

Savage Rascal is one of my favorite little rifles. It’s accurate enough with iron sights, but really shines with a scope. Two things make it better. 1)Rings of appropriately low height. 2)Some way to carry spare ammunition.   And, of … Continue reading →

Good craftsmen merit better tools

Posted on September 25, 2015 by Oleg Volk

Alexis has been progressing quickly with a 22-45, now she’s upgrading to a Volquartsen Scorpion, courtesy of the generous sponsor. The RMR is a loaner, pending a more permanent solution. Extended, sprung floorplates are made by TK. She seems pleased … Continue reading →

Volquartsen solution for the left-handed.

Posted on August 26, 2015 by Oleg Volk

Volquartsen Ultra Lite .22 is an awesome rifle, but the thumbhole stock is fairly long and designed purely for right-handed users. Fortunately, one minute with a screwdriver puts on an even lighter Hogue stock which is shorter and ambidextrous. Add … Continue reading →

Savage Rascal, scoped

Posted on August 25, 2015 by Oleg Volk

I’ve written about Savage Rascal before. It’s one of my favorite little rifles, tiny enough for kids but built well enough for adults to use as well. I use mine with the default peep sight and that’s good enough for … Continue reading →

Why have a light rifle?

Posted on July 23, 2015 by Oleg Volk

To carry the balance of the weight in ammunition, of course! Volquartsen Ultralite .22 action in Blackhawk Axiom stock. The sight is a C-More attached sideways in a custom mount. Black Dog Machine drum with 50 rounds. And a Ruger 22/45 Lite … Continue reading →
