About Us

I have always had a passion for shooting. Growing up my parents didn't have guns so Boy Scout camp and trips up north were my only exposure. Around age 14 my uncle Mike took me under his wings. We started prairie dog hunting every year and shooting up north. Mike gave me my first reloader for loading 12ga. My passion for reloading grew after that. I don't have much time for reloading anymore but still enjoy it for specialty loads. Mostly subsonic loads for a variety of guns that are threaded for silencers. My gun interests are a bit different than most. I tend to gravitate towards guns like my threaded Ruger 77/44, 77/357, Contender in 7x30 and revolvers. As I have aged guns that are slower to reload and quiet to shoot have become more appealing.

I enjoy a variety of hunting including grouse, pigeon, crow, prairie dogs and deer mostly. I would like to try more hog hunting and elk as time permits. My other hobbies include spending time on the water, downhill skiing out west and snowmobiling. More recently I have gotten into cars. I picked up a 2018 Mustang GT Premium with the performance package, this year I traded it on a GT350. My commute is an hour each way so it is nice to have some fun along the way.
