The Blessings of Living in BC

Matt Siemens·August 19, 2015
Living here in BC is a true blessing for sportsmen and women, very few places around the globe can compare to our natural beauty and diversity. It is truly a place of wonder, yet I never truly realized it until I moved back from living in various places around the...

.22 LR Reloader

Matt Siemens·August 17, 2015
Every once in a while I will see some new product that I just have to have, or wish I had produced it. Back in the beginning of the year I came across that exact product. While walking through the CSAAA show in Calgary I stumbled across a .22 LR...

Final Chapter: 450 Ackley Project

Matt Siemens·June 15, 2015
With the rifle finished and spring bear season in full swing, it seemed sensible to bring the rifle into the field and see if I could connect on a bear with it. First I would need to spend some time with it on the range. I was curious to see...

Custom Rifle Build #3: The 450 Ackley Project

Matt Siemens·March 23, 2015

You may notice in my writing and accompanying photos a common occurrence in some of the brands that I use and openly endorse. Over the years I have developed a loyalty to products that have treated me well and haven’t let me down. I own several types of rifles, knives...

Custom Rifle Build: The .450 Ackley

Matt Siemens·April 16, 2014
I consider myself a “rifleman”. I truly enjoy hunting with a fine rifle as much as the next connoisseur, maybe a wee bit more. That being said I feel that most of the factory rifles made today are lacking in some features that I look for. I want to do another...

Gun Talk: Scope Mounting

Matt Siemens·September 6, 2013
While it may seem straight forward, mounting the scope to the rifle is one of the most crucial procedures to ensure success. Many rifles today are produced off of CNC machines and one would think that all the actions would have the same dimensions. This would mean mounting a scope...

Matt Siemens·September 6, 2013
