For the shooter who has lots of small, fast varmints and therefore needs rapid delivery of small, fast bullets, this sounds most promising. For hunting deer and such, I\u2019m intrigued to learn that \u201cthe Christiansen Arms .308 with its carbon fiber barrel has almost no recoil, yet it weighs just six pounds, and its titanium muzzle brake does an outstanding job of keeping muzzle rise to almost nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The SHOT Show is in Las Vegas, and if I was there and they were taking bets on such things, I\u2019d put my money down that the single best-selling new introduction mentioned in the dispatch from the front linked above will be Ruger\u2019s drop-in trigger assembly for the incredibly popular 10\/22 rifle.\u00a0 Said to be light and sweet, affordable and easy to drop in, it\u2019s going to be a huge hit with target shooters of all types. I expect a lot of them to show up at the great Appleseed events, which we at <em>Backwoods Home <\/em>enthusiastically support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the week of the SHOT (Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade) Show, where the lion\u2019s share of new guns for the given year are introduced.\u00a0 I was scheduled to be there and had to cancel at the last minute, darn it, but fortunately lots of news is emerging from there daily on the blogosphere.
