Had an awesome time with @g.tyler16 this past weekend shooting the Precision Rifle Competition @kmprecisionrifletraining .
The level of competition at this event was incredible and even though I placed 140 out of 197, I cleaned a few stages and didn`t get any zero`s so that`s a win for a barrel monkey like me. Awesome to watch @g.tyler16 finish in the top 50 with such intense competition and proud of his progress and glad that I can support him at the highest level.
A surprise treat was to meet @vikingtactics Kyle Lamb at the match!
Birthday post (day late).
I don`t worry about getting old, I worry about getting old and not having any stories to tell.
Thanks to great friends, the best customers in the world, my awesome family, and the blessings of Almighty God, the stories keep coming.
Extra special thanks to @luckyangie11 who encouraged me from the beginning to write a whole new chapter. I love you sweetheart!
I literally climbed mountains and felt like I stood on top of the world. Lots of miles walked and thanks to those friends I mentioned, I got a whole new me that`s 55 lbs lighter.
The old ones had to go so the new ones could come along. I miss them almost as much as I cherish the new. Some things can only come from God and I`m blessed and thankful that He gives and takes away according to His purpose.
Thank you all for your time with me. It`s a truly amazing gift from amazing people!

My recent trip to @hatcreektraining was a culmination of 2 years of hard work developing my skills and my fitness. Training with @ninjabobsolutions , @gbrsgroup , @moderndaysniper , and @pilotmountainarmsofficial to be ready and capable to pull the trigger. By their own admission, Hat Creek "does not offer beginner classes".
Hundreds of miles walked, thousands of pounds lifted, meals prepared and weighed, 55 lbs bodyweight lost to be able to not only endure, but enjoy the experience.
The White Monster was a faithful companion and did everything asked of it. To be able to shoot a place like Hat Creek with a rifle that I built myself was unbelievably satisfying. She saw rain, snow, heat, and cold and still put rounds on target (when I did my part). As the only gun not running a suppressor, she was a little obnoxious, but she sure sounded good booming off those canyon walls.
I`m very fortunate and humbled to be able to train in the footsteps of the most capable shooters on the planet. Folks who defend our nation and protect our freedoms and will never receive a "thank you" because of the secrecy of their missions. This was in my mind as I stepped over piles of magnum brass and read the flags and pictures that hang in the house.
Talking with @b.morgan_1 I felt like the lowly hardware store employee when he comes face-to-face with the great Ron Swanson and is told matter-of-factly "I know more than you."
The instructors were absolutely the best with the resumes to prove it, but each were friendly, patient, and had a sense of humor that put me at ease and encouraged me to ask questions.
Hat Creek is genuinely a unique place on the planet, blessed by God with not only some of the most challenging and rugged terrain in the world, but dedicated people who believe in the mission and the calling to train and equip our military.
God bless everyone at Hat Creek and I hope to see you again soon.

I’ve believed from Day 1 that for PWS to succeed I had to be more than a gunsmith. I had to be a resource for the customer. Something more than a machine shop, more than a retail store, more than a place to have work done or buy things.
This means doing what they do: Eastern hunting, guided Western hunts, long range classes, competition shooting.
I understand the customer because I do what they do with them. I share their passion and stay on top of developments in the industry. This lead to me losing 55 lbs, getting in shape, and starting a regular weight training program. The last piece of equipment I ever thought I would buy for the shop was a @roguefitness power rack, barbells, and plates, but that’s exactly what I did. Why? Because fitness is important and necessary to our customers, so it has to be necessary for us. @g.tyler16 has been not only a friend and resource for all things competition, but an inspiration as well. I’m proud and blessed that he represents my company in the @precisionrifleseries
I choose vendors not on margins or potential sales, but reputation, quality, and innovation. If I wouldn’t use it on my gun, I won’t sell it to you. I can’t trust my reputation and success to nothing but the very best, and that’s all we’ll carry at PWS. You’ll see those vendors on my personal PRS rifle in these photos, AKA #whitemonster
We’re very excited for 2026 as the builds come in, sales are up, but most importantly, I get to share in the success of my customers!

Old dog.....new tricks! Some folks say that accurizing a factory Remington action is "putting lipstick on a pig" but we gotta say that pig looks pretty hot!
We did a full accurizing process on this factory Remington 700 and installed a premium Krieger M24/M40 (what else?!?) barrel, TriggerTech Special trigger, and a Leupold Mk4 optic in an Area 419 tactical mount. The results (shot with factory Federal 140gr GMM SMK) speaks for itself!
Fun story: During range testing, someone asked, "Who did the Cerakote on that?"
Me: "Krylon"
Person: "Cool. Never heard of them. Where are they located?"
Me: "In a spray can." 😂👍

We all had a good time yesterday………Goose is our Boxer/Pit mix and Monster is……well……Monster. We had him DNA tested and they detected 22 different breeds! The highest concentration is Lab, but only 26%. Whatever he is, he loves the snow………must be the St. Bernard in him!

@g.tyler16 and I are back from SHOT show 2026. Man, what a ride!! Awesome new products on display as well as catching up with old friends and making new connections.
Extra special thanks to everyone at @seekinsprecision_official for making us feel like somebody and welcome us like family! We had a chance to talk to @matty__nelson and @lifesapitch42 as well as @glen_seekins himself on the development of their new SIC rifle. Very impressive and it`s the first factory rifle that I`ve wanted in a long time!
Some exciting new dealer opportunities are coming to PWS and we`ll have more information as soon as they are finalized!!
SHOT show week always takes too long to get here and always goes by too fast!!
