Comments
From The Gunsmith
At Brockman's
Custom Gunsmithing, we strive to make all of our models the highest
quality. We are always seeking new and improved components to use,
and we continually upgrade our rifles to take advantage of the best.
Feedback from our customers is essential, as many changes and upgrades
have resulted from suggestions from our customers as well as from
our own field experiences.
When selecting
your new custom rifle, here are some things we feel you should take
into account.
- What are you using
the rifle for?
- Do you expect to take
500-600 yard shots at game?
- Will you be hunting
in rugged country with dense vegetation?
- What size animals
will you be hunting?
- How much recoil can
you handle?
These are
all questions you should honestly ask yourself. We have many choices
in cartridges today, but why over-gun yourself when a smaller, more
efficient cartridge will be less abusive to shoot? With less recoil
you will be able to place the shot more precisely.
Many rifles
fall into what we consider special use rifles. If this special use
is planned from the beginning, the final result will be more satisfactory.
To start with a cartridge that burns 100+ grains of powder and then
use a 20" barrel makes for a poor result.
Another
area to consider when choosing a rifle is the action. When we start
to build a precision rifle, it often makes more sense to start with
a custom action that costs a little more, than to start with a production
action, then pay several hundred dollars to bring it into spec.
Providing details such as this in the beginning will eliminate delays
caused by changes.
There are
some types of rifles that other people specialize in, and we don't.
In these cases, we will reccomend someone instead of taking the
job ourselves.
We pride ourselves on
building a rifle that is practical, functional, and elegant. Brockman's
stands behind its products 100%! Brockman's doesn't want to build
all of your rifles, only your best rifles!
