The Run and Gun Series: Why We Do It (And All Scores So Far)

    The TFBTV Run and Gun series seems to be a viewer favorite, and it also happens to be the most fun one to make! It allows us to put old rifles to the test and make a short, concise video that can often uncover a few things you wouldn’t normally notice when firing from a benchrest. But there are of course other reasons for the series.
