Distributor Legacy Sports International dropped some big news at last month's SHOT Show 2016, announcing that it will be bringing back the Webley & Scott line of centerfire rifles. The iconic brand has been around for over a century, but hasn't seen any action in the centerfire department in some time. That, as you can see, is changing. Executive Editor Adam Heggenstaller had a chance to shoot the new Webley & Scott Empire Rifle in .270. Win. at Industry Day at the Range. You can check that out, and get a few more inside details, in the video embedded above.
