Number 1: S9 Episode 281: "Good Enough" Is Killing Quality in the Rifle Industry
In this episode of Wolf Precision's Long Range Shooting and Custom Rifle Building Podcast, Jamie takes a hard look at what seems to be becoming the new standard across the shooting and firearms industry: "good enough." From magazines that won't feed to chassis components that don't fit, incorrect orders, poor quality control, and parts arriving that simply aren't right, Jamie shares what Wolf Precision is seeing firsthand—and why shooters and rifle builders need to pay closer attention than ever to the components they purchase. Precision isn't supposed to mean close enough. Jamie discusses why Wolf Precision continues to inspect, test-fit, and verify the components that go into every rifle, why accountability matters, and why manufacturers who maintain high standards deserve recognition. We also introduce the newly redesigned Wolf Pack Online Training Center, including the Online Long Range Shooting School, Online Reloading Class, and Online Rifle Building and Maintenance Series. With hundreds of videos accumulated over more than four years, the new layout makes it easier than ever to work through the training in order and take advantage of everything available to Wolf Pack members. Plus, Jamie talks about upcoming Wolf Pack range days for 2027, the limited 2027 Long Range Shooting School schedule, and a possible return to Florida for a shooting school at Immokalee.

Number 2: S9 Episode 280: Reloading Safety: The Dangerous Cost of Complacency
Reloading can save you money and produce incredibly accurate ammunition—but one mistake can destroy a rifle or seriously injure you or someone beside you. In this episode, Jamie Dodson talks about two of the most important responsibilities every handloader needs to understand: due diligence and complacency. A recent safety notice involving published reloading data is a powerful reminder that even information printed in a trusted reloading manual should never be accepted blindly. Jamie explains why you should cross-check multiple reloading manuals, compare manufacturer data, watch for unusual load information, and sign up for manufacturer safety notices and updates. We also discuss why experienced reloaders can sometimes be at even greater risk when familiarity turns into complacency. If you reload ammunition—or know someone who does—this is an episode worth sharing. It could save a rifle, prevent an injury, or even save a life. Take reloading seriously. Do your research. Double-check your data. Never become complacent. Learn more about Wolf Precision, our shooting schools, custom rifles, and the Wolf Pack online training programs at WolfPrecision.net.

Number 4: Episode 264: Barrel Tuners Explained — Do They Really Work? (Part 1)
In Episode 264 of the Wolf Precision Long Range Shooting and Custom Rifle Building Podcast, Jamie Dodson dives into a frequently asked questions at Wolf Precision schools and reloading classes: Do barrel tuners really work? This episode begins a two-part deep dive into barrel tuners, exploring the physics, theories, and real-world considerations behind these increasingly popular devices. Jamie breaks down: • What a barrel tuner actually does • The theory of barrel harmonics and vibration nodes • Why moving weight on the muzzle can influence accuracy • The historical origins of tuners, including the Browning BOSS system • The relationship between load development and harmonic nodes • How suppressors and muzzle brakes can affect barrel harmonics • The potential placebo effect when adding weight to the muzzle • A rarely discussed issue: barrel growth from heat and its effect on tuner settings As barrels heat during firing, they expand — potentially changing the exact tuner setting that was originally dialed in. Jamie explains how this thermal growth could influence tuner performance and why it raises interesting questions about real-world effectiveness. To keep the conversation fair and balanced, Jamie has also extended an open invitation to tuner manufacturer Eric Cortina to join the podcast and discuss his perspective on the technology. So, whether you're a competitive shooter, precision reloader, or rifle builder, this episode explores the science, theory, and practical realities behind barrel tuning systems.

Number 5: Episode 261: Fundamentals of Marksmanship, Part 2: Learning to Drive the Rifle
In Episode 261 of the Long Range Shooting and Custom Rifle Building Podcast, we continue our Fundamentals of Marksmanship series with Part Two, revisiting one of our most requested and most re-listened-to topics from the archives. This episode dives deep into "driving the rifle"—how grip pressure, recoil management, rear-bag control, and consistency behind the rifle directly affect accuracy. We answer listener questions about loose versus firm grip, free recoil versus control, and why most shooting errors happen behind the rifle, not in front of the scope. We also explore how skills from pistol shooting and archery translate into long-range rifle shooting, and why shooters from those backgrounds often progress faster once they understand the fundamentals. If you've ever struggled with inconsistent tracking, erratic recoil, or unexplained misses, this episode will help you identify what's really happening—and how to fix it.
