Best of the West
Best of the West set the hunting community ablaze with its "controversial" long range hunting television show in 2005. With our Huskemaw Optics brand rifle scopes, custom ammunition and sub-MOA custom guns, the rest of the world is trying to catch up to our long range accuracy.
About This Exhibitor
Custom Shooting Systems
In our quest for an excellent long range shooting system, we began testing components and designs that would lead to increased accuracy, tighter groups and greater distances. After years of testing, we landed on what we believe is the best, but our journey is far from over. We continually test and prove new products and new technology to push further. We currently offer these long range systems:
Signature Series (also in a Carbon Fiber model) - see these in our Virtual Booth Gallery or visit our website for full details.

Huskemaw Long Range Optics
The iconic blue turret of the Huskemaw Optics' scope was developed by Best of the West's team in an endeavor to make long range hunting easier and without the need to understand ballistics. This laser etched matches a specific load in a specific gun and environment. It also has patented wind hold values for easy wind compensation. These technologically advanced scopes are now offered in varying magnifications and applications.
The Television Show
Where It All Started
It all began in 1998, with an idea between a couple of friends, Jack Peterson and Dale Caldwell, to put together a hunting video. That idea turned into a commitment, which then turned into a video and TV production company – Bridger Trail Video.

In 2000 and 2001, Jack and Dale started acquiring footage for a typical hunting video. Soon they had enough footage gathered that their idea for a video morphed into the idea of putting together an entire television show dedicated to hunting. However, at that time, only a limited number of networks carried that sort of outdoor programming, and the partners struggled to find air time. But in January of 2003, Bridger Trail Video landed a spot on the Sportsman’s Channel – one of the first few shows on that new channel. “The Best of The West” ran on Sportsman’s for a year, then started moving around the dial – they moved after just a year to The Man’s Channel, since that channel had a broader audience base on both Dish Network and Direct TV. After only a year or so on The Man’s Channel, they aired on networks such as VS., The Men’s Channel, and the Pursuit Channel, before finding their current home on The Outdoor Channel.
