Hello Fellow Airgun Geeks,

In this episode of The Airgun Geeks Podcast, Bill Ruehl and Patrick Schmitz sit down for one of the most personal and important episodes we’ve ever recorded. Bill shares the story of a near-fatal coronary issue that almost claimed his life, what happened, how close it really was, and why he’s grateful to still be here talking airguns with the community.

But this episode is not only about Bill’s health scare. We also dig into major updates from the competitive airgun world, including what’s happening in field target, benchrest, precision airgun shooting, and the growing world of organized airgun competition. If you follow PCP airguns, pellet guns, slug guns, airgun matches, or the broader airgun industry, this episode covers a lot of ground.

Bill and Pat also talk about new airgun announcements, upcoming gear, industry movement, and what airgunners should be paying attention to as the sport continues to grow. We also share the current plans for the Airgun Geeks Shooting Team, including what Bill and Pat are working toward, future competitions, team goals, and how we plan to represent the Airgun Geeks community on the firing line.

Whether you’re a competitive shooter, backyard plinker, PCP airgun owner, hunter, field target competitor, benchrest shooter, or just part of the Airgun Geeks family, this episode is packed with real talk, airgun news, personal perspective, and the kind of conversation that reminds us why this community matters.
