    Hunting with 17 HMR

    Gray Squirrels. I finished three squirrel project guns four summers ago, a 10/22, a CZ 452 and TA DA a Savage 93R17. I made the mistake of shooting the Savage first. I haven't touch the other two except to sight in and find the brand they like best, no hunting. The Savage has been used to kill...

    .243 WSSM for deer

    When I got my .243WSSM I also got 500 rounds of new brass and I recently got some Barnes 85g TSX bullets. Figured I'll always be able to get .243 bullets and with 500 rounds of brass I'll shot for the rest of my life. BTY I ran into a killer deal one very early morning in my local Wal-Mart...

    .243 WSSM for deer

    243WSSM I have a Browning A Bolt in .243WSSM. Granddaughter # 1 used it last year to kill two deer and I used it to kill one. Works like a .243Win does. The Winchester load is a good one and should shoot through and deer at reasonable range and shouldn't blow up at short range.

    The "insurgent" sniper video.

    I'd say it depends (always a disclaimer:p ). Maybe with the "right" bullet and the right POI and very short range you may be able to cause enough tissue destruction to cause "pieces" to be removed from a human body BUT (always a BUT) none of the calibers you ask about would cause a human body to...

    Best back stop for Home range

    Look here http://www.reloadammo.com/backstop.htm easy to build, cheap if you can find scrap steel. I have five of these now. They weigh about 40 pounds. Will deflect a 30-30 round at 25 yards (will dimple steel), 22lr will just splash as will any .17 rim fire round. Read about shielding the...

    The Myth of CONTROL

    I have a carry permit here in NC. We have many restrictions on where and how we can carry one is the "posted sign" restriction. The mall here in Fayetteville posts such a sign (no guns allowed) on all the entrances to the mall. Three days ago a young woman was shoot in the mall by a supposedly...

    Why I don't give permission to hunt....

    I own a very large farm of 5300+ acres. Up until 1995 it was a rare thing for me to refuse permission to hunt or fish. The two things that made me lock my gate were perpetual permission and multi-level permission. I can't count the number of times I've encountered persons fishing who told me...

    How much .22LR in a pallet? Where to buy?

    I'm going to assume that your club is sanctioned by UT, if such is the case go talk to UT's purchasing department. Get the power of the school's buying power behind your club. Bet they can get your ammo purchased and shipped with their next shipment of janitorial or chem supplies. Can't hurt to...

    Was my advice good? Woman vs 6 Pitbulls

    Generally good advice. If you have the opportunity please suggest she see a lawyer about this. BTY as for #4 shot. The weapon of choice of PHs in Africa to go in after a wounded Leopard is a 12ga loaded with #4s. Have personal experience with #4s and dogs using a 20ga. I'm here dogs aren't guess...

    Pistol hunting?

    There is another reason to use handguns, necessity in order to continue hunting. Accident in 1989 precludes the use of long guns only option for me was a handgun. In 2005 I used a Browning A Bolt to kill my last deer for that season. There will be on more long gun kills for me. I know I can do...

    What have YOU used for hogs?

    I've killed many piggies from 30 pound sucklings to bruisers over 350. From 1991 until 2001 all for the pigs I killed were with a S&W 657 .41RemMag loaded with Sierra 210/19.5/2400. In October 2001 I started using a 14 inch T/C chambered in .41GNR#2 loaded with a 250g cast lead from CPBT or...

    Need help w/binocular strap

    I like the Bino System from Crooked Horn so much so that I have 4. Two are used with binoculars and two are use with my Canon cameras. I can now carry them all day without feeling that my head will pop off from the pressure of that around the neck strap.
