I've just got started shooting a few clays on what I intend to be a regular basis, weekly at least. I've shot trap & skeet before, but only very occasionally & never seriously. I'm quite frankly a terrible wing shooter & I figured that actually doing this more than once or twice a year would...

Just a quicky here. I've just picked up a really nice little IJ Champion .410 & the top lever seems very loose. Should it be sprung, or is it a simple friction lever?

I've just reloaded my first ever rounds. I have 2 .45-70 rifles; a Browning high wall & a Marlin 1895. I've loaded 5 rounds of each powder quantity from minimum to maximum (50 total for each gun), one set of 50 with cast 405gn bullets for the high wall, one with 350gn Hornadys for the Marlin...

I have a Stevens 775 16ga that I am considering trading. It has an un-ribbed 26" barrel with a polychoke fitted. The barrel is marked as being originally a modified choke. I know the chokes are almost impossible to remove & that once removed, threading the barrel for tubes is pretty expensive...

I'm looking to trade my shotgun, a 16ga Stevens 775 semi-auto with polychoke, hopefully for a SxS 12 or 16ga. Now, I know my gun isn't worth a whole lot & I don't really want to throw around much moolah so I'm expecting to be looking for guns along the lines of Fox model Bs, Stevens 311s...

What're y'alls favorite target patterns? I've found that some are far easier to see at 100yds than others. Some work better for me with scopes & some are better for iron sights. I see a lot of grid-pattern targets, I guess making it easier to measure & move POI. What do you prefer for...

I'm going to be picking up a brand new rifle tomorrow & as I've never owned a new 'un before I was wondering; Do I need to do any cleaning or de-greasing before I shoot the thing, or can I just slap on the optics & go nuts? Do new guns usually have a 'break-in' period (I've only ever dealt with...

Does anyone have any ideas where I may be able to find a replacement barrel for either a WM Carbine or Pennsylvania hunter in .50 cal??? I've been looking & looking for the better part of 6 months now & the only ones I've seen for sale are either the old 4 digit serial number models with the...

I have the 10/22 already, fitted with a .920 Green Mountain 18" barrel, good scope & the nice Sporter stock. It's not outstandingly accurate, but I can do 1" groups at 30yds all day with cheap bulk ammo. However, a friend of mine has expressed an interest in trading for his standard CZ452. I...

I just picked up one of these awesome little leverguns, after having searched for a looooong time for one. I know it's a bit of an oddball rifle, only having being made for 4 or 5 years in the mid '60s, but I have a question just in case anyone might know; I'd like to fit one of the...

I have rifles I hunt with, rifles I take to the range (not often) & rifles for home defense & truck carry. I simply cannot bring myself to like ARs. Everyone keeps telling me that they're the most versatile platform going, but I just don't see it Apart from shooting coyotes .223 isn't much use...

I have a Uberti 1885 High Wall that has the original buckhorn sight. I'm just getting set to install a globe front & vernier tang sight & I was wondering if anyone here had a quick & reliable method for getting on paper. As with a scope, would I start out at 25-50yds & simply work my way...

I'm sure this has been done a few times before, so I apologize in advance; I'm wanting to start reloading for .45-70, .38spl & .357 possibly .303 in the future. I don't shoot thousands of rounds per year & I'd really like to cast my own bullets if possible. I'm looking at buying one of...
