First off I have no dogs and shining is illegal. The only time a light can be used is at the point of kill. Trapping doesn't seem like an option since I need to take a class and I think it's over. Have any of you had luck day time hunting? I've seen tracks by a water hole but never seen a...

Hi I bought roughly 50 fmj with exposed lead base 150 grain bullets at a gun show. They have a crimp around them and he thought they were old military pull downs. I'm only gonna use them for plinking in 308 and 3006 with imr 4895. So can I use any 150 grain fmj data or is there certain ones...

Hello all I would rather use a rifle but we had to change hunting spots and iron sights seems to be better then Scopes. It's a 24 inch fully rifled barrel with iron sights, rear is adjustable. Using either 2 3/4 or 3 inch. Now the questions. 1. Do I sight in for 100 yards and is there an...

I have a old single shot bolt action rifle that only extracts cases sometimes. The extractor looks to be held in by metal that was pushed in on both sides of the grove. It's in a half circle shape and appears that maybe a punch was used to do it. The metal appears to be worn away, the left side...

Have 2 brand new boxes of 22mag. bad: doesn't look finished tumbled(black spots) some cases have multiple dents some are scratched the length of the case others appear to be just fine Now I didn't wanna shoot any and I can't return to the store so I'm wondering if I have any other...

My lee powder through expanding die is scraping or marking the case. I tryed two cases and it did it on both. Its not deep or severe but you do notice it on the cases. Do I have to polish it and if so is toothpaste or mothers mag polish okay? Two more things the lee wood ball handle...

Pulled out a old beat up boy scout training rifle and it seemed to have white mold spots on it. It wiped off and haven't seen it before, so I rewaxed it. Has anyone seen this before on a wood stock or have any advice? The stock has a bunch of nicks from all the scouts I assume lol and seem to be...

Hi I was wondering what you guys thought of reloading with green dot in 40? I've read mixed reviews online some good and others said use a different powder. Local shops don't have much seems pretty hit or miss on stuff. Bullets will probably be berrys plated or whatever is in stock at the...

Would a lee classic turret press be a good quality kit? First time reloader looking for a good kit to last me a bit. Mainly would be reloading for casual shooting and hunting loads depending how it goes. Thanks for any advice :)

So someone replied to a ad I had with wtb guns. He's offering really good deals on guns, but he said he didn't have papers. I asked if they were stolen and he said idk I bought them off the street. I asked if I could get serials then he said they were his cousins that needed cash, now that he...

So today I was looking around at the lgs and I found a 835 black synthetic and parkerized finish I think, for $200. looks in good shape, but it said it had a "slugster" barrel on the tag. On the gun tho is a 24 inch interchangeable choke barrel that says no slugs. So are they just wrong? Is this...

I just picked up a Stevens 62 22lr used for $40. She needed a good cleaning and oiling. Mounted a 30mm red dot for rabid squirrels of course. Wondering if you can give me any info on it? Read they were made in Canada but don't know how many were made. Seems like there not a lot of options for...

Going to be looking at a older remington 1911. What are things I need to look out for? Wear are parts going to be worn damaged? Gonna shine a light down the barrel. Other then that Idk what to check for help!

Hi I have the chance to buy a Stevens model 67 20g pump shotgun for cheap. Barrel was cut down to 18.5. How good would this be? We only have bolt action rifles which worries me. Its not mint but I don't mind since the price is good. Thinking birdshot followed by buck? I don't mind if its not...

I've been looking at semis and bolt action rifles. I'm thinking a semi will be better since we have a lot of squirrels, but I'll take a bolt to just whatever the right price is. Now what would I go with for ammo? Hollow points? What brands are good? Any tips would help only been deer hunting.

Went to go exchange some ice fishing blades and was surprised to see they had blackpowder rifles on clearance. One that I thought might be buying to extend the hunting season was a tc impact for $187 but it has some of the stock missing? Where the logo is on the butt of the gun. Do you think its...

Hi my dad has a very old REM 600 that the wood stock finish seems to be flaking off. We don't wanna refinish it but wondered if there's anything we can do to condition it? Basicly to stop it flaking off. He wants to retire it or maybe I can find a synthetic stock for it. Thanks for any help...
