    Remington Arms going out of Business????

    Internal business dealings, look at the airlines, auto industry, IBM etc. Every company is looking for a way to improve their financial position by ditching employee benefits. It does not matter if the company is in financial trouble, ie airlines and automotive, or the company is healthy, ie IBM

    m1903

    I have read threads about M1's from the CMP, has anyone purchased a M1903or M1903A3 from the CMP? I was wondering about the quality of those guns. Also, some information regarding the difference between the Springfield and the Remmington, "S" stock, and the significance of the high serial numbers.

    Researching new rifle

    My 30-06 is a Savage model 40. The balistic info for factory loads I have been looking at is from Petersens annual hunting magazine for 2006. They have a list of ballistics tables from .17 - .460. Nice having a starting point.

    Researching new rifle

    good stuff...and either too many choices or not enough money to get all the toys...Anyway, I am impressed with the 25-06 balistic tabels. It seems to carry more punch and a little flater shooting than a 6mm. I think the 6.55 is larger than what I'm looking for since I have an 06 to use for...

    Researching new rifle

    thanks again for the advice, I appreciate the input. I want to take my time before the purchase, I saved some greenbacks for the purchase and I really do not want to have to buy two guns to do the same job, if ya know what I mean.

    Researching new rifle

    I am looking to purchase a new rifle, I just keep talking myself out of what caliber to purchase. I have an 06 for larger game, and several 22's for plinking etc. I was looking at a .243, but am wondering if I should go .270. I like the balistics of these calibers and variety of ammo...

    Gunsmith

    I have a Savage pre WW-II 30-06. (made in the late 20's to prior to 1940 is my best guess) It was my relatives gun, and before it was given to me they had a gunsmith do some work on it and test fire it, etc. However, I have owned it for a few years, and I would like a gunsmith to go through it...

    Gunsmith

    I live in the Phoenix Arizona area, been here a couple of years. Does anybody know of a good gunsmith in the area. I live on the north side of town, so I could even go up towards Prescott if I have to.

    Anybody "unhappy" with their GP100? ..and sold it?

    So far, I have never sold a gun....just seem to purchase them and love each one of them flaws and all! Anyway enough of my personal problems. I looked at the GP-100 and the S&W 686, I ended up purchasing the 686 with a 4 inch barrel and I have never been sorry. I shoot well with it, I like...

    Another guy looking for a new rifle.....

    I appreciate all the feed back, so this is the direction I am heading. I went back to the sporting good stores and after getting more "hands on" time with the: browning, savage, remmington, winchester, ruger, cz, and weatherby...I narrowed it down to two. I liked the action on the Remmington...

    Another guy looking for a new rifle.....

    Thanks for the advice! Mustang - you mentioned your model 70, would you get that in a synthetic stock for what I want, or would you save a couple bills and go for the Savage? The nicer stock you mentioned may not matter as much going synthetic but I'm not sure. I also have not shopped the...

    Another guy looking for a new rifle.....

    What about the model 12fv? Does it also come with a heavy barrel? I am also anti-walmart, but that is another story for another thread. If I get a 243would that be more versatle by varying the ammunition for varmit, target, or larger game. Or would you stick to a 223 for target and varmit. I...
