I just bought a new Browning BPS 16 Upland Special with a 24" barrel. You can walk all day with the thing and it just hammers pheasants. IMO, the BPS is the best pointing pump gun since the Model 12 (but no, it is NOT a Model 12). The things discussed did help to "kill" the 16, but some of...

If you are really devoted to the encore platform, there is a company that makes smokeless barrel conversions. Remarkably, they are called Smokeless Muzzleloading Incorporated http://www.smokelessmuzzleloading.com/ . Give them a look and see what you can do. Safe, great reputation, and...

About 10 years ago, I found myself waist deep with various reloading components for all of my weapons. Nothing extravagent, but when you have about 7 rounds you reload for in a VERY limited space, things get busy. After some soul searching I dumped all my .44 stuff (2 guns, gear, and...

You can also get a williams sight put on - you will need to drill and tap the side. My rear apeture is adjustable - from a full ghost ring to as small as you can imagine - just takes a quick/quiet twist.

A Kimber TLE II and a CDP. Worthless as a weapon unless thrown. Never to be burned by Kimber again! Their factory service did not impress or fix either gun. Oh well, I am happy with my Dan Wesson Bobtail - it is 100%

I have a 2 year old Puma in .454 - just love the thing and have even learned how to shoot with iron sights again! I opted for a Williams receiver sight and feel pretty comfortable shooting it. One of the few legitimate gripes about the '92 action (when compared to a Marlin) is the lack of...

The only danger to anyone from my Kimber TLE II would have been if I would have thrown it at them. The thing never operated correctly and the problems got worse for each of the 3 trips back to the factory. Thankfully, I found someone who thougth that they wanted to invest the $$ to fix it...

First off, good luck to everyone and their rehab process. Keep it up and you will be back at the range quicker than you realize. I broke my wrist last year and had a decision to make. Like others, I had not spent enough time shooting left-handed. "Thanks" to my injury, I spent a lot of...

Greetings all, Well, in early summer of last year, I finally had to satisfy my itch to get one of the new Puma 92's in .454 Casull. I had read most every post I could find, and was satisfied that the platform was sound and that it was the way to go. For me, the flexibility of the .45...

I have a 1895 in .405 Winchester shooting reloads topped with the 300gr Barnes X. True hog medicine!

I have an M2 20 gauge and just love the thing. My only complaint is that my thumb really takes a beating feeding shells into the gun. Not sure why - I have varied techniques/positions/etc. and still get a very sore thumb. I borrowed my son's Gold Hunter in 20 ga and really noticed that my...

Send the whole gun back to Ruger. While frustrating, I would rather them figure this out on their own rather than having you end up taking some sort of inappropriate "blame"

Go to a respected goose guiding service and see what the guides have in the pit with them. I have had the good fortune of using several (5) places down in southern Illinois in "real" goose country. Most/all of the guides had a 10 gauge in the pit with them. That told me something. I shot...

I have a recent production of a Ruger Bisley in .45 Colt that came with a .45 ACP Cylinder. I believe that Accusport was the distributor. Very accurate and the +P ACP loads shoot to the same point of impact of my .45 Colt hunting loads (the stout ones). If you like single action shooting...

For me, the issue had nothing to do with the G20 being a good pistol. It is solidly built, shot everything I ever put into it (including reloads), and never failed. The issue was that it did not fit my hand at all and I never mastered the trigger pull and grip required for the Glock. Note...

Magmeister, I have the Alaskan in .454 and had it ported by the Mag-na-port folks. While it was there, they also did a trigger job on it for me. They are really good at what they do - all the work was executed perfectly and the trigger is simply outstanding. Now - I have been shooting big...

While the bullet itself is made out of 100% copper, I would really not consider the DPX to be "solid". The things have a hollow-point in them so big that you can mix a drink. Don't get me wrong, I love the things. I have used them muzzleloading now for about 2 years and they make big...

Guys, If anyone is till looking for a good holster for this beast (regardless of caliber), I would really suggest the Simply Rugged brand. I got mine for $60 - great leather, outstanding craftsmanship, and as respectively good/solid as the pistol. I know that we all get tired of reading...

I had my heart set on geting one of "those new rounds" (the .325 WSM) before I went on a caribou hunt last year. After some reasoning, I knew that my "old" 30-06 would do just fine. The real impact on my decision was felt when I went into the only store in this tiny town before heading out and...

I have always thought that if the 1911 was supposed to have one, JMB would have put one in from the get go.
