+1 for the Pedersoli Blue Ridge flinter. It's a Kentucky style, shoots straight, and Cabela's has 'em on sale for $629 (fits your budget). It doesn't come with a flint, so you'll need to buy that, and other accessories, separately.

My stainless CMMG seems to run with everything I try, even sub-sonics. Very accurate in my S&W 15T (1/9). Currently, I've shot hundreds of Win Dynapoints, with 99.9 % reliability.

Ian, did you read the Surplus Firearms article on the Swedish 41B Mauser? Pretty interesting. Anyway, back to surplus hunting - I'm trying to get each of my surplus rifles out in the field, at some point. So far, I've got a hog with my Garand, a hog with my M-1 Carbine, a coyote with my 91/30...

The last 5 hogs that I've shot have been with an AR in 223, using the Sierra 65 gr GameKing bullet. All head shots @ 100 yds, all one-shot kills. I usually aim between the eye and ear, if it's a side shot, or between the eyes, if it's head-on. Frankly, I've been surprised at how effective it's...

If you're interested in a 30 cal, take a look at the Olympic Arms Gamestalker upper in 300 OSSM. It'll fit your AR-15 lower, and is ballistically equivalent to a 30-06 (way more horsepower than the 30 Rem).

Neat project. Just be sure to use the same weight bullet, or lighter. I've used the same technique to make hunting rounds out of (brass) milsurp FMJs for my Mosin Nagant and Mauser, substituting a lighter SP bullet for the FMJ. Works great.

Reeds Ammo has Winchester brass (as of last week) @ $46/100. reedsammo.com Blue Star Brass may have Winchester also, for $60/100. bluestarbrass.com

The Huber trigger that I put in my Mosin Nagant made a significant improvement in pull weight. A bit of inletting of the stock was required, but it's easy to do. I installed a second Huber on a friend's M-N and got the same results - a significant improvement.

DeepSouth Unfortunately, I've already tossed my "Woods n Water", but as best as I can remember, they used the same pic as post#6. The online version of the magazine didn't have it, as you discovered. I'll try to find a copy on the news stand later today and I'll PM you if I'm successful.

Congratulations on your new acquisition. I got to shoot an 1874 (in 45-70) for the first time last summer and really enjoyed it. Now, I'm saving my pennies. If it weren't for a 'good deal' on a Swiss K-31 that came my way, I'd own a Sharps by now. I hope to join the club soon. Nice gun!

I bought a complete varmint rifle kit (with a few upgrades) in .204 Ruger, and I'm 100% satisfied. It's an awesome rifle, and it's every bit as accurate as my .204 bolt gun. I'd buy from them again.

I'll play. (1) M1 Garand (2) Colt 1911 (3) 1903 Springfield (4) Mosin Nagant M38 (5) Mauser K98

The Feb. issue of Woods n Water magazine (FL) ran that picture and said it had definitely been identified as a hairless raccoon, with mange.

J&G Sales has 'em for $70.

I've ordered from them three times. Items shipped quickly, never more than 48 hrs, and usually much less.

I like your new break-in procedure. You may be on to something : shoot a hog, clean the barrel, shoot a hog, clean the barrel... Good shooting.

The red-dot sights are great for what they were designed for - man size targets. Most cover 3 or 4 MOA. Even the EOTec, with a 1 MOA dot, would cover 2" at 200 yds. Not what you need for p-dogs. Best to just use a scope with a fine reticle, although the illuminated dot reticle idea that was...

F.Y.I. Ron's Guide Service is a "canned" hunt. You are driven to a fenced acreage, where one hog per customer has been released. You then "hunt" for a hog.

The Bulgarian ammo that Sportsman's Guide sells is very high quality. Accurate & reliable. If you're hand loading, every rifle is a bit different and you'll have to experiment. For example, my rifle likes .311 bullets, but is inconsistant with .308's. My friends rifle, on the other hand, will...
