    416 Rigby M98 and Scope

    Need you pocket change... I'm looking at a M98 416 Rigby used rifle that has been re-barreled. The action has the peep sight and flag safety. I'm asking if there is a sure way to add to/modify the action for pivot or QD scope mounts? I'm told that whatever I may get done to the action, such...

    CZ 550 American Safari .458 Win. Mag.

    CZ Safari Mag Marius, I had a CZ 375 H&H and had several problems with the rifle; magazine jams and scope bases very off line. After returning the rifle and some gunsmith work, we got it to work well most of the time. I wanted to use it on dangerous game. I wanted 100% reliability, so I sold...

    30-06 replacement

    Nosler Partition Vern Humphrey, You are correct in your statement as this bullet remains a hallmark still. 1948 is its birth date and has been upgraded with better alloys and bonding ever since. Despite these virtues, however, it has a poor BC and hence looses velocity rapidly and drops...

    30-06 replacement

    50 to 500 yds JrBAKER90 If you are looking for a caliber capable between 50 and 500yds , I suggest you investigate the velocity of your round at those extremes and how the bullet will upset accordingly. To reach out to 500yds and be lethal we assume a high velocity round, perhaps much faster...

    First Duck Hunt- Ammo Question

    Tungsten DRSFMD - I suggest you should look into Winchester, Remington, Federal and Hevyshot as all 4 offer waterfowl ammo in the 12g/cc weight range. The exact combination of alloys varies from one provider to the other but this weight range is heavier than lead and if your on the bird will...

    First Duck Hunt- Ammo Question

    I shoot a lot of ducks; from early season teal to late season open water goldeneyes and scaup. I have days when I like the 12g/cc stuff because geese come in to play and to reach out and connect far. But I also have a baseline shell that covers alot of range and kills em dead. I suggest you try...

    Nice hunting! They do seem small in weight. What is the average meat yield for this venison?

    Duck Boats

    PATOCAZADOR Thank you for the reference. I have a dealer for this product close to home. He only has catalogue pics for now but usually gets inventory in the spring. Can't wait to sit in it to see for myself. For the RECORD, I hunt the St-Lawrence in Quebec and Ontario with sink boxes and they...

    Beretta 3901 problem

    Sammyspizza, I had the same happen to me lately. After the ''Divorce'' and moving, I kept on shooting but neglected the cleaning. Came a point where event heavy loads were not cycling properly. Took the gun apart, I mean all, stock off, trigger set...etc..The hard part to clean is the gas...

    Duck Boats

    I'm a sink box hunter looking for a duck boat that will allow me to shoot diver ducks on shallow shoals. The Sink Box (SB) needs 4'-6'' of water and is a killer to move around. However the SB places your head less than a foot above water while sitting and the birds really don't catch on until...

    Worried about crippling ...

    Blarby, I think you are starting to think about your shooting and this usually has the shooter measuring his lead and having a visual dialogue between the muzzle and quarry. The most important thing when shooting is confidence and good technique. The latter has been demontrated the other...

    Ducks in Argentina

    Hello, I have been looking at a possible dove duck combo hunt in Argentina. The dove are a pest and the duck are plentyful because they are not really hunted there. They limit your daily duck bag to 50 birds per gun that can be extended a little if you shoot on one of the guide's tag. Have...

    .30-06 options. Recomendations?

    The '06 I like what Savage is doing of late. They have been accelerating an accuracy program. Look around the web and at your local rifle range...They have really committed to detail. Can't go wrong for the price. OTOH, why the '06?

    The 16 Gauge

    Have any of you ever shot with the sweet sixteen? As a young boy, I learned to shoot grouse with the 16 and after my years in school and back to the field, a good 15 years later, the 16 was dead. I love a 20 in the field and shoot a 12 with alternative shot for waterfowl....A 16 would be sweet...

    Accuracy from commercial rounds

    SAV .250 The whole idea of my question was to see if there is a trend or pattern that could be distilled from the answers. I'm looking for a general appreciation. Thanks
