    Any place to get rifle stocked???

    I have an old Savage 99 that my dad gave me when I was 11. Long story short, it was his old rifle, but he quite using it because he broke the stock on it and went with a M70. When he gave it to me, he replaced the stock, it never really fit correctly. Over the past 10 years I have gone through...

    Tikka Bolt Actions - How Are They ???

    For the price, Great Rifle! Very accurate! I love mine! Like stated before, not a tinkering mans rifle as there is very little aftermarket, but not much to modify if you are looking for a informal range gun or a hunting rifle. Some people get into a twist about the use of plastic for the...

    Can't get the over travel screw back in...

    Thanks for the reply! I dissassembled the trigger assembly and found that the sear spring was blocking the overtravel screw hole causing the stoppage. The spring is buggerd up, but I can get a replacement cheap enough though...lesson learned!

    Dog is "Bird Shy"

    Opps...sometimes I think faster than I type... I have put her on pigeons when she was about 8 months, and she is now 11 months. She has always been birdy with wings and pigeons, but when I flushed them, she chased them. Never retrieved or mouthed them, but never was timid with birds like she...

    Dog is "Bird Shy"

    I took my Brittany out on pheasants for the first time yesterday, and sadly, she was very scared when the birds flushed. I would kick up the bird, and she would run in the opposite direction once the "pheasant druming" started. She could care less about the shot, only the bird flushing. Any...

    good 30-06 189 grain bullete for elk

    Nosler Partition. It just plain works. Federal Premium line is what I used to use before I stated handloads, and it was great factory ammo.

    Brittany won't point

    I have a 8 month old brittany that isn't pointing. I took her out on live birds for the first time today (piegons) and she found the birds, but just wagged her tail and sniffed them...Two out of three she actually flushed. :( I was surprised that there was not even a flash point. :confused: As a...

    Police officer turns back on man...REDUX

    No one got hurt or killed. (at least in the clip) Cops made mistakes. Take it, learn from it, do better next time.

    Best time of year to buy a shotgun?

    I don't think there is any best time for a new gun except when there is a slight sub model change. For example you would have been able to get a dirt cheap Rem 700 ADL when the SPS first came out. Used guns pop up like crazy after the season of anything that draws a big crowd like deer or ducks.

    Idiotic News Story - what would you do?

    I saw one of these on ABC once and thought "Lawsuite waiting to happen." Kind of like putting a motor cycle down...not if but when.
