    .303

    The Canadian Ross' rifles (military) were also in 303, but like a P14 it is worth much more than $100, but it most likely isn't one.

    270 Winchester for russian boar

    Almost any regular cup and core bullet (130gr +) should work in the 270 for hogs as it is the cartridge almost every bullet in the caliber was intended for.

    Looking for Anschutz qualities on a budget.

    Some of the old Russian Target 22's are available at CDNN. They also have a 22LR version of the Savage Mako for just over $200. The Russian toggle bolt rimfires are also a very good deal and usually quite accurate, but are just available in the US with the conventional hunting stock. There are...

    Gun/ammo taxes and wildlife conservation

    In most states this money just goes into the general fund as feedthehogs stated. You also should take into account that probably half of the funds were generated by people who are more likely shooters than hunters. State wildlife agencies are doing little to nothing to encourage the...

    303 Ok for brown bear?

    the 303 will be just fine in AZ. If you reload the Woodleigh is perfect as is the new Barnes 150 gr Tripleshock in 0.311". HSM used to offer the 303 load with a 200gr Grand Slam bullet. The 150-180 gr normal factory loads should also work quite well on black bears.

    Mauser 96 Striaght Pull

    I had one in the past, very good rifles. Relatively lightweight, good accuracy, trigger was good IIRC. It was a 30-06 also. $350 is a more than fair price, only concern is about spare parts, just look at the bolt and see how many parts it has. You will get even faster with the action after you...

    FN makes M16s for the US?

    Lists both contracts(FN and Colt) http://www.defenselink.mil/contracts/contract.aspx?contractid=3674 It's not exactly hard to underbid Colt (just look at what they did to themselves in the civilian handgun market.) They expect to be paid more for the horse logo I guess....

    Do I seek the 17HMR?

    It is going to be hard to guarantee the 1/4 MOA with the Ruger action, or really any 17HMR. 1/2 yes, 1/4 not so much. To get this level of accuracy you are going to have to measure and sort the individual cases by rim thickness. If you are going to go to that much trouble you might as well just...

    Help me buy a Safe

    How large is your gun collection, do you wish to store important papers/valuables(jewelry, gold,etc.), how valuable are the guns you will be storing inside. Not all gun safe are the same and realize that even safes just delay the crooks in reaching what is inside. For example most safes have...
