I agree with a couple posts here. STAY AWAY from IL and IA. The only good thing my bow and slug gun are good for here in IL is coyotes.... Unless you get an antlerless only permit, then come on by!.... NEVERMIND...coyote hunting is bad too...just stay away!

Just did this with the one I shot over the last weekend... Breast the bird out and slice into about 3 inch pieces...you can vary thickness. Let it marinate in Italian dressing. Spread cream cheese over the breast pieces and wrap them in bacon. You'll have to hold everything together with...

Love mine! I've got a .300wsm Savage 12fvss. I replaced the stock with a Bell & Carlson Duramaxx stock. Shoots lights out with lighter grained bullets like 150 gr. Winchester Ballistic Silvertips. Groups open up a little bit with 180 grainer Ballistic tips and Accubonds, but still about 1"...

I had the same reaction with mine. They say you can focus it inside against a white colored wall...but, I couldn't get it to focus for me until I took it outside. Now it's clear!...still haven't shot with it yet, though...so, we'll see!

My father has had this .22lr for as long as I can remember and we shoot brick after brick through that thing...I'm sure you can wear out a barrel on a .22lr, but after 11 years I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe only if accuracy diminishes...but you said it still shoots good, so I don't think...

I know there have been a lot of talk about 10mm's and the Glock 20, etc...(I even started a couple)... But, what can I honestly expect for accuracy out of one of them. That is important to me because it will be a range gun and carried to the field (hunting-try to take a varmint every now and...

Thank you!

I have read that the .40 cal XD's can be changed to .357 sig...but, can a 9mm XD be changed to a .357 sig? I was wanting to get a 9mm (that's the cal. she wants as well...so I won't argue!) for my wife to practice with. Then when I use it, change to something with a little more uumph...Is...

If you were to have your choice of defending yourself with an AR-15 (.223) or a 40 or 45 in a handgun similar to a Glock, XD, M&P, etc...which would you choose? Which round would be more effective? I have an AR-15 w/ an Eotech...and found myself wondering if I would want to grab that if I...

Love mine. I have a 12fvss in 300wsm. All i did was change the stock to a Bell and Carlson Duramaxx. The thing is more accurate than I can shoot! All holes in the paper touch at 100 yards with 150 grain ballistic tips...with 180 grain bullets, it opens up a bit more...but still about 1 inch...

What is the difference between the Dan Wesson Pointman Seven in 10mm and the Dan Wesson Razorback? I called a local gun shop last night checking on availability and pricing for a Razorback and he said they don't have any of those, but do have the Pointman Seven in 10mm. I asked what the...

OK...I THINK have finally decided I am going to get a Dan Wesson Razorback. This will mostly be a range gun. Might try to take a coyote or something with it...but, mostly range. I have been wanting a 10mm for a while now. What goes with this? I guess I need something for more of a home...

Is there one?...that is any different compared to the other 1911's? I read from their website and they are all steel framed, etc. Is there something that is consistantly happening to them? Or...is the negative comments I hear from people just because it has the Taurus name on it. And most...

From users of both, is the 34 a more accurate gun? Are there any noticable differences between the two besides the longer barrel/slide?...like the trigger better in one than the other? Also...is an aftermarket barrel needed to receive good groups? Good enough groups for me are about 2" or...

If I got the Glock 20...would I need a different barrel (like a kkm, etc.) before I start to reload for it? I have been reading about case bulging.
