Well spoken. But will those in power listen. We need more of this in this country.

I have made a lot of shot for trap shooting. I used antifreeze and water mix for coolant. I dropped it about 1/4 inch to coolant. The shot wasn't perfectly round, but I couldn't tell any difference between it and factory loads on the trap line. They both busted targets. I talked to a guy on the...

Most of the Savage Axis I have looked at come with either a Nikon or Bushnell scope. Not a top line scope but serviceable. You might want to check on that.

Bought the wife a Savage Axis in 243. Very accurate and fun to shoot. Comes with a scope for about $400.00.

Depends on what needs to die. For snakes it's my TC in .410. Anything else it's my Ruger American in .223.

On my Ruger American the bolt is marked with the same serial # as the rifle. That could be a way to determine if it is the bolt that came with the rifle from Ruger.

One thing I have done to make punching holes in targets more fun is have a little competition. Once I am comfortable with their safety I have everyone pay a dollar for a target and 5 shots. They shoot 1 at a time and I score the targets. The high score wins the pot. Seems to go over big with the...

The Savage Axis comes with a decent scope. Not top line by any means, but it can be upgraded later as money permits. The website says a Nikon. Not sure witch model. I would go with .308 personally but caliber is a personal choice. A .270 or 30-06 would both be good choices also.

I shoot in the summer and spring when it is nice outside so I can reload in the winter when it is too cold to shoot. Or it could be phrased the other way. I enjoy doing both.

My wife is 4'9" and weighs about 100. We bought her a Savage Axis compact in 243. She shoots it just fine and very accurate. 243 is what I would recommend.

Had a great day Saturday. To celebrate my wife being sworn in as a US citizen we invited some of her Filipino friends out for a day of eating and shooting. I smoked ribs in the morning and shot 90 rounds through my mini 14 before they showed. After they all got there I arranged a little...

I have bought that ammo at Sportsmans warehouse for $21.99.

My daughter and her husband came out. We grilled steaks and corn and then blasted targets with my mini 14 and .308. Her husband had never fired a gun before and he had a blast. Looks like we got another one in our ranks.

Trap shooting is a lot of fun. I shot ATA for 5 or 6 years until a shoulder injury put me out for several years. Now money keeps me out for now. As for aiming or pointing my best advice is to do what works for you. I close 1 eye because if they are both open I see double birds. It can be a...
