Hey y’all, My eyes are getting a bit older and I’d like to put a scope on my AR, I also would like to put an offset red (preferably green) dot sight on for closer shots. The longest shots I would take would be 200 yards, so I’m thinking a standard 3-9 power scope would work… any...

I took it out today and it outshot me! Very happy. Question about shells, it says 2 3/4 only on the side…. Would it be bad to shoot higher velocity target loads out? Something like 1300 fps ? Would hate to beet up the gun!

😂 I always use the excuse that the “sun was in my eyes”….. even when it’s at my back

I had a great morning! Have been looking for an autoloader shotgun to use for skeet and sporties… have been doing great with my 870 but struggle on doubles the littlest bit. I found a Remington 1100 “competition” model that takes 2 3/4 only. Has a 30 inch barrel and came with a nice case. Was...

Thanks for the incredible amount of info guys! I happened across a smoking deal on a Remington 1100 “competition” model for 2 3/4 shells only… passed on the 11-87. Can’t wait to try this puppy out!

Hi all, Looking to make the jump into a semi auto shotgun for sporting clays and skeet shooting. Found a really nice Remington 1187 for a good price, but when I checked it out it has “special purpose magnum” on the side of the receiver. It says it’s chambered for 2 3/4 and 3 inch shells (12g)...

Hi y’all, I’m a bit disappointed as I have a cool sporterized Smle with a non adjustable rear sight. Windage is off so I bought a sight that said it was windage adjustable. Unfortunately the wheel only turns a little and it doesn’t move. I suspect the pin in the middle there is the culprit. Is...

Howdy all, I bought a sporterized enfield from a friend. He had it at the range and attempted to adjust windage on the rear sight and said the screw wouldn’t move and started to strip. After soaking it in oil (and trying a little heat)… I only managed to make the screw worse. Any ideas???

That was an excellent and thorough reply to all my questions! One question with the chokes, is it unusual for someone with a single barrel to bring with them a set of chokes and swap them out during a sporting clays outing? If so, let’s say which 3 would you suggest having in my pocket ?

by break the first target always do you mean take 2 shots at it if necessary instead of moving onto the 2nd clay of the pair?

Hello guys and gals, Not sure if this is the right place or if it should be in a different category. Looking for advice… I’ve become a huge fan of clay shooting- sportys in particular. I can usually score in the high 30’s-low 40’s depending on the difficulty of the course. I’d like to get...

Thanks for all the help folks! I used the tandemkross swage tool on it and now it is chambering perfectly! Very easy tool to use, highly recommend!!!!

Wow thanks for the lightning fast responses!!!! I just ordered this from these cats: https://www.tandemkross.com/ChamberMadeChamberIroningSwage I’ll report back after I use it. My only under-experienced question is this……will the imperfection of the chamber “face” allow for any blowback of...

Howdy guys and gals, I bought a used Remington 597 and it will not fully chamber a round into the barrel. I’ve tried other magazines as I know this is a problem with these. I took it down and discovered this “dimple” on the upper end of the chamber. It almost looks machined, but I don’t...

The small amount of hunting I do is goose hunting with my buddy... Is it way off track to Hunt geese with an o/u?
