    Deer Camp Guns.What are you seeing

    .308, 30-06 and a 300 WinMag pretty well cover the calibers. Guns used vary from semi auto and pumps to bolt action with all of them being scoped.

    Better Mental Health Screening

    Dr. B has it pretty well summed up. I worked as counselor in the private sector and in the prison system. Lots of reckless individuals diagnosing this and that because they can. Most are all to happy to treat symptoms with meds. The risks of misdiagnosing children is very real and especially...

    Recommend a non-electronic scale?

    Don't know about the current RCBS stuff but I too have an older 505 thats awesome. OHAUS made the scale that RCBS put their name on and they pretty much owned the manual scale market for many years. I have a very good electronic by MyWeigh thats quite trust worthy as well. I notice most of the...

    Kid's Rifle

    I went with Model Seven .308s for both my sons. I knew they would be used for large deer and black bears so it was important to me they had enough gun. Started out with light loads using 110g pills and they had no problems shooting quite well. As they grew we gradually increased the bullet...

    Chronograph trouble

    I had a similar experience with mine, sometimes it was fine and sometimes it wasn't. I suspect Reloadron has it nailed. I have a friend who had another type and was talking about how touchy his was. He rarely used the skyscreens on his because it seldom worked good that way. Next time out, I...

    Anti-gun News anchor gets his butt handed to him...REPEATEDLY

    Great job Keith. This video needs to go viral. I love how the interviewer was squirming and looking around for help. Absolutely the most defining interview I've seen exposing the media for what they are.

    30-06 vs 7mm rem.mag.

    I'd go with the 7mm stoked with the heaviest bullet possible in the Remington 700. I would use the 742 for things that cant kill me.

    I'm a left leaning weenie. My conclusion on guns.

    tulsamal sums it up pretty well. These people aren't stupid, well most aren't. They are master manipulators and really are no different that any con man. They use the same tactics. They do/say what ever it takes to win your confidence/vote and then continue on their self serving egotistical way...

    Riterd General McChrystal weighs in on the AWB...

    I too saw the Daily Show and thought this guy is severely out of touch with reality. Its a real shame to think that minds like his have ever been in a position to command. Its also a sad fact that many younger people get their information from Jon Stewart. Sounded like he was gonna to start...

    Ideal shot placement for deer

    I've shot a lot of deer over the years and have come to regard the mid to high shoulder hit as the most reliable for dropping them in their tracks. It's the point where the neck, spine and shoulder meet and anything in this area definitely disrupts the CNS. I've taken deer with many calibers and...

    Practice with airsoft or bb guns?

    I used a Daisy 880 Powerline for many years and it definitely was a plus for practice. The new ones aren't quite the same but still worth buying. A simple 4x scope and good pellets made the thing shoot amazingly well. My practice was mainly offhand just shooting pine cones or whatever I could...

    *** 10-round magazine limit argument ***

    10 just happens to be a number that is significantly smaller than 30. Its only the beginning and everyone know that tactically speaking, magazine capacity is fairly irrelevant when the targets are unarmed defenseless people. A skilled shooter with a single shot could be very effective in that...

    Mayor Bloomberg is major supporter of gun rights

    All I can say is WOW!!! This guy has absolutely no shame and might just be the most delusional politician alive.

    Are modern reloading manulas too conservative?

    IMO there are just so many uncontrollable and relatively unknown variables involved that reloading manuals have to be conservative. Chronographs are great tools but its easy to get caught up in numbers and speed. If everyone focused on cloverleafs instead of numbers I suspect it would be a much...
