sorry folks, a friend moving out of state just GAVE me 883 rounds of .22lr, 50 rounds of .22 mag, and 40 rounds of .38 special. sooo, no shortage here. :fire:

i like to shoot the used propane campstove cylinders (the little green ones). there is no fire danger with lead bullets. if a little propane is left they take off like rockets or pinwheel away. i would recommend at least 75 yards from the cylinder as i shot one with a .30-06 once at 50 yards...

i have enjoyed the comments in this section. a lot of ranges face these problems. ours went to the expense to raise and thicken the berms, put sound reducing roofs over the shooting areas ( which made the noise for the shooters worse), and putting fence all around the range to keep out unwanted...

i enjoyed the article, but find the writer's assumption the the more virulent anti-gun people are truly interested in discussion/debate/or even conversation is at best unlikely and is disingenuous. the feinstein/bloomberg types do not want to talk about gun policy at all. their only interest is...

i had cataract surgery about 11/2 years ago, with about six months in between. first my right eye went, then the left. i shoot right handed so the scope was only a little help until i could not see at all clearly. there are two types of lenses: fixed focus and the newer multifocus...

i lost a case of .30-06 ammo to theft in the dallas ups hub when i ordered it online. the next case came thru fine. ups also left a rifle, which i had had repaired, on the front porch when it was sent back to me. no ring on the bell, no signature required, fortunately i went out to check the...

for dan parker: i skin my turkey by cutting alont the keel, peeling the skin back along the sides to the wing bases and knees and then cut all that off and cut the neck off near its base. that leaves the best part of the bird. i just cooked my spring turkey and am eating it now. back to...

i bought a cz 550 american safari magnum in .458 lott. it shot fine with the open sights at the range at 50 yards and 100. i then thought i would like to put a leupold 1-4 x 20 scope on it. i could not get the scope to zero at all, after using the cz rings. i read about another indiviuals...

the correct finnish pronunciation is as follows: sako--sa' (like in saw but no w)-ko (as in cold) lapua--la' (as in la di da)-poo-a' (no h sounds as there is no h) vihtavuori--veeh'-ta-voo'-o(long) -ree' (it is a 5 syllable word but can be slurred together in finnish the accent is...

took my saiga .223 to the range, inserted the magazine and could not load it. closer inspection showed i had brought the 7.62x39 magazines. i put paint patches on the 7.62 and its magazines so i can see when i get them out of the safe in dim light and match the correct rifle and...

i forgot to add i have many foreign made guns: tikka--3 cz--2 imi--1 saiga--3 ak47--1 steyr--1 :D

welcome to all our friends abroad. texas has some pretty relaxed rules for purchase and ownership of firearms, so it always seems strange to go abroad and hear how different things are. i went on a hunt to the south island of new zealand for my first international trip and had to check in at...

not to get into the pros and cons of the arguments here, but did no one look at the names of the three people involved? this is texas and there can still be a double standard where hispanics are concerned. especially since the shooter took off as he did. it is quite possible that if the...

great essay. it shows how little critical thinking is actually used by those who would "lead" us into this sheepherd utopia. just follow the leader, do not ask any questions and definitely do not go off on your own, lest you find out our truth is not so.:banghead:
