I have heard that the 165 Gr Bullet is the best all around bullet weight for .30-06 Springfield, and that 130 Gr is the same for .270 Winchester. Do you guys have any opinions about "optimum" bullet weight by caliber?

It wasn't ever a huge issue. I just wanted to know. I have been wanting a bigbore for a while, and the 444 wass the biggest I could think of. So I wager I need to go down to 375 or take AE. I think I may try the AE. A 444 is much more up my alley. Thanks, Len

I know that the marlin levers are really great firearms. I am actually wondering about the Winchester big bore that was offered in that caliber. Did they offer the 444 big bore in a non angle eject, or even sans safety? all the ones I have seen listed have had both of those features, and the...

I would like to chime in, seeing as I had to spend quite a bit of time looking myself. I have two winchester lever actions, both made before 64 (model 94, and model 64) love them both, but they aren't known to be the "safest" starter rifles. I looked high and low at lefty bolts, and found that...

Thanks lonniemike. I think when I get this rifle I will pick up a single stage reloader. That way I can make my own. Now I just need to get one, and start on it. I will probably have my gunsmith make me up a new stock that has a cheek rest for lefties, and then keep the original. Then find...

Revised After reading some of the posts, I updated my first post, and I am extremely thankful for the info so far. I am probably going to try to get a K31 and find that left hand conversion. I fount one here: http://www.swissdagger.com/ But I have not been able to locate the St. Marie...

Hello. I am a left handed shooter and I am looking for anyone's experiences with any straight pull bolts. I know that there are several that have been made, and I just want to know more about all of them. Especially if they were ever made in a left handed version. I know a little about...

Hello everyone, I am new to the thread, and have a question for people who have been reading and such about guns long before me. I am left handed, and as such I would like to purchase a left handed bolt action rifle. I am pretty dead set on a Winchester Model 70 in .308 Winchester. However, I...
