    Car Safes: which are the best?

    I have a Bulldog in my truck. Nice product for the money. When you first get it, you may need to tweak it a little to make sure the lid overlaps the base properly, but its pretty simple to do. Installation is easy. The outer housing just screws or bolts to your vehicle floor. The box slides into...

    Winchester 94 22 thoughts

    One of my favorite rifles of all time. They've been out of production for some time and usually bring a pretty high price on the used market. I see them on gun broker in the &700-900 range. If you are looking for a nice plinker or small game rifle, and its in good condition, I'd snatch it up.

    Thoughts about the Kahr CW380?

    My cw380 has been flawless over about 800 round. It feeds hollow points, flat point and ball with complete reliability. That being said, I would still have a hard time recommending it to someone due to the numerous reports of problems with this model. It seems too hit and miss with the CW. I...

    Opinions On Gold Guns?

    You did ask for opinions, so here goes. To me, the only place a gold plated gun looks natural is in the hands of a pimp or a South American drug lord. And only if the pimp is also wearing a large Fedora and fur coat.

    What bullets would you use to shoot a 308 at 600 yards

    If you are talking about shooting steel, 600 yards isn't much of a challenge for a .308 with a decent scope and proper dope. 155, 168 and 175-8 will all work well. My go to load for out to 900 yards is the Hornady 178bthp match. Better BC than most other offerings other than the much more...

    Will universities know if you have a CHP?

    I can't answer the question if that information is public record, but as a graduate of a dental school that is part of a large liberal University, I can tell you this: most colleges and universities consider themselves gun-free zones. When I want on to teach at said university, carrying was not...

    Savage 10 FCP

    I have two Savage 10s also: a 223 10fp and a 308 fcp-k. The 223 is a half moa shooter and the 308 shoots 3/4moa. They both get shot a lot and cleaned infrequently. When the barrels are shot out Ill be able to either re-barrel them myself or have it done for less than $100 labor. Ive taken...

    Coat Holster for Concealed Carry

    Yep, what oldbear and ed Ames said. I have two vests with carry pockets in then and the weight of the gun causes that side of the garment to noticeably sag. Unless you're wearing a motorcycle weight leather jacket the gun is going to affect the drape of the jacket and obviously print

    Looking for CCDW option for my wife

    I've shot the ruger and the Kahr. I think the Kahr has a significantly better trigger and handles recoil better. If I didn't already own a Kahr K9 I would have bought one. With her small hands I think the grip size of the Kahr would work for her also. Tarosean has the right idea about renting...

    suggestions for a mid priced spotting scope

    Another vote for the Celestron 100mm Ultra. I looked through a lot of spotters at Cabelas and Bass Pro. The two best I found for under $400 were the Redfield and the Celestron. The Celestron was brighter, but its also massive. I found a nice Slim table tripod that hold it very well.

    opinion wanted on the 6.5mm creedmore

    Stubbicatt gave a very nice overview. I would jus want to add that Nosler is also producing 6.5 Creedmoor brass, albeit at twice the price of Hornady. Savage is chambering several rifles in 6.5 Creedmoor and almost all fall below your requested price point. I have their 12 long range precision...

    Lee pro auto disc and Unique...

    The chart that Lee supplies with the auto disk should be considered a suggested starting point. I find that the listed hole almost always throws lighter than it says. The bigger the flake or stick size of the powder, the bigger the discrepancy. Ball powders like Viht and Win work best for me...

    What should I get next?

    You'll be surprised how far that lb of powder goes. I assume you have bullets. Do you have a caliper? If not, that should be on your list. Get your loading tray, a vibratory tumbler, and some crushed walnut shell from Petco. You should be good to go. Enjoy!

    357 Sig vs 40 S&W for SD which do you prefer?

    Personally, I would PREFER not to get shot by either. I'm certain any aggressor you might encounter would feel the same way. I doubt they would be concerned with PF or standard deviation. Pick the one you like best and hope you never have to use it.
