    M&P 45c

    I had one and went back to my Glock 30. I tried but could not shoot as well with the M&P. I tried the various backstrap options, but just couldnt find one that worked for me.

    Taurus M85 UL SS 2" 38 Spl +P

    Had one for years. Never a problem. I dont think you could do better for the money

    all around semi auto 12 ga

    Ive owned and shot most semi autos and I like Benelli best. The inertia system is great. Id recommend you give them a look.

    walker's game ear

    I tried them and wasn't impressed. They were OK on a still day but difficult with even a light wind.

    One Rifle One Load?

    I'm probably crazy, but I have one rifle (caliber) per game animal. 22-250 for varmints, 270 for deer, 7x57 for sheep and 338 Win for elk. When it is time to hunt, know which rifle to grab.

    .243 & 6mm questions, and the Colt/Sako Coltsman

    There really isnt much difference between them. You can find 243 ammo anywhere, but 6mm is a bit more difficult to find. Probably best to refer to a good loading manual for details.

    Rifle for kids

    I got my daughter a Rascal and when she grew it became my truck gun. Fits under the seat and comes in handy quite often.

    44 mag or 444

    Questions about lever rifles. Does anyone know the difference in drop between these two rounds at distances of 150yds or less? For short range hunting of small whitetails, is there really any appreciable advantage to shooting a 444?

    Elk hunting fitness

    I used to hunt above timberline in Colorado. I would always start training four months before season. The training that did the most for me was walking up and down stairs in a 25 story building, in my hunting boots, and carrying 50% more weight than I would hunt with. I would work up to three...

    New 870 vs older used 870 ?s

    I like the old Wingmasters. They just "feel" better. Would not even consider trading my 1976 Wingmaster for a new one.

    Value of these rifles...?

    I had a 99H in 30-30 a few years ago. Nice rifle but I had a heck of a time when I decided to sell it. Buyers kept telling me that 30-30 was not popular in in the 99 and the caliber kept the price down. Took a long time to sell it. Just for-what-it-is-worth.

    Rem Core Lokts

    My dad used core lokt all his life. As I grew up I kept switching to the newest (and more expensive) thing. He kept killing deer with one shot. Now that Ive gotten older, I shoot core lokt. Go figure....

    Anyone ever heard of a maker called Sporting Arms?

    Sporting Arms is the name of a really good gun dealer in the Dallas Area, but they dont mfg anything. Any chance it was just being sold by Sporting Arms?
