    Looking at 308 Bolt actions

    I am very much a fan of medullar design firearms, in all platforms, ie, Glocks, AR-15s, Savages, etc. Contemporary Savage rifles are quite simply impressive. Cabela's carries a wide selection. The best part is, being a modular design, maintenance, repair or enhancing, is a piece-of-cake. JMHO.

    My application was approved in, I believe, 3 days. NFA sure is fun.

    Marmots, 17 HMR, 50 yards, ethical?

    I've used .22LR (Rem blue box match) to 175 yards for woodchucks, taking head/neck shots. I have to reservation taking the same shots with my new Savage M93 .17 HMR. But I will stick to head/neck shots. Geno

    Nice day at the Rimfire Range 5-3-18

    Congrats on an enjoyable day. My life-long favorite cartridge remains the "lowly" .22LR. Thanks for the post...it lifted my spirits! By the way, I just took delivery of my new PSA .22LR Upper. Rain kept me from the range today, but there is always tomorrow. Geno

    New Toy

    Sorry to see that you bought a .300 Blackout. I'm convinced that it is an addictive cartridge. It should be sold with a warning label: "Induces Grins; May Be Habit-forming". It's too late for me. Maybe you'll fare better. Geno

    Yugo Mauser Refinish

    I've not heard of them having collector value. If it will make it look nicer, I personally, would refinish it. JMHO, Geno

    just put on layaway a new marlin 336y 30-30 so is the 30-30 still bein used for deer and hogs today?

    I've seen quite a few deer and hogs fall to the "lowly" 30-30 and 35 Rem. I've hunted with both, but never had a shot (only doe were present, and no doe tag). They work well when used within their range limits. Have fun with it! Geno

    Varget/SST Range Report

    OP: FWIW...When you under-charge, you risk "detonation", instead of "ignition and rapid, controlled burn". It can be dangerous! Geno

    Remington 700 Heavy Barrel in 22 250 (Built in 1974) What is the Twist Rate ?

    Test some factory loaded, Remington green box, 50 grain, flat base, hollow points. I have had excellent results with that in a .22-250. Inside 100-150 yards, use flat-base. Past 150 yards, use boat-tails.

    Hearing protection when hunting?

    Me?! Only if it is electronic to enhance hearing. We had a stray cougar and black bears frequenting the central Michigan area where I hunt...the family farm. So, no, I tend to keep all senses as alert as I can. It catches one's attention to see big cat paw prints following along behind a big...

    Rings? Steel. Warne or Leupold, Base/Rail? Steel. Warne M1913. Bipod? Adjustable to the height of your desired shooting position. I have have Harris bipods for prone position in 6-9 inch, and 12-15 inch (I think it is). I used a Harris 24-27" for seated position. I hate the swivel type...
