Any opinions on the quality and performance of the POF rifle's quality? I'm very interested in the idea of a piston driven SR-25 clone. I know the rifle's aren't on the market yet (anticipated delivery in May). Anyone with feedback on ordering an "unproven" rifle? Does POF stand behind the...
With the Sako 75 consider ring height. If you are using the Optilock bases and rings you will easily clear 44mm optics, even in the lowest variation. I am personally running medium rings and regular bases on my 75 Stainless Synthetic and clear 56mm optics.
I find the idea of the VX-L a...
...being involved in the business. The realities are that marketability is a global factor versus a localized one. Anyone that knows how to type www.****.com should certainly appreciate that. What do you think an "educated" buyer is? One who just walks in and coughs up whatever is asked...
Yea walk in pay retail.... That's the dumbest s**t I've ever heard. I'll never do that again unless a shop proves some loyalty to me! The realities of the biz is that there are few nice guys out there. Most will try to rake you over the coals and make 100% on any trade-in type transactions. They...
Another thing to note is there is a current ban on target shooting on BLM land due to fire hazard. You will notice signs along the road heading into the hills out of town.
With that consideration:
BLM is allowed when following other precautions and restrictions.
State land trust is a no-no...
If I had to guess the .270 and .300 WSM's are here to stay. The market reception for 7mm WSM has seemingly been pretty tepid. Going back to the commonality of loadings and availability, I might be a little nervous. All that said, it is a nice round. :) You definitely can find loadings that will...
7mag a step down over .30-06?? Ballistically, no. Especially after 250 yards. Up to 250 they are fairly close I guess. The 7mm mag is far flatter and packs more energy for equal bullet weights.
I am curious what the availability would be like in Austria though. I would guess the metric...
For what goes bump in the night: USP Fullsize in .40 with nightsights and a surefire x200 hanging off the rail. I choose this for several reasons. #1 is the .40 package has good power to capacity ratio (13 rounds). I like the safety and decocker setup as well as the ability to keep it in it's...
Good call! You'll definitely be happy with the regular 7mm Rem Mag.
The 150gr. loading of Winchester Ballistic Supreme Silvertip has been an absolute knockout on whitetails and muleys. The five deer i've harvested with that loading have all been immediate kills. 3 were no step, as if...
The Sako 75 Stainless Synthetic in 7 RUM is a pretty heavy shoulder hammer. I recently replaced the recoil pad with a limbsaver though and have yet to try it out. I'm hoping for some reduction. Honestly in all hunting scenarios I cannot remember recoil from the shot. Usually with your heart...
:neener: OK as long as were having fun with this... 7mm Remington Ultra Magnum. Of course finding ammo is most definitely going to be an issue!
I actually own both a 7mm mag and a 7mm RUM. I can honestly say that I wouldn't have purchased the RUM had it not been a "deal". The 7mm Rem Mag is...
On the subject of ARFcom... I just quit going. I tend to lurk and search for most of my answers. The attitude over there toward legitimate questions was unbelievable. Seems to be a lot of know it alls there.
The folks here have been nothing short of helpful and friendly. I've even made a few...

For me a Browning superposed has a balance that is unlike anything else. I recently saw a Belgian production in mint condition going for $1100 at the gun show. I'm sure with proper negotiating tactics it could come down to the right price point.
Of course I just saw that Dick Cheny...
The simple realities are that the media is spinning the story due to the timeframe for disclosure on the incident. There seems to be less discussion in regards to the actual events of the shooting itself.
Will the antis use this against guns, most certainly. Luckily, there has been no...
The bullet drop compensator is without question dead on. Sight at 100. Move to 300, change the turret and keep on chucking! Of course wind will come into play and I can attest that the BSA quality may be less than desired. I think a Redfield or Tasco Pro level scopes are much better for little...
Good points. That sounds like a near perfect setup. I think I'll be heading to Home Depot this weekend. Luckily the bookshelf option already is easily accomplished. I figure consolidating all the books to that room in full wall bookshelves is even better to reduce the clutter around here.
I...
The neighborhood is 7 years old. So far in the zip code there are no murders to date. We are somewhat removed from the freeway (approx 7 miles). Closer to the freeway the statistics are fairly bad. Many businesses have reported armed robberies, etc. Several shootings have taken place.
