    the perfect 30-06 for hunting

    I was in this same situation a while back, and I picked an FN made Winchester Model 70 Featherweight Deluxe, and couldn't be happier. Here's me and my baby!

    Dove Reports?

    There weren't nearly 1/4 the birds at the public field as last year here in Kentucky, probably due to the heat. It didn't really pick up until 5PM, which makes for a long day, especially since we got to the field at 7:30AM to get a good spot (season didn't officially start until 11AM). That...

    Got drunk and bought a gun on GB....

    You made off way better than one of my friends from college. He got drunk one night and woke up the next morning to find that he had bought $50 in Pez and a gold-plated Pez dispenser online!

    Got my first gobbler this morning!

    This morning, my dad and I hit the woods for another day of turkey hunting. It's the second to last day of the season here, so I was really hoping to at least see one gobbler. It's been so bad with all the rain we've had, and this is my first season of turkey hunting, so I've been getting...

    Taking a Winchester Model 70 stock from matte to gloss?

    Thanks to everyone else for the additional ideas/input. I think I'll keep it factory, just so that I don't end up ruining anything. When I really get that glossy itch, I'll just look for an old used rifle in glossy. I remember when I was little, shooting an old .243 bull barrel rifle that was...

    Taking a Winchester Model 70 stock from matte to gloss?

    Could I use something like Tru-oil and just apply it over the factory stock?

    Taking a Winchester Model 70 stock from matte to gloss?

    Thanks for all of the input guys. I think I'll end up just leaving it as it is, or maybe try some light buffing with silicone like Horsemany suggested. I definitely don't want to change the stock style itself, as it's one of the main reasons I bought the featherweight. I love the Schnabel...

    Taking a Winchester Model 70 stock from matte to gloss?

    Hello, I just purchased a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight Deluxe (the 2008 limited model, FN built). It's really a beautiful rifle, but I've always loved glossy wood stocks, like on my dad and grandpa's old deer rifles. I was wondering if there was a way to take my M70 from matte stock to...

    Anyone buy from Bud's Police Supply?

    I was glad to recently find out that civilians that work for police agencies are also eligible for their pricing. I ordered an M&P for $399 on Monday and walked in and picked it up on Thursday. Can't beat that!

    Elk in Virginia

    Correct, it was Kentucky. My dad, who ran Kentucky's deer program for 25 years, started the elk program. Now if I could just get drawn for a tag...

    Just got a PF9, have questions

    As defense minister said, the extractor screw holds the firing pin in place. The reason you shouldn't dry fire it without the snap caps is that dry firing will start to shear the extractor screw since there's nothing to cushion the firing pin and keep it from striking the screw.

    Had a great time today shooting.

    Many times a sticky Mosin bolt is caused by cosmoline built up in the chamber, especially if it's after the first few rounds (when the cosmoline heats up from shooting). Check youtube for videos on how to remedy this.

    SHOT Day 2 - Kel Tec Shotgun

    The one thing that concerns me about this shotgun is that if you hold the trigger to the rear after shooting, then cycle the pump, the trigger does not reset, even if you release it. You must release the trigger, then cycle the pump to reset it. Here's a video to demonstrate...
