    Has anyone else flipped the script?

    You have not flipped the script, you are mainly taking a more scenic route to the 41 mag. Nice purchases.

    Lever action rifle - fast action, western in appearance, suitable for deer hunting, in a more ubiquitous caliber, and of a quality build. Which one?

    l like the 1886 big bore rifles in 45/70 or 45/90. Don't forget a Marling 336 in a 35 Remington caliber, or the 45 long colt out of a rifle can get to speeds of 1400 fps with a 300 grain bullet. Henry, Winchester, Mirouku, Marlin, Uberti, Cimarron, Pedersoli, all make what you want.

    My scope,Bushnell 3x9 broke...

    What kind of rifle setup and distance are you looking to shoot with the scope. I like Bushnell and they have a new one the match pro comes with illuminated reticle. I use the high end bushels on my rim firers to shoot at 200 yards. Also have one mounted on a 30-06 that came with my Savage...

    Days Like This...

    If you lived in Arizona you would be wishing you had days like those in your picture. Arizona is hotter than Texas and where I live we had more than 80 days of triple digit temps during the summer. A couple of times I was afraid to shoot my cast bullets when temps reached over 105ºF thinking...

    Do you weigh your bullets?

    Only bullets I weigh are 22lr before hunting season. I like to practice shooting off hand at 200 hundred yards a couple of months before deer season. I want to minimize as much as possible shooter error. I know that sounds absurd but I do it for me, gives me a piece of mind plus minimizes...

    22lr carry for defense??

    There is a reason that your wife loves the Kel-tec P17, it is a 22lr. In this case, assuming your wife does not have physical disabilities she would be suited to carry a different firearm. The G3C is a compact gun, and the recoil and gun flip after shooting is what she might not enjoy shooting...

    Scope for shooting goups

    I'm also a big fan of Sightron. I bought them when they were first introduced to the market. Bought 4 of the Big Sky models to mount them on my 22lr rifles. They are the 4-16X44 and use them to 200 yards. Wish they still made the Big Sky.

    Is Taurus a Good Brand for Revolvers

    I don't know about the revolvers or any present day firearms of the Taurus. I know that when I was a private in the army I wanted a Beretta but could not afford it. Instead I bought the Taurus 92FS and in 40 years it has not failed me. The reason I never followed up with a Taurus revolver was...

    Who had a reloading mentor and I’m looking for one local

    For me, I started with the ABC's of reloading along with ordering the CD's of RCBS reloading. You Tube has a ton of videos but not all are recommended by me. I am glad to see that you asked and got offered. This forum has some great people in it.
