    Remington 700 extractor damaging my cases?

    I've been having a problem with my new Remington SPS Varmint in .308, and after a bit of googling found a thread here which seems to describe my problem exactly. https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/extractor-damaging-my-cases.751996/ I took it back to the shop a couple of days ago...

    Hunting with an AR15 type rifle?

    A few of my local gunshops gave started stocking AR15 type rifles (so far only in .223), and I quite fancy getting one. There is a slight snag though. Here in Denmark I can only own a semi auto rifle with detachable magazine for hunting overseas. I know that these are used by a few hunters...

    Shotgun states - Why?

    I've heard that in some US states the use of rifles for deer hunting is forbidden, and that shotguns must be used instead. As an outsider, I have a few questions on the subject. Is there a sensible reason for the ban on the use of rifles? Surely the rifle is the ideal tool for the job...

    Winchester Model 670?

    I've just arranged to buy one of these in .30-06. From what I can gather, it's about 40 years old, and was Winchester's budget alternative to the Model 70 at the time. It seems pretty solid, and has a really smooth action and a nice trigger pull. I'm not overly keen on the stock though. I...

    Which Budget Rifle?

    All my guns have been second hand, so the idea of a brand new rifle appeals to me. I've been mulling over the pros and cons of a few different ones, so I thought I'd post here to see if anyone could give me some info that would tip the scales in favour of one or the other. Here are the rifles...

    Problems with crossing birds

    Hi guys, I was out with a buddy today shooting some clays, great fun despite the snow! I had a lot of problems with crossing birds though. After a few misses I set a clay up at about 20 yards, and tried mounting and firing. I smoked it with no problems. We then tried a few birds thrown from...

    Single action in .357?

    I'm thinking about getting myself a revolver and I really like the look of the Colt SAA, but unfortunately a real one is out of my price range. Luckily there seems to be a good few cheaper options open to me. My plan is to buy one in .38/.357 so I can use it on indoor ranges in the winter...

    Simmons Prohunter 3-10x44

    After finding one of these on special I bought one as a stopgap measure until I've got the money for something decent, and have a couple of questions. First of all, is it likely to be okay with a .30-06 or should I stick it on my air rifle instead? I'm planning on getting something with a...

    Whitworth with 1903 action?

    Hi guys, I've got a .30-06 sporting rifle which appears to have been built on a 1903 Springfield action. The barrel is marked Whitworth Rifle Company, Manchester England, and the only other markings I can see are the proof marks. Has anyone seen one of these before? Or know anything about...
