    Remington 550-1

    I own many 22's - 62A's, 1890's, Win Model 52 (serial number under 1500), Savage, Rem 12 and a 550-1. The 550 was my dads purchased in 1948. Still looks new and shoots new. The most fun shooter I own - bar none.

    SPS Varmint in either 243 or 308 with the 26 inch heavy contoured bbl? I'd like your opinion. I'm thinking of getting one to punch paper at 1000 yards. Thanks.

    F Open Class with a muzzle brake

    I am thinking of getting a Savage Long Range Hunter in 260 Remington for F Class Open comp. It has a 26" barrell and an adjuctable muzzle brake. I know a muzzle brake is not allowed in F shooting but since the brake is adjustable, does that mean you can close the brake all the way and still...

    How do you describe yourself as a shooter?

    Like most, I started with a 22. Went in service and was top shot (rifle) in my flight (B-52 Tailgunner). Had to qualify with a 38 as an aircrewman and really liked the hand gun. Tried out for the base pistol team and made it. Mainly shot hand guns after that for the next 30 years. A...

    Got My First Evil Black Rifle Today!

    A couple of months ago I got my first black rifle. I saw a Mossberg 4X4 on gunbroker, it looked cool and it was black so I said about time. That coming from a guy with a safe full of Winchester Lever actions. My kids are proud of me.

    Model 70's...Am I Just Lucky?

    Back in the early 80's, when I first started collecting (lever Winchesters) I saw an ad for a Model 70 in the paper. Went to see the guy and it urned out to be a 1952 standard grade in 270 with a Weaver KV El Paso on it. The guy explained he had bought it new when he was much younger, shot...

    $200 gift in honor of a Vet - what to get?

    Beautiful decision. When you have the money, engrave something on it to your friend and tell your daughter to never forget him.

    Used Gun Checklist OR Pawn Shop Gun Diving

    Don't forget a good bore light. Absent that, fold a clean piece of white printer paper and take it outside and check the bore.

    Is the .22 Short dying?

    Am I shooting my Pre 64 Model 70

    too much. For about 8 months now, I have been shooting my beautiful Model 70 in 270 20 times once a week. It was only shot 15 times in it's first 59 years of life. So, that means that I have shot it appx 640 times over the 8 months. It gets merticulous cleaning.

    Have You Ever Had A ND?

    Yes. Back in 1976 I had just bought a new Ruger New Model Blackhawk, 7 1/2 stainless in 38/357. I was also just married. Was sitting on the couch with my new bride and dry fired out the (open) sliding glass doors. It was loaded with 357.
